Yes, I'm using the correct call sign.
The airlines I fly for is Northwest, and the flight number that I use is 1004, which is my Aunt's and my birthday.
My question is this for super ATC.
Would you say
cleared for takeoff runway number click then one zero zero four?
cleared for takeoff runway number, click Northwest one zero zero four
or would it be all on one line before the click?
Cleared for takeoff Northwest one zero zero four
Or also all on one line
Cleared for takeoff runway number one zero zero four.
If you all would like to learn how to add airlines?
Do the following.
Make sure you back it up first.
Go into your flight sim directory.
Be it fsx or 2004.
You'll see a file called airlines.cfg.
That's the file you want to back up.
It's just a text file.
Simply open it up and add on their on lines as many airlines as you would like.
Save the file back to airlines.cfg.
Then go and fire up fsx. use the alt C for the change command, since I usually fly the 737-800 I'll use that for my example.
Make sure that is highlighted then press alt d for details.
from left to right tabing you'll see the tail number, tab over once and if I remember correctly, here's where all of the airlines are at.
Just press N then tab and back tab to hear the selection.
Simply continue to do this until you hear northwest.
Then tab over one more time and you should se a zero in the field.
Just back that out and throw in any number you would like for your flight number. Then you have two options. Alt s to show tail number and alt p for heavy load. I never could understand what the difference is between havy load and non heavy load is. Then tab over to the ok button and press enter, then one more time, tab over and press the enter key on the ok button once again.
I know when you uthe b 737-800 will say orbit airlines.
But it is set up for the new Northwest Airlines.
Hope that helps out my fellow BVI pilots.
Ron

Have you checked you're using the correct call sign?

It's a while since I've used Super ATC, I'll enable it later.

   I don't know if this will help out or not.
But I usually only fly the B 737-800 because of the noise factor for the
747-400.
But I usually do a fuel quanty command.
The normal fuel for the 737-800 is 6,875 gallons.
If it pops up at 6,875 I say no thank you.
I also do a fuel quanty to double check the fuel at each time I do a cruise
checklist.
But maybe someone out there can help me in return.
When you give the voice command cleared for takeoff at runway number and
flight number.
Do you do it all on one line? For example.
The FSX sound effect or AKA tour tells you cleared for takeoff at runway
number.
You come back at say cleared for takeoff at runway number, then hear the
click then say your flight number? Which in my case would be one zero zero
four.
Or do you say the flight number after the click?
So you would have cleared for takeoff at runway two four click one zero zero
four.
Because from takeoff to level flight, I have to use the select one command.
After level flight I have no problems.
Matter of fact, while climbing to level flight I can't even use the copy
voice command.
I have to use the select one command all the way yup to level flight.
Many Many Thanks.
