Not bad but might get confusing pretty quickly.
I’m bumping this back, because with a few other requests I think ground controlling can really be improved. Here are some useful links. (I’m voting for them all and hopefully other people will to).
Hello Community!
During my brief stint as an IFATC, I’ve noticed that Infinite Flight is missing vital commands that would make controlling ground frequency easier for both pilots and controllers. Taxi instructions!
Why Do We Need This?
Suppose you are controlling a busy airport. By utilizing taxi instructions, you can tell planes exactly where to go on the ground, and you could focus on the tower or anything else. This would be useful for putting departures on one taxiway and arrivals on an…
I know in the past people have discussed, ATC may direct aircraft to gates but that would be to complicated.
In this idea, in your flight plan you can book a gate at your destination airport. If someone has booked a certain gate already it won’t appear.
So when the aircraft lands at the destination airport, he may ask, “CP760 Request taxi to parking” the controller can reply by tapping “taxi to”- list: runways, parking & the booked gate number. Once the person leaves the game it will unlock ag…

In Infinite Flight, ATC does not have the power to guide you what taxiways to use unlike real life. However, if it was implemented like how it is at most airports it would be quite confusing at first especially for beginners. So I thought why not use the state of the art “Ground Traffic Management System” which is relatively new and make it’s launch at OMDB (Dubai Airports).
It’s basically a series of lights on taxiways to guide pilot’s to the runway and to avoid conflict…
I’ve listened to a few clips of ATC and I noticed ground controllers would tell pilots to follow a specific aircraft on the taxiway (i.e. Follow Emirates A380).
It would be nice to have the ability to tell pilots to follow another aircraft. It would add more realism to the sim but I have a feeling it would also curb the issue of aircraft racing other aircraft on the taxiway or trying to get the right of way first.
This could work for ATC by selecting a miscellaneous message with “Follow X Airc…

Yeah this is a great idea! It will help for the ATC for sure.

This is the greatest and useful feature infinite flight can ever have, which is the reason why I have given my vote to help get this on infinite flight!
