Is there a way to do this? I found the airlines .dat file and added my VA, but it did not show up in the options list to select an airline. thanks for any advice.

Not unless you have the call sign recorded by 119 voice authors or you edit 238 wav files to create it.

Sherm,

You could fly by ICAO code, not unknown in the real world. This is how I do it:
Set the flight number as (for example) XY103, and set the airline to blank. Then you will be called as "XRAY YANKEE 103".

This is just a suggestion, it might not suit your circumstances.

John

Thanks John,
In fact I have set FP3 for my airline flight number DCA 662...I am addressed as 662 and that works.

BTW, if you like the old rotary prp[ engines, specifically the DC3 C47 variety take a look around at www.dc3airways.net.

Couldn't live without the veritable DC-3! :) Brilliant site that, too.

Best regards,
