Hey everyone! We’ve got a new feature that we’re excited to share with you. We’re once again pushing the boundaries of what’s possible to give you that ultra-immersive flight sim experience. Let’s jump right in.
Available for ALL Premium customers as of now!
We’re introducing a feature we like to call Flight Line. This lets you communicate with Air Traffic Control directly from your phone, using text or WhatsApp messaging. No more worrying about a running sim or sitting at your computer. You can file or pick up an IFR clearance, check the ATIS, or ask for weather updates - all from your phone!

And the best part? It works even if your sim is off. While your PC boots up, you can file your flight plan on SimBrief, pick up your clearance, and be all set to go.
Traffic injection remains our top priority, and consumes the vast majority of our engineering resources, but we ALSO continue to do what we've always done - which is innovate and be opportunistic when our roadmap makes small, adjacent features a simple reality.
