The past few flights I have had a problem with ATC not giving me any descent instructions. These instructions would usually happen at a waypoint near my TOD: when I pass this and have received nothing, I try checking in to ATC. When I do that, I hear the pilot say "... out of flight level three three zero for flight level one two zero" (for instance), as if the instruction to descend had in fact been given. But the onscreen ATC text record shows that there was nothing. So, late already, I descend. But then after a minute, ATC tells me to maintain FL320 - or whatever my (cruise) flight level is - every few minutes. Confusing.
I haven't posted the log as this is in X-Plane 11, using the PF3 plugin (which mostly works brilliantly and was worth every penny!). First question therefore is, do I need to contact the PFEtoX-Plane guys for all tech problems, or can I ask about PF3/X-Plane issues here too? If OK to ask here, I'll attach my log next time.
This problem only surfaced this week (no updates to programmes or whatever); before that, all was working just fine. Can't think what has happened.
Thanks.
