Urgent help with runway assignments

Featured Replies

Can anyone help with this. When using voxatc all is fine but it seems that landing and departures are mainly on the same runway and also tower frequencys for the landing and takeoff are the same. This leads to alot of missed approaches and a long time waiting to be cleared for take off. If i use the default atc in fsx that uses two runways one for take off and one for landing, also two different frequencys. Is there anyway to change this for voxatc.

I will give an example.

Voxatc at EGLL Heathrow

Landing and take off on runway 27 left frequency 118.700

 

Default FSX atc

Landing 27 Left freq 118.700

Take off 27 Right Freq 118.500

 

How can this be possible when voxatc is supposed to get all information feom the FSX files.

 

Many thanks for your help in advance.

Hi

Sorry not used Vox ATC for 6 months or so but just getting back into FSX again now the nights are drawing in. I seem to remember I had the same issue and it was very noticeable at large airports eg Schipol/Heathrow etc. Now I was using Mytraffic for traffic and I found that I needed to edit the afcad for the airport such that each runway only allowed either takeoffs or landings (not both) for the airports where this was an issue. There is a software program I used to do this for me I think called Airport Design Editor and there are instructions within it as to how to amend runway operations (it cannot have been to difficult or I would not have been able to do it!) and from memory this sorted a lot of these sort of issues out for me. The only issue is that you have to manually edit each airport where this is an issue.

Hope that helps a little sorry I cannot add any more as it was all over 6 months ago and the memory fades as to exactly how I did it.

Phil is pretty much right, VoxATC reads the AFCAD file and decides based on the AFCAD file / Weather what RW to hand over to the pilot.

you could easily edit the Airport AFCAD file with the free tool ADE (http://www.airportdesigneditor.co.uk).

Good luck.
