Hi Dave,
I have a little suggestion for the nex update of PFE:

1) can you add Terminal Procedure (SID/STARs) directly from Navigraph.com using their database, so ATC can vector pilot accordingly with a published departure procedure or standar arrival route, based on weather or traffic condition. It would be very appreciated for most PFE user I think.

For instance for a flightplan from LIPZ to LIRF my first waypoint is CHI VOR and there are at least 6 SIDs for that waypoint (CHI1A, CHI2A and so on untill CHI6A). So ATC can choose from a 6 SIDs for that specific first waypoint (ever randomly). I know infact that PFE can't "detect" AI traffic, but only emulate its presence.

2) possibility to HOLD on a specific FIX (retrived from Navigraph database too) and not only on a VOR station

I hope you take care those suggestions, best reaguards.

Riccardo

I don't want to be the pessimist, those sound like great features that obviously everyone would like to see in an ATC program, but realistically not something that could be added as a simple "update" :?

Hi Riccardo

Thanks for the suggestions... always appreciated.

I have added them all to my list of things to 'consider' at some point.

You mention, however

Which is actually not correct. PFE can and does detect AI Traffic. ProFlight use to emulate it but not PFE ;-)

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