Here's the simple explanation:ON LINE ATC = "NO".... The FO will request pushback clearance during his Before Start flow.ON LINE ATC = "YES" .... The FO will *not* request pushback clearance. If you're departing from a parking spot and don't require pushback services, I suggest you select ON LINE ATC to "YES" even though you may not be using VATSIM, etc. Why?Because you don't need to request pushback clearance if you don't require a pushback! It would sound silly to have the FO request it.In short, the only difference between "YES" and "NO" is the audio of the FO requesting pushback clearance -that's it. In other words, a small bit of dialogue.There are no other effects on the rest of program, so don't get to stressed if you set ON LINE ATC incorrectly.In fact, I may change the term ON LINE ATC in the Config to something that offers less room for confusion.Hope that helps,Bryan

Thanks for the reply Bryan. Not stressed at all, just curiousas it was something new.
