XP11 Runways

Hi Dave,

First, thank you for this amazing addon. Just got done installing voice packs and configuring radio effects and I think I'm in love.

Anyways, I'm using P2ATC in combination with World Traffic 3 and am having an issue where both programs are assigning different active runways. For instance, last night at EGCC, P2ATC was sending me to 23R, while WT3 was taking off/landing on 05L. Winds were light and variable.

My question is, what is P2ATC using to determine active runway if winds are light- is it reading the XP11 .apt file, or does it have it's own database it is accessing? I know integration is coming in the future with WT3, but was just wondering if there is a somewhat easy fix for this in the meantime.

 

Thanks!

In the Taxiway Mnt screen of Pilot2ATC you can designate the "Preferred Light Wind" runways to use and the definition of Light Winds.  If you don't specify them, then P2A will try to decide based on other factors like proximity of the runway to your aircraft, etc.

If you want 05L/R to be preferred, just put a check mark in the Pref Light Wind column of those runways and remember to press the Save Changes button.

Fantastic, this is exactly what I needed while I wait for you and Greg to allow your excellent products to interface.

Thank you!
