Issue with approaches

Check your Approach and Enroute Minimum AGLs in the ATC Settings.  That is likely why it's holding you up higher.  Reduce them to 1000 or 1500 ft. and see how it works.

Sounds good. Next flight I tried was EHAM-EGLL, everything went well except for one oddity: I was cleared for the ILS 09L LAM transition just before TOD. The issue is that ATC told me to "descend via the LAM transition to Flight Level Two Six Zero" except my cruise altitude was FL260. I ended up just selecting a lower altitude anyway.

That looks like a logic error in the program.  I'll have to check it out.

Thanks,

Thanks Dave,

I have now purchased the program thanks for the help. A few more questions:

1. Sometime when tower gives my takeoff clearance, it also is followed by climb and maintain XX altitude which is normal as sometimes tower amends the top altitude with the takeoff clearance in the RW, but I sometimes get 2 of them IE: "climb and maintain FL120" and right after "climb and maintain FL150" not a big thing was just curious. 

2. I just finished flying EDDM-LOWW, I was cleared for MASU2W with the transition for ILS16 (closed) but I was expecting to get radar vector at some point as it is a trajectory that turns back on itself:

But I was left to fly the whole thing without intervention. This is fine I was just wanting to understand how it work usually as I thought this would be a case for the getting the more "direct" radar vectors. I do have "random radar vectors" enabled and maybe this is why. But the way it was on my flight is fine I guess in this case it will sometimes give you radar vector sometimes not?

Thanks! Alex

When there's a published transition without a manual termination waypoint at the end, ATC will have you fly the published transition.  If you have random vectors turned on, it might give you vectors, but the default is to let you fly the transition as it is published.

Makes sense, thanks!
