Air Traffic Chief - http://www.freeonlinegames.com/game/air-traffic-chief.html
The game seems to be similar to the experimental task called "Flight
Control" described in the articles above in relation to its prediction
of coordination abilities, especially in this case, visual
coordination abilities.
