Keep getting ATC calling aircraft "Experimental"!!!

Featured Replies

I know this has been addressed before, but how do you keep ATC from calling your aircraft "Experimental?" I have tried changing atc airline and atc id and nothing seems to work. I want to use "Citation." I am using a FS2000 aircraft that I modified for FS2002. Thanks for your help!Airbus

I think the awwnser is in this two lines you can change the atc model to what you like and that is where flight sim will identify it but only if it is on the list of aircrafts that came with shuffler or tools:[Micro Jet]<"Learjet 45">LearjetAvroRJ85RJ-85Dornier 328RJ200RJ-200CRJ100CRJ-100These are what is there now ,if citation is not there it will not work less you add it.So either change to one that is there or add it and you will not get experimental ok[General]atc_type=Concordeatc_model=B744[General]atc_type=AIRBUSatc_model=A320

There are several hundred aircraft types accepted by ATC including eight models of the Cessna Citation. Add the following entries to the section of your aircraft.cfg file and ATC will call you "Citation".atc_type=CESSNAatc_model=C500Replace the brackets with square ones. Square brackets do not display on this forum, so I used the <> ones.For a complete listing of all the airlines, manufactures, and types ATC will accept, download Eric Buhagiar
