Hello to all, especially to Dave March, and thanks for excellent piece of software which really bring FS ATC to new level... :D

I am new user to PFE, and I followed instructions in user manual, installed accumulative updates, and everything seems to work excellent, but I still have few questions...

I had few collisions with AI traffic on the ground while taxiing. I never heard any warning for ground traffic from controller (e.g. "hold your position" or "give way to...). Is this normal? If it is, could you, please, consider including such a warning for ground traffic in some future updates? It can get really crowded in some airports when using addon traffic files... :)

Another thing is that I never hear ATC giving orders to other AI planes to switch frequencies (e.g. "Speedbird xxx contact control on xxx.xx"). Is this normal, or is it something wrong with my installation? Everything works well for user plane, though...

I have some more questions, but I don't want to get boring already in first post :) Thank you in advance for answers, and, since English is not my native language, sorry if I made some mistakes or was not clear enough somewhere...

Regards, Miloš

Thanks for the feedback.... I always use the fsuipc traffic zap option to prevent such on the ground issues.

I don't know if my memory is getting worse as I get older...
...I just can't remember how it used to be!

Umm What version of FSUIPC is this on? Not mine and I have the latest for FS2004.

It's one of the available key send command you can setup.... Been available for years. Check the documentation... You can send a multitude of commands to fs via fsuipc

Wow, thanks, I didn't even noticed that option before... :)

I had some strange problem last night. I made a flight from Belgrade (LYBE) to Cairo (HECA), but during the flight, I had only ONE request to switch center frequencies and no AI chatter at all... Everything worked OK on departure/arrival and tower frequencies... So, I don't know what happened. There should be at least several frequency changes en route, right?

Thanks for reply.
Regards, Miloš.
