Multiplayer and ATC....(cry)...!

I love going on-line, in Multiplayer, during the day to see if anyone else is on, for a short fly-around...
..the trouble is...I lose my Air Traffic Control company, and general assistance, when doing so!... :'(...!

Much of my General Aviation touring is done under VFR and IFR/ILS flight conditions, and I quite enjoy the default ATC chatter with the lovely Lady in the Control Centre, when dialled into "Flight Following/Radar Control" etc.... :-*....!
Of course, none of this is possible when in Multiplayer Mode, which is a bit of a shame, (and she misses me...apparently!!).... ;D...!

So, there you go Chums, no ATC in Multiplayer Mode...which means I can occasionally get lost!.... :o......!

Fozzer,

You could always try one of the online server places that has ATC.............. like VATSIM or IVAO.

But you'll have to actually fly by VFR rules as in the real world.

...now that is the REALLY scary part. JB.... :o...!

...its not quite the same relaxed, easy-going flight with my Sim V Chums... ;)..!

The infinite patience and tolerance of Microsoft's ATC is necessary to accommodate my attempts to comprehend and respond to their "last instructions" over the Radio!.... :-[....!

"Say again" is my automated response... ::).... ;)....!

Filing a IFR Flight Plan certainly keeps you on your toes communicating with ATC for the duration of the flight... especially when GA and Commercial AI is set near 100%!...:o...!

...interesting, though... ;)...!
