STEADY TIER TOWER GA MAJORITY
CONTROL KEFD NOW Free. Runs in your browser. No account.

Ellington brings Houston into the scope. Ellington Tower handles modeled civilian GA beside NASA and military tenants on three surveyed runways.

You work Ellington Tower. South Flow lands 17R and departs 17R. North Flow lands 35L and departs 35L. Northeast Flow lands 4 and departs 4. Runway 22 Flow lands 22 and departs 22. These roles are gameplay choices, not a sourced preferred-flow plan. Eligible arrivals receive a modeled 50% share across 8 supported STARs. Published departures supplement assigned headings. Eligible IFR departures receive a modeled 50% SID share across 17 supported SIDs.

The Steady tier mixes ExecJet, Flexjet and GA. The general aviation role is sourced; business operator selection, aircraft, traffic weights and cadence are modeled. Center handoffs use an unpublished neutral frequency. Terrain, MVA and MSAW are not modeled.
