Cancelling IFR causes CTD

Featured Replies

I'm curious if anybody else has encountered CTD when you ignore the ATC and it cancels IFR or if you request IFR cancelation.  Once I've determined it was reproduceable I just stopped using ATC. (CTD occurred when I was busy taxing to my gate and inadvertently ignored ATC therefore it canceled IFR) 

But then I saw that none of my takeoffs were being logged in the logbook.  I've  since read this is a bug if you don't request takeoff clearance.  So I've started getting takeoff clearance and then just ignore ATC for the rest of the flight with no issues.  Today I tuned in ATC during my descent and I thought I was going to be smart and just cancel IFR prior to landing and it immediately CTD.  So I can faithfully reproduce the CTD by either letting the ATC cancel IFR if I ignore long enough or if I actually ask it to cancel IFR.  I've done searches but I see no mention of this CTD anywhere so I'm curious if this is unique to my system.  Otherwise I never have CTD if I don't use the ATC.

Yes it is a bug, I reported it more than a year ago to the Zen Desk but it has yet to be considered by Asobo.

If you use ATC on your flights, you cannot ignore the landing instructions as it will lead to a "IFR is cancelled" by ATC on the ground which in turn will trigger a CTD. The "work around" is to cancel IFR yourself BEFORE you are on short final when you decide to ignore the ATC landing instructions (for example when you disagree with the runway given by ATC). As long as you cancel IFR without actually having your wheels on the ground, your flight will remain active and you won't have a CTD.

Thanks Bernard for confirming. Good to know at least the problem is not my setup.
