Sid Star and fs9 atc question


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi fellow pilots, I wanted to know if creating a flight plan through fs build with a sid star departure and approach and loading this flight plan within fs9 make the atc direct me the proper headings to fly these types of approaches. I understand its limited to a certain degree but an fs9 plan is perfectly directed and followed by the fmc and so is an fsbuild plan but what about sid star????P.S. About KMIA, the fmc gives me an error about a rwy at Miami intl I forget which runway, what is causing this error? I do have the latest Airac cycle and Sid/Star dated (0411)

>About KMIA, the fmc gives me an error about a rwy at Miami>intl I forget which runway, what is causing this error? I do>have the latest Airac cycle and Sid/Star dated (0411)KMIA has recently added a 4th runway (in real life), the change is reflected in the latest Airac cycles but not on the default FS9 KMIA airport.The default FS9 KMIA airport has the old runways: 9R-27L, 9L-27R and 12-30.After the new runway was added, the initial layout was:9R-27L, 9L-27R, 12-30, and the new runway 8-26 just north of (and parallel to) runway 9L-27R. However, this caused multiple problems and pilot confusion + landings on the wrong runway.The KMIA layout was then changed again to the current format:9-27 (what used to be 9R-27L)8R-26L (what used to be 9L-27R)8L-27R (the new runway)12-30 (no change on this one)For FS9, what you should do, is use 8R-26L on the FMC/MCU when FS9 assigns you rwy 9L-27R.The above info is all "unofficial" talk I've heard from real-world pilots and on my ATC radio scanner.Kerke :-waveKMIA
