Sector 33

It’s a stormy Friday evening in Northern California as the evening rush of air traffic fast approaches the San Francisco Bay Area. All the flights going to San Francisco airport from the east pass through “Sector 33” – YOUR Sector of the airspace.
As the lead air traffic controller for Sector 33, you must merge the arriving planes into a single traffic stream as they pass over Modesto, CA on the western edge of your sector. The planes must be properly spaced and arrive over Modesto as soon as possible. Every minute you delay a plane during the traffic rush, that delay is passed on to ALL the other planes flying behind it. Although time is of the essence, to assure safety, the planes must NEVER violate minimum spacing requirements.

Can you handle Sector 33?

Simple yet addictive. All you do is calculate which aircrafts start ahead and which are behind. If an angle route is required due to weather you just add 3 to that route. Only need to use two speeds 300 and 600 to get 100%. The rest are useless. Wish it had more maps.

I like the game, but I only have a 4.5 inch diagonal screen on my HTC ONE. The playing area is only 0.75 inches by 2 inches. I can see it well enough, but my fingers are too fat for the 2 plane problems and I can not believe how congested it would be with 5 planes. This is a big screen game.

I love this app...not really fair to call it a game. Fantastic concept. This is so much more. It's not the mindless matching of gems, shapes, colors etc. Fantastic Air Traffic Controller simulation with point of safely navigating and landing aircraft. Fantastic application. Please add more missions, if you will. If I could rate higher than 5 stars I absolutely would. Had no problems downloading or opening the application, smooth play, highly realistic...sure it's not the real thing BUT...darn close.

Samsung Galaxy s5 - crashes immediately when pressing "play." opening screen does not look like picture on app page. Text overlaps.

I have new respect for controllers after playing this. I only wish there were more levels to play.

It just wouldn't load, if you fixed it I'd probably change my rating

Can only reach levels 2a, b, e and f. Other levels are unreachable because of view that looks like extreme zoomed in. No scrolling possible in that screen also.

Did not refuse the TOC for the app created by NASA headquartered at Moffett Airfield ( 2 jokes back there) but it won't work after that.

I installed this app but it won't open. Have no idea if it's fun or not. Very disappointed.

Unfortunately this doesn't work on my galaxy s5. I was so excited too

Uda. M. Jun 13, 2014     

This game is very easy to see, but very difficult to play. I love this game soo much. Thank you NASA...

May not have played all of it but it's amazing till now

Well this is probably the budget version but at the same time it is probably more realistic. But this game definitely brings back memories. United one zero right say heading and altitude. Thank you NASA and thank you Andy Hollis.

No in game settings menu and the App doesn't keep device awake. All said, this is a good start, but hopefully further updates are on the way.

Get perfect solution but app stops with error when there is perfect spacing

Fra. W. Nov 25, 2014     

This app can't open on the S4. The Apollo computers had less processing power than my Galaxy S4 maybe NASA should catch up with the Galaxy S4 seems like it's more complicated for them to make a app work on a Galaxy than making man work on the moon....okay I have to admit a galaxy is more complicated than the moon so it's understandable in a way.

I have prefect spacing and I get zero points, yet in the previous level I have one plane trailing behind and I get 270 points. Is there an order in which they have to be in?

Men. M. Jul 17, 2015     

As soon as I click play it says sector 33 has stopped working

EXTREMELY HORRIBLE KEEPS EXITING OUT OF THE GAME

Ash. L. Aug 12, 2015

App can't open at all on the s4

Pac. H. Apr 25, 2013     

I really like the radar-y screen, I've been looking for something like this for a while

When you fix it ill rate what it deserves

Luc. P. Jan 6, 2015     

There is a bug that shows really big buttons to choose the levels, so I see only the first four, can you fix it?

Mah. B. May 26, 2015     

What about heading and height of the aircraft's if we want to ask to be on that height....

Raj. S. May 28, 2015     

Seriously? When i press any button in the game it immediately crashes. I am using a samsung galaxy note 3.
