Hi all,First time flying ATC ILS approach yesterday. What I found is that if you miss the first approach, ATC will be confused and send you to Mars. You then have no option except to take matter in your own hands. Do any of you guys have this problem? Well, I usually miss the first clearence (too close to the runway be time the go ahead is given) so have to declare a miss approach. Then, the ATC sends to no man's land.

Is this with a particular airport? The ATC usually handles missed approaches fairly well.

I tried 3 airports, they all sent me no where. KLGA, KLNS, CYQB. These are all the airports I have tried as I am very new with ATC.

Sorry, but I use the Missed Approach procedure all the time, like to do multiple approaches for practice. Never had a problem with vectors for the next approach. I have no idea what is causing your problem, but for me, it works like it is supposed to.I have to ask, have you studied the Help files for ATC in detail??? Very clear and concise. Paul

If it works for you guys, I will keep studying and practicing. One thing though. Should turn down my Air Traffic setting? Currently, I have it set to max and I am getting lots of AI traffics.

That might help--I have mine at 15%, running an older computer. Just a guess.Regards,Paul

Haha, I did it for me too. Before I reduce the air traffic setting, the approaches and towers were so busy. They were constantly talking, I couldn't send ackownledges.

The inability to respond to ATC in a timely manner will cause you or AI aircraft to get dumped from the ATC queue. As you found, turning down the traffic, allowed you to respond to approach control, so ATC would then put you into the vector loop.W. Sieffert

Dumping planes from the ATC queue while they are in your air space. Is that realistic? Well, it might've been worse. Traffic control might just send you to lala land. LoL.

regular thing that - with AI at 100% upon going missed at a busy airport expect to be vectored at least 30 miles out - all this at 2-3000 ft (ugh).I suppose MS can't be blamed though, they never designed fs9 atc to handle the volumes of traffic the community has come up with :)Editvoicepack helps I've read, you can condense atc phrases, hence faster traffic handling.regards,Mark
