Hello! Just curious - anyone else just a bit peeved that you can't use 121.5? You can tune to it; but can't do anything with it.
Just for myself; I think M$ missed with that one; even a virtual pilot should be able to call for help.

Yeah, that is pretty lame of them.

If you put in the Comm failre sqwark, what would be the point?  They cant ask you whats wrong can they

Flight Unlimited had an option where if you dialed 121.5; you got a transmission option that indicated distress. I'd imagine something similar for FS2004; which would clear the airwaves and give you #1 to land at the nearest airport. Not much; but enough to give an impression of ground assistance.

Yeah but atleast they know that there is no point trying to get through and can deal accordingly.
