vatACARS/plugin
vatACARS is designed to enhance the functionality of vatSys, a popular air traffic control simulation software, by integrating ACARS capabilities.
- Real-time Communication: Facilitate real-time text-based communication between air traffic controllers and pilots within vatSys.
- vatSys Integration: Seamlessly integrates with vatSys user interface, ensuring a smooth user experience.
