Computers have been talking for almost 40 years. Anyone remember "Kennedy Approach"?

I do!!! Commodore 64.

Disappointing that the video only shows the first board, though I suppose there are probably plenty more videos out there.

Un-disappoint yourself

Select the Commodore virtual keyboard.
Use the letter key matching the aircraft you want to work.
Use the real keyboard to vector:

• Arrow up and down to climb/descend.

• Arrow left and right to turn.

• Left CTRL key to give the selected clearance.

Neat Unfortunately it doesn't work that well, it seems to crash anytime it would do anything that requires accessing the disk in the original game, like move to a different airport, or even go on to the next board...
