Houston · Field elevation 46 ft · 3 runways · Northeast Flow and Southwest Flow and Southeast Flow and Northwest Flow
William P. Hobby brings Houston into the scope. Hobby Tower mixes Southwest jets and business arrivals across intersecting Houston runways.
You work Hobby Tower. Northeast Flow lands 4 and departs 4. Southwest Flow lands 22 and departs 22. Southeast Flow lands 13R and departs 13R. Northwest Flow lands 31L and departs 31L. These roles are gameplay choices, not a sourced preferred-flow plan. Eligible arrivals receive a modeled 50% share across 11 supported STARs. Published departures supplement assigned headings. Eligible IFR departures receive a modeled 50% SID share across 17 supported SIDs.
The Busy tier mixes Southwest, Delta, American, ExecJet, Flexjet and GA. Scheduled service 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 Center handoffs use an unpublished neutral frequency.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.
