Flying has become a bit nerve-wracking almost anywhere you go around the world. Luckily, Majesco is fighting fear with education, and they want to teach us all how to be air traffic controllers in Air Traffic Chaos for the DS. Or as Majesco VP deftly explains: "Air Traffic Chaos means fun is taking off from Terminal A."

Players manage all air traffic and gate assignments for 14 airlines through various weather conditions, so why the game includes Rumble Pack support should be self-explanatory. Disclaimer: without any pretty pictures, we don't know if the game will feature a classic green radar display or any scenes from Pushing Tin. Here's the full press release with some additional info:
