This is quite an interesting idea, although a bit speculative at the moment, because this is beyond the current stage of code development. One alternative possibility would be to work with separate scenarios: 1) Human Multiplayer, Human ATC only,, no AI traffic using voice comms; 2) Human Multiplayer, plus AI traffic, Using AI ATC, and predefined text messages; 3) AI traffic, only, plus AI ATC. More variations would be possible, but quite a bit more development needs to be done.
