So I think I have some additional Information. First of all I was not aware that Simbrief plans are not inherently "correct" as they are also based on popularity. This means that if several people use a plan it might pop up, even if not optimal and differ substantially from real world raffic routes. This is also an example I noted in EHAM-EKCH route. Secondly the plan I import from Simbrief into MSFS is not always 100% corresponding to the original plan and when adjusting it in the FMC I could not get the exact same route as in Simbrief/Navigraph Charts or Little Navmapl

Hello, I would like to ask what the correct behaviour is in MSFS when there is no valid arrival procedure starting from the last waypoint of the route given from Simbrief. As an example I take LIME-EDDS with the A320NEO I plan my flight in Simbrief ( I have Navigraph subsciription) and import the flight plan in MSFS in the world map. I actually also use FSHUD and FSLTL but this is not really relevant for this question. I start the flight with all procedures and get the SID for the takeoff and insert it into the MCDU. My flight proceeds until I get the confirmation and instructions from EDDS for Landing (ILS RWY 25). The route initially given in that case was from Simbrief was: (DIL1K) DILEB CVA ARGAX ZUE SUL UBASI When looking at the arrival charts I do not find any arrival procedure starting from UBASI. So I delete UBASI from the fight plan in the MCDU and insert the arrival procedure starting from the now last waypoint SUL (SUL1W)? 1. Is my approach to delete UBASI correct? I have the feeling I am doing something wrong. 2. Another issue is time: I have always the impression it takes me to long to figure out what Arrival/Approach/Transition to select. Is this just due to my lack of experience? Many thanks

Maybe someone here can help me out. I have Windows 7 and FSX acceleration with WOAI packages and and with the above configuration KLM planes do not appear in EHAM MEGAAIRPORT (Schiphol Addon airport) even when enabling VOXATC with traffic slide at max level. The strange thing is that while KLM does not work, Airfrance displays correctly. I know that KLM worked with standard FSX EHAM and it works also with other standard FSX Airports ( I tested Heathrow). The same problem seems to happen also with other addon airports, but I am not sure of this. Having read a lot on Internet I ensured the following: - In all case I tested VOXATC at medium and maximum traffic level, and ATC traffic at 0 and run everytime VOXATC indexer. I also restarted FSX to be sure. - I have disabled all shadows and DX10. - I also tested FSX folders for FS09 traffic files, that reportidly mess up traffic and converted them. - Other WOAI packages seemed to work with no problems (Transavia, BA, Delta, Esayjet, Airlingus,). However I suspect that there some other packages that might have the same problem. I am trying to learn how AFCADS, levels and bgl file work but probably I do not know enough to solve this problem. Maybe it has to do somehow with the AFCAd files and priority files and how VOXATC works reading bgl files and creating its own files (I thought but I am not sure and would know exactly how to verify) that EHAM MEGAAIRPOT has more than one AFCAD file. To me the two WOAI packages and respective traffic files do not have structural differences. Maybe VOXATC hoes a problem identiying the KLM traffic files because of priority issues or similar. If there was a tutorial on how VOXATC works maybe I could try to identify the problem. Any clue? Thnaks in advance.

To give you an example: In the manual it says: "International Clearance cessna one one five one delta will depart north for Eppley at five thousand" But in the VoxATC panel I read: "International Clearance cessna one one five one delta will depart north VFR for Eppley at five thousand" Small difference but still the difference between ATC aknowledging and not aknowledging. If I read the manual but everything is different, what use in reading? Thoeretically I could simply read the Vox panel but I would like to learn to comunicate without having the panel on screen.

I am trying VoxATC to see if it is worth buying. From what I have heard it is, however I have some doubts. My impression is that VoxATC doesn't really "recognize" what you say, but "more or less" crosschecks what you say with what you are supposed to say and after a number of repetitions accepts whatever you say. While I can understand the reasoning behind this, it leads me me to a problem when I make some mistakes, because I am not sure what went wrong. Is there any flexibility on what you can say (options a part) or do you have to say exactly what written in the panel? I am asking because I have read the manual and there are differences with the suggested words in the Vox panel. Sometimes I get answers or suggested words that are different from what I thought according to the manual and I do not know how to proceed or where I am in the process (since I am not sure he accepted or understood what I said). Thanks
