Default ATC seem flawed close to destination

Featured Replies

When doing an IFR flight using default ATC it seem to make sense until I get close to my destination airport,

It seem I myself must ask for vectors for every turn needed and then it directs me on a long roundtrip around the airport. I am not told by ATC to turn to a new heading unless I ask for vectors myself.

Also my destination was EHLE which has a ILS approach to runway 5 and I was using live weather. Rwy 5 would be with a headwind. But instead I am assigned to land on rwy 23. When I explicitely asked for ILS rwy 5 I was told to follow vectors to ILS rwy 5 and then circle to land on 23.

ATC in current state is not very good. I would suggest preselect destination runway based on weather forecast during flight planning phase, then ATC will behave according to the plan!
