My son just purchased / installed Tower 2011 and being a real world pilot, it has caught my interest. Some things to note about it though, and wondering if they will ever be addressed / updated...? I still own a copy of the "original" Tower (about 14 years old now) and find it an excellent program, although it is a bit outdated. It has commands and graphics that Tower 2011 does not have!
My comments below are based on the original "Tower" and is mostly a comparison between the two.
A downward view is nice, but a "Tower" view would be MUCH better!
Tracking aircraft view would be nice.
More commands would be welcome! I attempted to have an incoming flight inform me when he was 3 miles out, but that does not seem to be a valid command in Tower 2011.
Understandably this program is already 3 years old, are there any updates planned for it?

Potential install issue with FSUIPC6
in FSUIPC Support Pete Dowson Modules
Posted
AWESOME product! Been a registered user for many years! But I recently installed FSUIPC6 and ran into a myriad of issues!
I have P3D v4 and 5 and I performed the FSUIPC install for both.
My system has two hard drives. Both P3D v4 and 5 are on the C drive. However, "My documents" is residing on the D drive
When I ran the installer, it correctly generated the FSUIPC6 directory on the D\documents directory (where it places the user documentation) AND correctly created both "add-on" folders and the xml files into the respective Prepar3D v4 (and 5) Add-ons folders in my Documents on the "D" drive. HOWEVER, it proceeded to create a new "Users\Terry\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons" on the C drive. (Granted, the "C:\Users\Terry\Documents" may have already existed from something else previously, I'm not sure about this)
I've spent all day troubleshooting why it wasn't utilizing my original fsuipc(x).ini file that I have extensive profiles in. Once I discovered the incorrect new "Documents" folder on my C drive, I transferred my original.ini file to it and it works wonderfully.
My issue is the installer should not have created a new users\my docs on my C drive but utilized the existing one on the "D" drive.
Hope I conveyed my issue properly here.
