You also don't enter manually for each airport/ and runway. ? If you don't manually supply PF3 with sid/star information for each airport/runway (i.e. procedure names, runways, MAp altitudes, airport specific transition altitudes and minimum FAF altitudes) then PF3 simply announces "cleared as filed, Delta-Papa departure" and "cleared to final for Sierra-Tango approach". (It may not be obvious but delta-papa is PF3s abbreviation for "departure procedure" and by sierra-tango it means "standard terminal"). I mostly fly IFR and I find this non-standard phraseology particularly jarring and it ruins my sense of immersion. I didn't say you "had to use Randomiser for departures, arrivals or departures (sic)". I said you will need Randomiser to "implement dynamic arrivals, departures and parking". The SimRandomiser freeware utility allows PF3 to vary the chance of: vectoring vs procedures, selection of SIDs/STARs and changing airline-based selection of gates.
