Hi there, Dave, while I wait for an hour or two to apply the patch you sent, I thought I'd hit you with another topic. Again, it could be me, not the program. It's pretty common for me to set a optional runway in sim brief, generate the fight, then import into P2A, but have P2A insist on its own runway even after the import, even though a different runway has been generated in the Sim Brief flight plan. It seems odd that P2A ignores the runway I set in simbrief. It's hard to "convince" it to take the preferred runway - doable, with the App/Dep Procedures button, but it seems like the runway should be absorbed with the rest of the Sim Brief import.

Ok, good luck Dave!

Okay... I did see the track during the flight after I pressed Activate and it looked reasonable, but the program just never had me start following it. I expected to be told to start to descend around the TOD, and told to turn right [to 30 degrees] near the point marked start, but that didn't happen. The XPlane (Citation X) autopilot had me take a minor-ish right turn that took me from the path displayed on Pilot2ATC, but if that was problematic for ATC vectoring to the approach, I would have expected to be told I was off course and get vectored back to the route shown by hitting Activate.

I suppose this is an old subject, and I know it's not really a bug per say or I suspect it isn't - but I set a perfectly reasonable FP to KPVD ilS rwy 23, and when ATC told me to expect ex vectors to runway 23, I got ready too leave my FMS autopilot control and start using Heading instead of the FMS to set course. I was at the assigned altitude and expecting descent instructions and vectoring, but the vectoring never came. What are the usual causes of this? Thank you so much!

Hi there! It's pretty common for me to set a optional runway in sim brief, generate the fight, then import into P2A, but have P2A insist on its own runway. It seems odd that P2A ignores the runway I set in simbrief. Am I missing anything?

Oh, splendid, can't wait to try - thanks, Dave!

Hi! I've deleted all Online voices and have all available Natural voices installed, yet the only options I have for voices in my dropdown are three Desktop voices and one text-to-speech voice (en-Helen). Any other fixes I should applying to get Natural voices working? I think they DID work when I first installed (and I just uninstalled and re-installed v3.0.2.9)... but I messed around, and now no matter what I do - no Natural voices appear in the Voices dropdown. Can't get a good screenshot of the dropdown, but you get the idea: a few Desktop voices like Zira, a bunch of SAPI New Voice listings that don't do anything, and that's it. How can I get the Natural voices to show as options I can use? Thanks.

Hi there! Thanks Dave for help with Gen Proc... my latest question is why, why I choose a new location and start a new flight, then hit New Flt and Connect in V3, I always seem to remain at the old airport, from the previous flight, though the flt plan is blank. Am I missing a step? Thanks! Happy TGiving....

Oh, I see! I haven't noticed that button yet. So P2A now uses the same word as SimBrief does: "Generate." Good to know... can't wait to try it! I'm loving P2A, but very much still in the "do things badly on simple fights and get better each time" phase. ;->) Thanks!

Greetings! The documentation for Version 2.0, which for now is the only complete documentation, keeps referring to an Autoplan button that will automatically fill out your route with SIDs and STARs and so on.... and this seems like a fantastic feature, but it appears to have been removed in Version 3.0! Is there a substitute for it in 3.0? Is my install simply faulty? Would love to get any guidance from those more experienced than I.... thanks!
