Minor improvement suggestions

Recommended Posts

Hi again everyone,These are small things, but they would futher increase realism if implemented: (forgive me for nitpicking or whatever it's called...)- Make only US air carriers use flight numbers in group form in synthetic chatter. In reality, non-US carriers use callsigns such as "Finnair four three one", not "four-thirty-one"- Also, at non-US airports, the leading zero in runway designations is not omitted, e.g. "Finnair four three one, wind calm, runway zero four right, cleared for takeoff"- Make ATIS report transition level if not 180. At least I haven't noticed RC ATIS reporting it.Maybe in V4?Greetings,Ilari

JD, that's exactly what i'm saying. There are many more differences as well, such as "line up runway xx" instead of "runway xx taxi into pos and hold" and "descend to" instead of "descend and maintain". If you want to know more, just ask.Ilari

Personally, I think that on many occasions, the U.S system works better, as with land-and-hold-short operations, when multiple aircraft can be issued landing clearances without having to wait for the runway to be clear. How extensively are you planning to implement these regional differences?Ilari

as realistically as possible. i already decide whether to call pressure in inches or millibarsi also drop the word center, when talking to controllers in non-usa areasthere are many places where i do one thing for usa and another thing for the non-usa areasjd
