This has started happening in, oh, the last 4 or 5 weeks. PF3 will call all AI aircraft by their tail number. e.g. N650RB I've looked at the FAQ and made sure that my registered FSUIPC is showing Flight as the ID. Any ideas?

No idea actually Rick... certainly haven't changed anything in that area for more years than you'd like to remember :lol:

In the absence of a log file (tut, tut) what sim are you running? Also it might be worth checking out Pete Dowson's TrafficLook utility to see what that's picking up

Dave,
Something similar was posted in Beta forum about this by a new member with regards to MSFS.

Yeah but at that time MSFS was broken with regard to AI traffic

Well, now it starting working again! All I did was change it over to Title in FSUIPC, let PF3 contact someone using that (BOY was that a long string of letters!) and then change it back to flight. Working fine now. Seems I have a gremlin in my system. Oh well.
