and read the overview.
*Overview:*
Simple ATC+ has been dramatically enhanced over previous versions of IYP in
order to make communicating with ATC far easier to use. No longer will you
need to concern yourself as to whether or not the ATC menu is open or
closed. You’ll no longer need to figure out what keys to press - Michelle
will do it for you!
*Background:*
SuperATC was designed to be an online instructor with the charge to “teach”
IYP users the proper “techno-babble” used by pilots during the course of a
flight. It was specifically designed to be EXTREMELY CRITICAL about the
communication syntax used in every situation. That is to say, the order and
expressions used when communicating with Traffic, Ground, Tower, Approach,
Departure, Controllers, ATIS, etc., need to closely follow a tight set of
rules, otherwise error messages occur. SuperATC was never designed as an
application that could be mastered in a few minutes, a few hours, a few
days, or even a few weeks! Rather, it’s like going to college - it requires
a LOT of studying and many hours of practice, with the end goal of having
IYP users “understand” (not memorize) these communication rules.
*SuperATC is Complex!*
SuperATC is extremely complex, and it relies heavily on the accuracy of the
Microsoft databases. Regrettably, there are literally hundreds of errors in
these databases – especially in non-North American countries, and as such,
SuperATC will simply not work properly in some remote and exotic places.
This has led to frustration on the part of some users who prefer flying
General Aviation type aircraft in places like the jungles of Africa!
*EXTREMELY IMPORTANT UNDERSTANDING:*
Simple ATC+ operates the built-in Microsoft ATC system. It is VERY
IMPORTANT to understand that in this mode, you are actually communicating
with Michelle, who in turn communicates with the MS-ATC system. In other
words, in all cases you are issuing instructions to your Co-Pilot, who
carries out the operations with ATC.
My personal summary....
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LEARN SUPER ATC AS A BVI PILOT... PLEASE USE SIMPLE ATC.

At this point, no command or readback is accepted by IYP, and ATC
continually harasses me to acknowledge, and then cancels my flight
plan. Speech recognition is still active, as I can still issue other
commands to the PC. IYP seems to be the only thing affected. I am
not sure why this is occurring. Help, please.
