Pilot2ATC Bug Reporting Forum

Hi all, I occasionally get a series of ATC calls informing me of nearby aircraft right after take off. It sounds as if it was queuing up the whole time I was taxiing because it is the same vector and altitude over and over again. Also, it usually happens at larger airports. It could be something I am doing wrong but it seems like a bug. Does anyone else have this issue?

Strange behavior with my Honeycomb yoke and P2A. I'm attempting to set the index finger button on the left yoke handle (is read as 0 by P2A). I can bind the button in the Btns config page, however when the button is triggered, the Responds to Radio and Changes Frequencies options will deselect with the first button toggle, and then select with the second toggle. Additional button clicks will continue the behavior. Additionally, if I disable the PTT Joystick Button option, toggling button 0 will still check/uncheck the options. This behavior occurs both when the Config page is open or closed. However, if I use a different button on the yoke I cannot reproduce the beh…

Hi, This has happened a couple of times to me recently. I've attached the log and copy of the conversation to help with this one. Sat ready to take off (EGNX - P3D), one in front and two on final. First one on final lands, then the AI in front of me lines up and takes off, then the second one on final goes around because it was too close, but all the time, this message you can see in the text file is just stuck looping. There was nothing I could do to stop it. Changed frequency, tried to respond both verbally and via the menu, in the end disconnecting and reconnecting was the only way to kill it off.

I'm having an issue when I export a pln from p2atc and try loading it in msfs. I can get some plans to load and a lot of other plans not loading and crashing MSFS. So the latest crash is with KPIH to KHOB with the ILS RW03 approach. here is a pln and vbf of the plan p2atc made https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/19N7RWmB12k1F4cfafUJE6KlMIxlNZg6Y?usp=sharing I've just been creating a plan by hand in MSFS to match the p2atc one as a workaround for now. I comapared the files in VScode and deleted the Null Intersection that p2atc creates and loaded and the crash was fixed however it breaks the plan and sends me halfway across the globe, but wanted to see if maybe MSFS does…

i have just done a flight from K15 to KGKT at K15 i was given a frequency of 124.10 when tuned and i asked for ready to copy ifr clearance i got a response of this is not the correct frequency please check your frequency i tried all the frequencies that was at K15 but got the same response or no response at all did i do something wrong?

ILS approach for 28L at KLAN has a transition for QUBEE. In the charts, it shows up inline with the runway approach. In P2ATC, it's further south. I'm using the latest Navigraph Cycle 2013 for MSFS and P2ATC. Is there something I messed up or something wrong? Thx

I'm currently trialing Pilot2Atc with MSFS and think it's fantastic. Since beginning to use it, most of my flights have been ended by a CTD, seemingly at random with no error code. Initially I noticed my memory was running particularly high when using Pilot2Atc (around 90%) but I've since adjusted my MSFS settings to get that down to 50-60% but with no change to my problem. I've tried searching around and have used the user guide so apologies if there's info on this elsewhere. Would appreciate any thoughts on how I can rectify this before I commit to purchase would be much appreciated!

Hi @Dave-Pilot2ATC, Sorry, post my last bug about co-pilot in the wrong part of the forum! One more I noticed, I'm not sure whether this is Pilot2ATC or Navigraph. It's happened for the last two AIRAC cycles. It doesn't show itself when using Navigraph for other products like the PMDG etc. The London approach, ILS 27R with the BIG transition, has an odd waypoint that's miles out and can't be amended as it's part of a procedure. Thanks, Mark.

how to fix the atc response when calling back the tail number and flight number ie. if my imput is correct say CESSNA 739LG I get a response CESSNA 739er LG 9er LIMA GOLF. should only be CESSNA 739LG ???

Today I tried to plan a flight from ND54 to KBIS and although I can't see any altitude restriction anywhere along the route that wouldn't allow an altitude of 4000 ft, P2ATC insists on requiring a minimum cruise altitude of 6000 ft. When I try to change the altitude down to 4000 ft it simply ignores it. And in flight, when I try to request a lower altitude from ATC, I get "Your requested altitude is below the minimum for your route.Climb and Maintain Four Thousand Niner Hundred feet". Here's the route: P2ATC itself does not list any relevant waypoint restrictions in the 'Alt Restr' column, and as far as I can tell the section from BEHQY to YIRNU (part of…

I keep getting a message saying - unable to import text to fight plan, check format of the pasted text. No clue how to get around this.

Hi Dave, A couple of days ago I had a problem in which I lost all my previously saved Pilot2ATC configuration. I have no idea what happened. Long story short, I had to start from scratch. When I pointed the ATC Chatter to the Controller Folders and enabled chatter to play I noticed that it was rattling off one chatter file after the other. I enabled Pause Between File Playback and the files just stopped playing. Playing with the minimum and maximum pause time values does not seem to make any difference. I'm currently running v.2.6.1.3_x64 with the Navigraph 2012 cycle. Any thoughts on how I can get this working again? Nothing has changed with the underlying …

Dave, I though I would document the email exchange we had about the fact that Pilot2ATC does not seem to detect all of the possible Regions in the X-ATC-Chatter regions folder. As an example it does not detect Asia, Africa, or South America. Mark

Hello Dave! Greetings!! I' M Loving P2A in MSFS 2020 You Might have answered this in a previous post, I couldn't find the response when i searched , sorry. Often, it is hard to locate the "yellow" default aircraft on the Map . is it possible to change the color to say " navy" or " dark Magenta? Best Regards hari

When i activate the airways on the movingmaps my installation of p2atc becomes unresponsive to any further action. It is not crashing just not accepting any more inputs. It seems like its just a little too much to cope with. Is this a kown problem? If you need any further information please let me know. my system specs are: I7-7700HQ 16gb ram windos 10 64bit nvidia geforce gtx1070 pilot2atc 2.6.0.0_x64_R3

Using P2ATC there isn't an option to request jetway conection , but how can we get fhis operative? All time whhen i arrived to assigned gate by P2ATC and i request jetway connection using the ingame ATC it says me that it's not possible :(. Anyone has a method to make the jetway functionally at the gate assigned by P2ATC? thanks

For some unknown reason, ATC stops responding when switching from ground to tower before takeoff. I’ve checked that the frequency is tuned both in P2A and MSFS. But there is nothing, no reply from ATC after that point.. Neigther speking myself or via the speak-it feature. This has happened on every flight the last 2 days or so. Today I suddenly got told to let atc know when I was ready to taxi, about 2 hours after I departed(!) and during my approach to destination. Very strange behaviour, and I can’t see the reasoning. I haven’t added anything to the sim that I can think of. Last thing I added about a week ago was the atc chatter files that are in beta atm(but via the ex…

Hi, Trouble with Speech assistant and help grammar and Phrases to say. Yesterday, I was installing and testing the Pilot2ATC software for the first time. I succeeded to make it work BUT for the "help grammar" functions related. Pilot2ATC was not able to display "Phrases to say" in the grammar help function. The Speech assistant ?+ had no sentence, neither the ? button. It took me an evening of tribulations and efforts, but I think I understand the reason. On my PC, I logon to an unpriviledge windows account (standard user) for security reasons let's call it Paul's account . The install program of Pilot2ATC requires the priviledge (ad…

Hello, I am also frequently getting the "another instance" dialog when starting Pilot2ATC after awakening my PC from Hibernate. I'm using it with MSFS2020. There's nothing that looks remotely like PIlot2ATC in the Task Manager, including the Details tab. What does the app look for to see if another instance is running? Is there a cryptically named task that I need to kill? I explicitly shut down Pilot2ATC before entering Hibernate. I've seen others report this and having to reboot every time is painful. I'm running in trial mode currently and am interested in buying the app except for this issue. Thanks,

I am using FBW320 latest dev branch addon and have noticed that sometimes the frequencies do not properly synch up. What's shown in Pilot2ATC doesn't match with what's shown in the plane. I am using the latest 2.6.1.3 version.

Is this the correct ATC terminology to say 16,000 ft?

Not sure if this issue is with the mod or P2A, but whenever I try to tune any freq nothing happens (in the plane comms panel). If I try to tune manually, I still get no responses from P2A, so I can’t seem to make it work... any ideas or anybody else experiencing the same?

Hello, I use Pilot2ATC at all and I tried to fly few time with this addon and sometimes the atc gives wrong taxiway instructions and one time he just didn't give me taxi instructions at all(i think it was in OIBB airport). and in LGSA airport he gave me wrong taxi directions that doesn't match the airport diagram. I assume it will happen in more airports that I haven't tried yet. Can I do something to fix it ? or you know about it and will fix it in next patches ?

After updating from V2.6.1.1 to V2.6.1.3 (NavData Pro) on a client PC, the flight plan import does not work: by doing manual input, the space bar is not working anymore. Copy paste of a flight plan is recognized as wrong format. Also in other programs (e.g MS Notes, Edge etc.) the space bar is not working while the Pilot2ATC program is still active. After closing Pilot2ATC all is working fine again in the other applications --> Space bar is working again. Any idea?

Hello, I use P2A and when I "file" my flightplan it automatically generate different Deprature and approach from what I want so I change it then request for clearance and the atc says : " your flight plan seems to be out of date. Please file a new one and call back for clearance." What to do ?how to fix it ?
