Not sure where to post it, but there is a fun little game from NASA that allows you to play as an ATC. It's a free download for iOS, not sure about others.

There are also two links in the game to youtube videos.

One shows the 24 air traffic over the world animated in a short time (beginning from 7PM EST), and the other shows the 24 hour air traffic over the USA (from 7PM EST) in 60 seconds.

It's pretty cool to see how the TATL traffic flows, how Australia nearly goes dark at night due to curfews, how the USA "wakes up" first in Memphis and Louisville, etc.

And the name of this fun little game is ... ?

Seems like a good fact for the OP to include, no?

Do you like movies about gladiators?

Uh, why not just go to the app store (the only place you can get a game for iOS) and type in "NASA ATC" in the search. The only game that will show up. Heck, even just typing NASA will find the app.

IIRC, the game is called "Sector 33" or something like that, but anyone who owns an iOS device who's geeky enough to want to play an ATC knows how to find an app in the store!

Yes it is called Sector 33 and what is really cool about it is that it appears to be Sector 33 at Oakland Center, ZOA. The fixes, from the screen shots, show the different fixes in ZOA 33's sky. I deal with ZOA 33 daily at work and this looks like it might be a fun game to try!!

It's pretty good! I tried it out and it gives people a good idea about the mental math controllers need to do!
