airline callsign & FO service

3 quick questions .....

• is vox settings the only spot you can change the route # for an airline callsign
• using the FO for comms, does he/she set & switch the required frequencies as needed.
• with FSX voices unchecked, how do you hear an atis (or is it that voxatc creates its own - though on the fsx frequency)

thanks

for 3, what voice/s does it use ??

another question if I may !

 

after airways clearance, on ground using co-pilot, the next step shown is taxi request, not a pushback or startup request.

however when "clicked", the co-pilot firstly asks for & receives a startup (only), then immediately thereafter does the same for taxi.

 

surely there are missing steps here .. a need for a pushback request & a delay till ready for taxi. maybe a need for pilot calls ??
