Must be doing some thing wrong, since the first time i used pf3 it worked with no issues the only thing i have change in the option is i had selected no push back and now i have selected pushback and taxi intructions. i contacted ground for push back said was cleared to push back and to contact ground on 121.70(ymml) so pushabck started engines and than pressed the 0 key to contact ground for taxi and all the time i get cleared for pushback and start and contact ground for taxi? So now iam stuck waiting for the taix

still at a loss what iam doing wrong my 3rd attempt, restarted sim 3 times still the same issue push back ok press the 0 key and still the same reply cleared for push back contact ground when ready for taxi, get htis every time no matter what5 i have tried, even tried contacting tower reply was to cotact ground on 121.7 and still got the same reply. might try another airport to see if i get the same issue or might try to use the no push back option

forgot to add i tried using the demo and everything worked out ok than bought the registered copy of pf3 and this is the first time using the registered copy of pf3

Did you acknowledge your IFR clearance? You may want to try CP Mode 2 (on the Options #1 screen) which is easier initially.

Hi Dan yes tried all three modes, how do you acknowledge the ifr clearance since this is most likely the issue? Since I thought I had since it it woudnt pass me to the ground controller

The problem here was due to you NOT rogering the push and start clearance approval. As Dan suggested, why not try letting your VCP do more of the work until you are used to how things work with ATC

thx for the info but i had no issues with the demo version and Iam iam doing the same procedure as the demo. so after you contact clearnace it says to changes to contact ground and than ask for push back clearance how do you roger this when using cp1?

the only thing different from the demo version is i didnt use the push back and start option had this set to off
