Five airports in Ontario, Canada: Niagara, Hamilton, London, North Bay and Toronto. Each airport has its own Competitive leaderboard. Meet the airports.

No. You do not fly the planes. You are the controller, routing every arrival, departure and flyover. It does not connect to any flight simulator.
No. Vector Tango is a game, not training or test prep. If you are curious about the job, start with the official NAV CANADA and FAA pages. Honest answers and official links.
A table is enough. Grab the board to turn it, lift it or resize it, from coffee-table size to the size of your room.
