Default FS ATC

[Michael Carter]

Have the programmers included the correct ATC procedures for major and secondary airports?

This might be worth looking into as this system can't hardly handle flying on line on IVAO.

My PII 400 Mhz machine did better.

BSW,

Radar Contact doesn't contain specific procedures for airports, I would describe it as a significant upgrade to FS ATC but I wouldn't say it rewrites the rule book.... you are still talking mainly generic but with more flexibilty for flying SIDs etc, and choosing approaches.

The typical way Radar Contact handles a SID, is that you request a Departure Procedure in the set-up screen, then basically ATC will assign an initial altutide and tell you to "fly the published departure procedure".

ATC will then continue with altitudes but will 'leave you alone' with regards to headings, until you reach your first waypoint in your flight plan. You will then be guided as normal and corrected if you're off course.

This contrasts with FS ATC where, if you fly a SID, you will constantly be told to fly a conflicting heading by ATC !

Radar - Thanks for the EditVoicePack link - I have been meaning to check this free software out for months but keep forgetting. Looks like a good way to customize FS ATC to make it better.
