I Echo the sentiments of everybody in this post. The reason why offline ATC exists are for a host of reasons and too numerous to mention in this post. Don't get me wrong, Pilot Edge is good but it has a monthly costs associated with that. And more times than not the monthly cost is why most people do not use it. As with everything else, money is everything. And for those of us who are on a fixed income, having monthly costs become overwhelming.
I acquired TG in the hopes that it would be better than WT3x and X-Life Deluxe. Sadly the only benefit in purchasing the product (that I have found) is the ease of installation which as advertised is easier than World Traffic 3x.
Now for the north of $50 USD the users who paid for this product, I feel it should've had a robust ATC component with it. I was going to do a video on this topic for my YouTube channel Dionm01, but I elected not too. I know development is hard at times and I did not want to shed bad light on the developers. But from what is offered it lacks a justification of the cost.
The big elephant in the room is having any traffic product which is able to create on its own ATC traffic routes on any given Airport (small or large, popular or unpopular) to allow the traffic flow. I was hoping this product would auto generate traffic routes when an Airport does not have them. This is the biggest Achilles heel for all traffic programs that has not yet been overcome.
I do not know why the developer cannot create some kind of algorithms that would read the taxiways, runway center line or Airport boundaries to produce taxi routes which in turn would allow traffic flow of aircraft. Maybe this idea is too hard for developers to do, I really don't know. But until this taxi routes issue has been resolved, frankly I just would not recommend any traffic generating program unless of course you want strictly traffic just in the air, then any traffic program will work, including this one. Or if you want to go real cheap than just use Live Traffic, it's free and at least it puts traffic in the air. One man's opinion Dion Markgraf
