Hmmm. I will have to think. I am having a problem where IYP will not make the
turn to final at some airports even though everything has been done correctly.

Subject: [bvipilots] Re: Problem with flight following announcements
Greetings,
I did, but nothing changed.
It also doesn't echo back when I change the altitude during a flight.
Actually no problem because it automatically contacts ATC while climbing or
descending, but I am really wondering about the flight following announcements,
why they don't work.
Regards,
Patrick.

I have not seen that exact issue. Have you tried reinstalling IYP?Blind and Visually impaired Pilots mailinglist

Subject: [bvipilots] Problem with flight following announcements
Hey all,
I am Patrick and I am using IYP for quite a while now. I'm usually
flying IFR flights with direct GPS routing. In the voice commands
lists, I read about flight following. It says that I can always envoke
my copilot to make a flight following announcement by saying "make a
flight following announcement". So far, so good, but it doesn't work.
In fact, it only gives me the usual clicking sound, but nothing in addition.
I activated flight following, cargo flight following and general
aviation flight following, but mike remains silent, as far as flight
following announcements are concerned.
I always have a cruising altitude of something over 20000 feet with
cargo/passenger airlines such as the boeing, and the with general
aviation aircrafts mike should already start giving flight following
announcements after reaching 3000 feet.
Is there anything I did wrong? Is it possible that the required data
for flight following announcements for IYP is missing, does all that
belong to the database which might need an update?
I hope somebody can help me.
Best regards,
Patrick.
