There is a miss match in the way that taxiway designations are called out by ATC and by the co-pilot. The co-pilot calls the designators correctly whereas ATC does not. For example: The co-pilot will say "Bear left on Charlie Papa One" [CP 1] spoken with correct intonation. But ATC when gi...

I don't think I ever used that reply in my life...Words and phrases are not that exact and vary with controllers and locations... When "Cleared for immediate takeoff" I have heard: Roger, Rollin', Cleared.... and a few others... Commands and replys need to be somewhat Random or PFE will b...

Another thing that should be more accurate is when ATC give the instruction for immediate take off. The correct reply is "Ready immediate" not "cleared for take off" This tells ATC that the a/c will taxi onto the rwy and not hang around while the crew are opening up their thermos...

Very soon after take off from EGKK I noticed that ATC chatter had stopped and after clearance to my cruising altitude I heard no more from ATC at all. I noticed that this error message was repeated in the log file Error: 52 - Bad file name or number at 528 in AI_Interaction Is it a problem or did PF...

When waypoints are too close together or too close to the destination or departure point they get dropped..by default...These settings are in the PF2000.cfg file (I think) I always rebuild my DB after adding an airport...and hafe no problems..except.. I have two addon airports fy FlightZone..Portla...

I have a lot of information created in the SID's STAR's panel especially regarding rwys in use for take off landing etc. When I do a PFE update I am asked " Do you want to save any previously entered SID/STAR or Missed Approach data and automatically apply it to the new database? [Y/N]" I ...

It's OK as long as we don't use it here in the USA

Well as PFE "I assume" knows in which part of the world one is flying then it could construct the ATC phrase accordingly

Is it possible to add "airborne at" +(minutes past the hour) as part of the phrase the tower uses to hand an a/c over to approach after take off? It would be say "Speedbird 344 airborne at 25(two fife) contact approach on 120 decimal 5" This plus the saying of QNH and QFE should ...

Not sure this is a good idea...I don't think you want to trigger vectors using altitude..A waypoint is more correct.. The problem with STAR's is that they often finish close to the airport aka London Heathrow OCK. In this case one flies to OCK either directly or in the hold leaving the facility at ...

I'm going to try out the approaches using PFE
I hope that PFE observes the rules according to the official website
