What's New in Flatout ATC

3.3.0

September 5, 2026

Three new Gauntlets and a new kind of check ride. Gauntlet: Heathrow runs the night bank on both parallels. Gauntlet: Manchester is the segregation check on two close parallels, built from the real AIP, and Manchester arrives as a full airport too. North Sea Watch is the first rescue Gauntlet: Stavanger Sola, the Johan Sverdrup platform 99 miles offshore, twelve rungs, cooperative searches with several helicopters, search patterns over a drifting datum, a state aircraft on station, and a night finale in sea state six. Two new commands come with it: Search Pattern and On Station. Ground Endless on Vancouver, Solberg and Scottsdale: no finish line, arrivals that build and ease, a personal best per airport. Also: helicopters spin their rotors on the radar, a weather marker on the data tag shows which aircraft are dodging a storm, an arrival beside a departure climbing off the parallel is no longer scored as a mid-air, the Gauntlet's out-of-plays message now offers the base game instead of a dead end, and more of the game now reads in German, Spanish, French and Italian.

Inspired me

First comment ever, this game really inspired me to learn more about aviation knowledge, thank you Craig

Response from developer

Wow. Thank you. That means so much. Please engage through the developer board if you have questions, suggestions, problems or just want to learn more. I read and respond to everything. Craig

More ground

We need more ground airports and we need it endless ground but 5 stars I love the game

Response from developer

Thank you so much. I put in a lot of work as a solo developer. I will release endless ground in 3.3. If you go to the developer board and make a suggestion for which airport would be a good next ground layout, I will build it into 3.5. Craig

It’s not free

Nowhere in this description does it tell you you have to pay to unlock the game

Response from developer

Thanks for the note. The product page does carry Apple's In-App Purchases label, so the game is listed as offering them. Here is what you have without paying anything. Three airports are unlimited: Atlantic City, Solberg and Teterboro. All twelve academy lessons are also fully open. The larger levels get three plays a day, and there is one live shift a day working real traffic over New York, London or Atlanta. There are no adverts anywhere. If you want the rest, the Base Game Unlock is one payment for all 50+ airports, every mode, and every difficulty from Novice to Master, plus unlimited live traffic. Yours forever, no subscription. The Watch story seasons are separate and entirely optional, and episode 1 of every season is free for everyone. Worth another go if you have the time. Three plays a day on the big fields is enough to tell whether the job suits you, and Atlantic City, Solberg and Teterboro cost nothing at all. Craig

Amazing

Truly, an amazing game this is now my new favorite

Response from developer

Thank you, that means a lot. If you hit anything that feels off, or you have an idea for the tower, the support link in Settings comes straight to me. Craig

A great addition for the mobile ATC scene

Just wanted to say that this game has a great balance of depth that makes it really enjoyable to play. The recent QoL additions have made the game even better and I hope you keep it up :)
Only thing I’d really ask for is upping the number of aircraft on certain areas depending on difficulty like London for example, which feels pretty empty. I find myself using the fast forward button pretty much every time to get all the aircraft in at once, which causes collisions semi often sadly due to them spawning in each other. Other than that, great game!

Response from developer

I really appreciate the review, and the engagement in the game. I posted a long thought about London (and similar levels) on the developer board. Check that out there. And you inspired me to make what I think is an important change. Thanks again. Craig
