Airline Flight Numbers In FSX

PS - I actually create two Voice Packs when I update with EditVoicePack - one NA and one ICAO phrasing - copying each to a storage folder after they finish compiling.Then use a short file copy script to place the correct one in the folder before I start an FS session.We can make a code play almost any sound file we wish - even calling the number one "Sweet Potato" if we wish.I think the real issue is that FS has only one code / process / thread to play numbers.Let me look at the default voice codes when I get home.

Okay the MS default voicepack has most of the numbers from one to one hundred. The others might be there but I haven't found them. About 15-20 missing.I can create the following entry:atc_airline=KLM 88atc_flight_number=And the ATC plays back "KLM Eighty Eight"89 is one of the numbers I have not found.If you had a favorite flight number - it could be programmed as a custom airline name which includes the flight number.But that would certainly be too much work to create a different fltsim.x section for every flight number.

whatever ACES do out of the box you can bet RC5 will improve on it however good it is when it starts. I did notice now you can ask for parking, gates or fuel pump now though when landing.

Have they finally updated RC so we can add the thousands of missing airlines, airports, aircraft models, and manufactures which can be done with EditVoicePack?Or are we still limited to the chosen few?
