This is a pack of 10,000 credits for AiTC, the voice-based virtual air traffic control system for VFR flight simulation, currently available for Microsoft Flight Simulator and X-Plane.
An AiTC account is required to use this pack. You can create one for free at aitc.aero, where 1,000 credits are also offered on sign-up so you can try the service before purchasing. Please be aware that, at this stage, AiTC is available only in French and covers flights at airports located in France.
AiTC uses AI technologies similar to those behind conversational agents to enable natural, open-ended voice exchanges with virtual controllers directly from the cockpit. Once the application is connected, the push-to-talk button and radio become the only interface: the pilot speaks as in a real situation, and the controller responds based on the actual flight phase, aircraft position, weather, and surrounding context. The system is specifically designed for VFR flying in French airspace, integrating official aeronautical data and the published instructions of each French airfield (circuits, reporting points, local procedures) so that exchanges faithfully reproduce the real complexity of VFR operations.
Because the AI computations cannot run locally on a standard PC, AiTC operates on remote servers and uses a credit system rather than a subscription. Credits never expire and are only consumed when the application is actually in use, in proportion to the volume of exchanges with the virtual controllers. As an indicative reference, 1,000 credits correspond to roughly 4–5 regional flights or 1–2 long or complex flights, though actual consumption depends on the length and complexity of each session.
- Operating system: Windows 11 (the application is provided as an executable).
- The Visual C++ Runtime libraries must be installed (an installer is bundled with the application if needed).
- Flight simulator: Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 or Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Support for X-Plane is available but currently experimental.
- Joystick or controller with at least one free button to be assigned to the push-to-talk function.
- Microphone and audio output: a headset is strongly recommended for the best voice recognition and immersion.
- Stable internet connection: required at all times during use. AiTC performs its AI computations on remote servers, so a reliable broadband connection with low latency is essential for smooth voice exchanges.
