Air Traffic Chaos
1 – Chaos is the largest, most visible thing on the package. Again, airport chaos on or around 9/11 probably isn’t the smartest choice

2 – That airliner is doing a loop. Assume those people are dead

3 – The controller is announcing what he is, on the box, in case the huge title and plain image of an airport wasn’t enough

4 – Despite saying he’s an air traffic controller, his facial expression and nervous sweat drops indicate he’s faking it, which explains problem number 2 AND...

5 - ...the fact that this plane is SIDEWAYS

6 – And he has three fingers on each hand!
---------------------------------------------

Edit: 7 - The game was released on 9 - 11

I needeed the RUBIX defense. Now I can explain those bodies hiding in the floor after murdering these hideous game creators. I wrote better crap on my Commodore in 1985.
