AI cleared approach speeds

Featured Replies

Has anyone notice that AIs actually have the same approach speeds? a piper, a cessna, a baron, dash, etc. these small planes are actually faster than a user 747 during cleared approach. and the thing is, ATC has this sneaky trick of letting them cut you off during approach. so even if you are 9NM apart, when they are cleared to land, their speed suddenly jumps to the slowest speed that by the time you are cleared to land they are still making their finals and you end up going around. if they are even 2NM away from you at the cleared approach path you'll have a hard time overtaking them and surely, they'll get ATC clearance before you do.is there a way to control their cleared approach speeds from the aircraft.cfg file?i also notice, because i have TCAS all the time, i set the range to 24NM during expect approach and as i near the clear approach, the sky looks empty. as soon as i have all the approach for myself (that's what i thought), there would be a jet behind me easily overtaking me and getting the landing clearance just seconds before i get them. so annoying!well if there's going to be an FS11, i am asking this Microsoft people to improve the system rather than the visuals.suggestion for that, ATC should only speak "cleared approach" once every 60 seconds. once spoken to one plane, ATC will automatically send the next incoming plane to a holding pattern. first plane in, first plane out of holding pattern.also with "cleared to land" it should only be spoken by ATC in 60 second time frame.

Yeah, a nice thought, not a new one though. Already on the "wishful thinking" list along with hundreds of other items.Too bad that thinking about all these ideas and writing them on a forum is a waste of time as this is what we have and nothing new is planned. Hate to be the realist..
