ColR1948 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 So as not to hijack or change the topic of another thread I started this one. As mentioned in another recent thread about 'Why Go Arounds?' This has happened to me a few time during flights, I'm flying for example from Manchester EGCC to Rotterdam EHRD and I'm at the south coast of England about to cross the channel when I get a call to contact an an ATC control that is in the north of England, literally miles away from the sector I'm flying in, I'm sure other have had similar happened to them, make a list of yours.

jgf Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 I don't know of a solution, but I have just the opposite happen on occasion - I take off, fly for hundreds of miles, but can never contact anything other than my departure airport (which is long out of range). I've read you can go to skew mode and just barely nudge the aircraft in any direction then return to normal mode and this will reset ATC ...but it will also reset flight tracking so when you check the map at the end of the flight it will show the flight starting from that point.

You don't say what channel or who you were connected to but I'll wager you were being transferred to a military airport approach frequency (122.5 from memory.) Flight Simulator does not pick up the correct one for these automatically and assigns a name from its database which may be the wrong one. Change the frequency on the airport whose airspace you were actually entering and it won't happen again there. John http://www.adventure-unlimited.org My co-pilot's name is Sid and he's a star!

ColR1948 Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 Thanks John, now you mention it I think it was a military airport they handed me over to and thinking back it usually is military one in other occasions this has happened.
