i wonder if anyone has any ideas on modifying the default atc, which vectors you in too soon, with no regard for published procedure. it seems to me as though the code would be simple, a series of if/thens i know code is never simple, but it doesnt seem all that difficult. something i'd be willing to try if anyone knows where to point me. maybe it can be developed for specific airports or something.while i appreciate that the default atc is good to learn with, i also would like to be able to fly the same routes, while under atc, as the last real flight i took. anyone else think this is possible or a good idea?

You can use a published procedure. See your other thread.
