Is there a repository for airports that have their taxiways/parking/etc. fixed? Thanks!

I haven't been able to figure this out for sure, but from what I've seen, I'm under the impression that this product is voice control only. Is that correct? Is there a way to use it with button control?

Is it possible to have a shorter callsign after the inital call? For example, Cessna G-12AB, then later on just 2AB? Is it possible to include greetings such as good morning, good evening, good day, have a nice day, etc? It's odd to just say "Cessna G-12AB at FL080" then the ATC replies with a greeting, makes me feel rude. Thanks!

Hello everyone! So i fly xplane11 non beta, and i have been using Pilot2ATC which has drastically changed my sim experience. Im absolutely in love with this program. but i digress.... so im having a small problem. While planning my flight, i use a mix of "simbrief" and Pilot2ATC. simbrief i use for the briefing page, and the actual plan i create with pilot2atc my problem is Im never really sure which runways are the ones in use...... Simbrief gives me random dep and arri runways PILOT2ATC gives me (at the airport INFO button) certain runways.... if i then connect the airplanes radio to ATIS... i hear 2 ATIS infos. Both give me different information..... …

I just installed Pilot 2 ATC, and when I start it up, the first dialog with the Register and Continue to Trial button say the following: TRIAL ACTIVATED (10 days remaining) Press the continue to trial button to continue your trial or the Register Button to enter your purchased License Key. CLOCK MANIPULATION DETECTED! When I click "Continue to Trial" the application just stops. Anyone seen this before or have a solution? Thanks!

Is it normal for the program to be quite slow at the loading screen and also when importing flightplans from Navigraph?

Sometimes the P2ATC moving map goes white blank with a big red "X" across it. Totally blank-no user aircraft, flight plan or AI. If I restart P2ATC, all goes well for the duration of the flight. Does this have something to do with an internet access problem? Something else? Thanks.

I'm just starting out with using P2A and did a flight from UKLI to LIPZ. For some reason, P2A put my TOD as you can see in the screenshot and when I got to that point, it asked me to descend to 5000ft. Is this a bug or have I entered something wrong somewhere? Thanks!

Hiya, At some point during an IFR flight plan, I'd like to perform an air show or go sight-seeing, and then resume the flight plan. To try this out, I called P2A to Cancel IFR, but then I could find no way to resume it afterward (Direct To seems to require an active flight plan which I had cancelled, so I got stuck with ATC not really recognising what I was trying to do). But now at the back of the manual I notice there are calls to "Leave Frequency" and "Back on Frequency". I know the timings would be off for the NAV point arrivals etc so would that work or is there a better way? Thanks, Mike

Hi guys, I am on day 8 of a Pilot2ATC trial, so still very new to it, and new to X-Plane 11. Please forgive noob level questions... So I have some confusion after watching the P2A tutorial videos vs my experience so far, so I hope somebody can help me understand what I'm doing wrong. I will add that I have Orbx South England installed. My flight is a short one from Heathrow EGLL to Lydd (EGMD). I've created the flight plan in P2A, validated, connected to the sim and filed the flight plan. P2A navigates me from the parking area to the active runway (09L), and I follow the route exactly as shown on the P2A taxi map. I've performed this route twice now, a…

In P3D v4.5 HF2 flying the RealAir Duke B60. Trying a flight where I want to TKO and Land at same airport to do a Sightseeing trip, while flying over two other airports on the way (flight plan attached from Little NavMap). When try to validate I get the Error Message about changing FL, Airspeed or decent rate. So tried changing each of them...no joy. I originally imported the FP from Little NavMap but then tried creating the same plan from scratch in P2ATC...no joy. Looked at forum and saw several posts with same problem and tried turning off "Safe Enroute Alutitude"...no joy. Finally found had to delete the return to the original airport and just do the flight pla…

There is lot of things this program excels at like filing a plan while in the air vfr but I would like to see pilot2atc control AI traffic like radar contact and proatcx,for exame 100%of the time when I'm on final in KSEA it tells me traffic on runway missed approach when I do miss approach same thing so I just ignore it lol radac contact and proatcx control the AI but those programs don't have all the features the PTA has proatcx does not cover all the airports and RC no side and stars ..so I will like to see PTA control AI better.

Hi, I'm having a small issue with KLAX's ATIS frequency. When I start Xplane 11 and P2ATC and file a local VFR flight plan at LAX, it switches the initial COM frequency to ATIS as it should. Problem lies in that I start up the sim at the gate for departure and the LAX ATIS frequency it loads is the ARRIVAL frequency of 133.80 that has no voice speaking weather just silence. It should be loading the LAX ATIS DEPARTURE frequency of 135.65 which works fine and speaks the weather if I change it manually. 1st question: Can I use taxi editor to simply change ATIS frequencies or is it only designed for ARTCC? 2nd question: Does Navigraph even list both or do they …

Hi i have a problem regarding uk airports. Some of Them have you depart your sid at a low altitude, ex. 3000 feet for a long time before able to climb. The p2a sometimes says to climb and then expedite climb and when i then do i am asked to expedite my descent back to the 3000. Og i ignore this the atc just keeps on asking for the expedited descent even beyond the point where the restriction is 3000 feet, is there away to stop this repeating, stop the atc, reset the height or? If i do not climb beyond the 3000 feet at first it just keeps asking for the “expedite” climb but when i do i am ordered back to the original 3000 feet restriction? any help …

Dave, I currently have my aircraft ID set up as GA Elite 21. I am referred to as Elite two one by P2A. Is there a way to change this so that P2A calls me Elite twenty-one? Tom

Starting on page 59 of the manual is the description of the runways and gate tab. It shows airlines at the arrival airport in the drop down under the filter box. Mine is empty and even after I type in an airline code I get nothing and it doesn't save for the next trip. Is there some database that I should load to get this function to work.I choose KATL because I know it is a DAL base. It would be nice to pick a gate that is normally airline specific. Thanks My version is 2.6.1.1_x64_R3 I may have answered my own question. Further in the doc it talks of taxi maintenance. it looks very labor intensive.

I am finding that I am constantly steep or late approaches because of late TOD's. Is there a way to fool the system into giving me an earlier descent or can you request descend now? Thanks

Hey, So I just decided to make the purchase and made the payment. Told me I would get the key in my inbox but got nothing. So I emailed support but I am wondering if this is the right approach or something has gone wrong? Thanks Zain

When I import a flight plan in the .fms format Pilot2ATC sets the height of the departure airport as Cruise Alt and maintains it for each leg of the flight while if I import the plane in another format (.pln) everything works correctly.

Hi, I am new to this product so still learning. I found some tutorials on youtube on how to make WT3 AI appear within pilot2atc. I assigned the ai aircraft to "other (world traffic)" -- 19 of them but I see none in pilot2atc when I click to display AI within the map. I just see my own aircraft. Youtube video I followed which was pretty straight forward. I understand the only control pilot2atc has over AI is alerts over air and no ground separation? Thanks for your help Zain

What is the weather option I have to select in the config menu--> WX for xEnviro in Pilot2ATC. The options are only for NOAA, Sim weather etc. but no option for xEnviro weather.

As a new (Test-) User of that program a warm "well done". However, questions remain. Yesterday, I was able to perform 2 short flights. For the meantime with voice-assistance of my copilot, who does a good job. Now, on both flights the very far-from-reality-away instruction came from ATC while performing a (previous instructed) descend from FL350. They wanted me to (Quote) Slow to 200 knots or less (Unquote). And I just passed FL290 !! Having 300knots on my B777. Out of the fun of it, I followed the instruction. Glideslope became misserable, as I had to deploy flaps for that speed plus speedbrake before that, to eat up the 300kt down to 200kt wich resulted in m…

Hello, There are too many wrong VFR Patterns directions (Left or Right-turn patterns ) in Pilot2ATC (Geneva, Marrakech etc). It is not credible! How to correct these errors ?

Dear all, Hope everything is going welll.Which version of XPUIPC do you recommend， it seems i have a nose-wheel steering problem while using xplane11.41 default C172SP with V2.0.3.7 and v2.0.4.8. Many thanks from Simon.

Don't know if this has been suggested before but using pilot2atc in x-plane mostly vfr and struggling to get Windows 10 and hence pilot2atc, to work with any of my microphone devices (low/no volume) it would be handy to be able to map my 10 most used phrases to the keyboard numeric keypad so I just hit that key to 'sayit' with no further actions needed. Just a thought!
