Serious simmers do not use the built-in ATC of MSFS. And
the product is still supported, although it is no longer
under active development. Were it to disappear, there are
alternatives such as X-Plane (not a pretty alternative,
I'll grant).

But none of this has anything to do with ADS-B.


Which means as a MSFS gamer you have no clue what ADS-B is,
how it works, or what the next step in the system is.


The poor gamers don't know what they don't know.
