Declan,
Wait until Mike says you are clear of the runway, which might take a few
minutes. Also, try acknowledging the controller, even if you haven't moved
yet.Hope this helps,Zack.

Just a quick question about a command, when I have landed and the controller
says turn off at the next taxiway, I asked Mike to taxi to general aviation
parking and he says that we are doing this, but it doesn't sound like we are
moving and the controller still keeps repeating this command.

Declan,
Did you perhaps pause the sim or hit q by accident? Either of those would
mute the sounds. The only other way to mute engine sounds requires
intentionally going into the options dialog, which I doubt could happen on
accident.
Best,
Zack.

Hi, so here's what I think was happening. As you correctly said, when I
said acknowledge it must've put the simulator into pause mode back on
the flightplan screen. At the time I didn't realise this was was the case
and that's why I was reading through the manuals just to try and find a
reason for it going back to the flightplan screen. Obviously it just went
into pause, so I guess my only question is once this happens how do I
get back onto my active flight screen. I realise now that I should have
simply said report traffic insight at the time. I apologise for making
things more confusing,
Thanks Declan.

Hello Declan,
I was merely responding to your question using the information your
provided as a basis for analysis.
If as you stated, you responded with the phrase "Acknowledge" in
response to an ATC controller indicating that there is traffic nearby,
that would have cause IYP to emit the "1" key which would have selected
the option to [Select a New IFR destination] from the ATC menu. By doing
so, the simulator would have been placed in the pause mode and the
"flight plan" panel would have properly popped-up in order to facilitate
IFR selection.
If on the other hand, your would heve responded with (as I stated), "We
have the traffic", or "Traffic in sight", that would have cause IYP to
emit the "2" key (the required response) and the flight would have
contined as normal.
Thus, I am confused by your statement... "I've made sure to read all the
manuals".
Regrettably at this point, I neither know how to proceed, nor how I can
help you.

Hi, I've made sure to read all the manuals, but despite that when ever
I am flying the game sometimes puts me back on the flightplan screen.
Is this the game crashing or the aircraft? I can't think of any reason
why the aircraft itself would have crashed, but is that the simulators
way of telling me I crashed the aircraft?

As I believe I stated previously, you really need to go through the
SimpleATC command set. The proper response in this instance is
documented as:
Traffic in the Area
If ATC states that you have traffic in your area, and asks you to
report that you have the traffic in sight, simply say,
"Traffic in sight", or "We have the traffic"
I strongly suggest that, despite your anxious feelings to get
airborne, consider that you're going to be flying a "real airplane".
With that said, you'd never take off without reading ALL of the
manuals... especially the sections involving the extremely complex ATC
communications protocols.

So just a quick query, I was flying when the controller informed me
of traffic four miles at 12 o'clock. I said acknowledge but nothing
happened so I assumed it would be fine. About a minute later my Sim
crushed and jaws said I was back on the flight plan screen, but I
couldn't explore the interface with the keyboard , does this mean my
aircraft crashed? It's your plane was also responding to my command
still but I have no sound of the aircraft.

Declan,
No, I was talking about the flight file, which is
distinct from the flight plan file. The flight file
has a .flt extension, and are created by the save/load
buttons on the main “free flight,” screen. Those are
the buttons you need to use, not the save/load buttons
on the flight plan screen.

Declan,
Either screen reader should be okay. YOu probably
want to start from a gate or ramp.
When you create and save your flight, are you then
loading it into the sim again? If you don’t do this,
you will still get your “no flight plan has been
loaded,” message. This is not actually true, as the
“destination work around,” I mentioned previously
still lets you fly and get distance information and
so forth.

If I wanted to make a flight plan, and I think I'm

Just in case if one is easier, I have jaws and NVDA.

This is a bit buggy, or at least not as intuitive
as it could be. You've created a flight plan, but
you haven't saved an FSX flight. You can read
about the process in the flight deck document on
the IYP site, or alternatively just say, "Make the
destination airport 'icao code'," which also seems
to work. Personally, I feel like flights are just
a little too cluttered, and I prefer this latter

If FSX isn’t paused, the “Q,” key is used to
mute and unmute sounds. Is it possible you hit
this by accident? Alternatively, P pauses or

Hi, so I'm still having problems getting it's

what I'm doing at the moment if someone could

click on free flight, select the Cessna

I'm not doing a flight plan at this point.
Then I click fly now. I wait for the scenery
to fully load, and i usually get an engine
sound from the aircraft but I have been told
by someone cited that the plane is currently
sitting on the ground. I alt tab to it's
your plane and Mike starts talking,
explaining about me being in the trial
version. Then he says it's your plane we are
ready to go, but when I try and give him any
commands, like do all checklists or open
options panel or something, nothing happens.
I just get the beats from speech recognition
telling me it didn't understand, even though
I have configured it already. Also, when I
tab back to Microsoft flight Sim, I no longer
hear the engine sounds. I'm just not sure
where I'm going wrong really.

Hi Declan,
This is probably because you just picked the
type of aircraft you wanted, and not its
location. The default FSX flight starts with
you already in the air.
The solution is to go to the second Change
button, which lets you pick an airport to
park at. The search interface is a bit
confusing, and I usually just memorize the
airport ID of the place I want.
Hope this helps,
Zack.
