Upload an MP3 or WAV from this device. It will play through the same cabin PA filter as your announcements, and you can start or stop it manually during boarding after the flight is ready.
Optional Safety Demo Audio

Audio Setup
Tune ATC and Cabin Crew before flight
These controls are saved on this device, so your preferred ATC radio tone, speed, and cabin audio levels carry straight into the live session.
Mic Activation
Wake-word mode listens locally for this phrase before opening the mic.
Choose how you want to key the microphone for ATC before flight start.
Your Spoken Language
SkyLink is currently listening in English. Choose your spoken language here before using another language with ATC.
Cabin Crew follows the airline's own language when SkyLink has a matching cabin language profile, with English fallback where needed.
ATC Experience
Pro Mode keeps the full real-world radio workload. Rookie Mode still gives you authentic ATC responses, but lets you ask in simpler plain language when you are still learning phraseology.
Pro Mode is best if you want to handle every transmission yourself using standard ATC phraseology.
Copilot Radio Assist
In Pro Mode, your copilot can handle the radio for you. Say “Hey Mark, ask ATC for our IFR clearance” and SkyLink will transmit the proper phraseology, then handle the readbacks automatically.
Best for pilots who want help with phraseology while keeping the full Pro workflow and ATC realism.
Display Mode
Start straight into a full-screen hold-to-talk button, ideal for phone-based VR flying.

Major Update
Update 1.4.0
Pilot Rooms Are Now Live In SkyLink
You can now log into the SkyLink Pilot Network, join a shared pilot room, and hear the pilot calls and ATC replies being shared inside that same room. It is designed to feel social and immersive without turning your flight into a noisy global free-for-all.
Log In Once, Then Join Any Room
Create a Pilot Network login in setup, start your flight, then open Pilot Rooms from the top of the live flight screen whenever you want to connect with other SkyLink pilots.
Hear The Room, Not The Whole World
You only hear pilots and ATC traffic from the room you chose. If you join Brisbane, you hear Brisbane room traffic. You do not hear every pilot everywhere.
Shared Pilot Calls And ATC Replies
When another pilot in your room transmits, you can hear their call and the ATC reply that comes back to them, making the room feel more alive and more like a shared flying space.
Private Text And Voice Between Pilots
You can also select another pilot in the room and send a private text message or private voice note directly to them without broadcasting it to everybody else.
Your Flight Identity Shows In The Room
If you import a SimBrief flight, other pilots will see you by your flight identity, such as Qantas 123, along with your account name, instead of just a generic username.
Fly Solo If You Prefer
If you do not create an account or do not log in, SkyLink still works exactly as normal. Pilot Rooms stay out of the way and your flight remains a solo experience.
