✈️ Multithreaded Air Traffic Control Simulation

A C++ console-based simulation of an Air Traffic Control System that demonstrates multithreading, thread-safe queues, and synchronization using std::mutex and std::condition_variable.

---

📌 Overview

This project simulates multiple aircraft requests (landing and takeoff) and manages them using a thread-safe queue system.
It highlights concurrency in C++ with proper synchronization and logging.

---

🚀 Features

• 🛬 Handles multiple aircraft requests (landing & takeoff)
• 🧵 Implements real multithreading using std::thread
• 🛫 Thread-safe runway management with mutex & condition_variable
• 🗂️ Queue system for scheduling aircrafts
• 📝 Logs all operations to a file (log.txt)

🔧 How to Compile & Run

Use g++ with pthread support:

g++ main.cpp Aircraft.cpp RunwayManager.cpp Logger.cpp -o AirTrafficSim -pthread ./AirTrafficSim

📊 Sample Output

Aircraft AC1001 requested landing.

Runway cleared for aircraft AC1001 (landing)

Aircraft AC1001 has landed.
