Your more than welcome Fly Girl.
Roomer has it that you just might have another female BVI pilot to fly with.
So keep your fingers crossed. GRIN.
We made space history today.
The space station captured the Dragon spacecraft.
The first ever comercial spacecraft to ever have been launched now docked at the space station and they unload it sometime early in the morning east coast time.
So enjoy.

Excuse the type-o.  I actually have v 270.  I downloaded it from the IYP
website this afternoon.

Oh, and thanks for the aircraft links.  I'll check them out after I resolve
this issue.

Hey Fly gGirl.T
ry up grading to version 270.
See if that doesn't help you out.
Hope that works.

Subject: [bvipilots] ATC not responding to commands

Since installing IYP v 4.1.0.269, I have had several instances where ATC
would not respond to the "switch to ATIS" command or "Request IFR Clearance"
command.  While I am confident skipping the "switch to ATIS" command, my
IYP-VA flight is grounded if I cannot get ATC to respond to my request for
IFR clearance.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled v 269 but have not had any luck getting
ATC to respond.

I have issued the following commands per the latest Special manual which was
released during testing for v 266:
Extended help off.
Blind Pilot Mode On.
Auto-altimeter on.
Audible command confirmations on.
Deactivate Advanced Mode.
Deactivate ATC responses.
I'd like you to handle the landing.

 I should also mention that I am accepting flights from towered airports.

Any ideas how I can get ATC to respond would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Stephanie
