Thanks for the quick response! I'm really enjoying being able to actually talk to ATC.
I tried a much simpler flight and I think I'm still having a problem. I put in a direct IFR flight plan from KBFL to KFAT at 4000. About a 50 minute flight in my 172 over flat terrain.
I got clearance, taxi, and takeoff instructions perfectly. Then, nothing. No handoff to departure. I asked for altitude change, silence. I asked for altimeter, silence. My requests were showing up in the ATC window, so they were being heard and translated to text ok.
I actually tried this flight twice. The first time I flew all the way to KFAT. As I landed (without permission, obviously) I got barraged with ATC calls. All of the calls I should have gotten during the flight came one after the other. The second flight, I ran into thunderstorms midway and landed quickly at KTLR. The same thing happened - all the ATC responses unwound at me, starting just before my wheels touched.
Sorry if I am belaboring the obvious, but it seems that the ATC responses are being queued up but not released until I land.
I'll send the log file to admin@pilot2atc.com.
Thanks!
