Go around issue

[Gaz 15]

I think I have this problem just because I am terrible at flying (student so far) and I'm interested in others help, but I'd love help support :

I've got frustrated with an issue in P3Dv4, although this was also a problem decades ago when I was using Flight Simulator!

Basically, if you want to do a go-around, and you declare the missed approach to ATC, they will give you some immediate instructions, but then practically forget about you! I've just done it on a flight that look an hour to get to EGLL (Heathrow), but I finally exited out of P3D when it stopped communicating with me. I had put me on a course, but then a 1-hour flight turned into more than 2 hours, just to then be 'given up' on.

Its clear that aircraft are treated differently on their first try at landing, but if you have to declare a missed approach in P3D, I'm getting the impression now that it's pointless, and you may as well start the flight from new!

Do others get this?

Nope.

Do you use the builtin atc?

I actually cut it after departure, and let me guide to final. I then turn the thing back on around 40nm and if i hae to G/A then I go to hold point and try to land witout traffic nor clearance. P3D's vanilla's ATC is buugy, and unrealistic. I just keep it because I don't think I could keep up with the real-timeness of IVAO and VATSIM. THAT will be my next step.

Get PRO-ATCX, VOXATC or PF3.

The default ATC will always do this to you.

I think you and I work alike with this stuff. The way I get around not working with ATC after takeoff is when it tells me to change frequencies - I do do it, but I don't contact the next sector. I don't contact ATC in fact until its nearly decent time.

My problem is with the go-around stuff, though. I find it terrible in P3D and FSX.
