OnCourse Software

Yesterday I made an EFHK - EPWA flight and after taking off normally and following the ATC instructions, I was ordered to contact 'CORDOBA' Control Center. (????) Later, I was told to contact the COPENHAGEN control Center (something more normal for those latitudes).

Another problem is that now whenever I'm going to land, ATC provides me vectors as normal and at a certain point, as I always do, I request a "Clear to Finals" approach, which is granted.

The problem arises that once the glideslope has been intercepted and permission to land has been confirmed, they order me to perform a Go Around.

There are already two times that it has happened to me with an empty runway although with aircraft present at the holding point.

I am attaching the Debug_Monitor.log file and the followed flight plan, noting that everything was done in the old FS9.

All the best.

P.S. The answer is not in a hurry, so I think it can be dispatched when it suits you best.

Strangely enough the 'Cordoba' issue was mentioned to me back in mid December, by the same guy who created the Extended Center Sectors file. Somehow this was missed when the new files were compiled (some 2 years ago now) and he mentioned how strange no one had ever noticed before. Anyway, the problem has already been addressed and will be in the next full release, as it's not something I can drop into the beta version just yet. In that particular region you should have been in contact with 'Control' rather than 'Cordoba'

The go-around is a new feature added in 3.19.0 - there was another aircraft taxiing an on the runway when you were 3 miles out. This may only have been for a very short period but we only run the check once.

Quote:

• ADDED a new 'go-around' feature where PF3 will check for any other
aircraft on the runway during your final approach and if detected ATC will
instruct you to go-around. Normally PF3 does a pretty good job of keeping
other aircraft out of your way and off the runway, but on occasions,
especially when AI traffic is landing in front of you, they can be very slow
to vacate the runway (especially in MSFS). The new configurable options
for this feature can be found under Options#2 / Advanced Options. Full
details can be found in the PF3 User Guide.

You can of course disable this in Options #2/Advanced options if you wish

Hi Dave,

Thank you very much for your instructions and clarifications.

I should have read the news of the latest update.


All the best.
