What FS 2004 ATC does...

[EHM-1821 Javier]

Regarding a screenshot of FS2002 ATC mixing up traffic on the taxi way sending aircraft into each other and everyone not moving (I forgot where i saw it,screenshots forum or library)I remember someone saying that he has not seen it in FS 2004.

Now I have...



and what happens...


The 737 actually ran over the Learjet 45?!! Both aircraft were undamaged.

Dangerous stuff...:o:o

Wow, it looks like some divine miracle that no one was injured!!

I have never seen ATC in FS2004 do something like this. I thought they got 'smarter'... maybe not!!

oh, that's nothing compared to when I saw an easyjet disappear while it was flying. I wish I had a screenshot, but it happens about once every two months, so i'll try to capture it next time.

What i don't get is how ATC is always so calm.

"Shuttle has exploded"
"shuttle has crushed audience"
"Pilot burning"
"Shuttle disintegrating"
"Shuttle blown up half of space station"

and they never raise their voice once. I came across something in an airport, where a VFR pilot was stuck in IFR conditions. It went like this.

"MAYDAY! MAYDAY! I'M IN A CLOUD! HELP!"
"Return to normal altitude"
"I'M GONNA CRASH!"
"turn radio to 118.0"
"I HAVEN'T GOT TIME! I'M GONNA DIE!"
"Return to altitude"

Luckily, the pilot found his way out of the cloud, but I just find that weird.

Ive seen that happen often in FS2004, some airports are horrible for that, it all depends on the layout, and if you know in advance get an AFDAC file from AVSIM, they have plenty for pretty much every airport you can think of.

Cheers,

Alex.

PS. Javier, are you spanish?

[EHM-1821 Javier]

hi Alex!

No i am not Spanish. I am Singaporean.

Why did you ask? did i sound spanish?

Cheers!

[EHM-1343 Jonathan]

Javier is a spanish or latin american type name;)

[EHM-0744 Alex]

True Razza, however on another thread I remember hearing you wanted a final with Spain in it, that and the name puzzled me.

Cheers!;)

[EHM-1821 Javier]

I have a friend in my class with the same name too;D

and about that final, i said england and spain because that is where most of liverpool FC's players are from and their coach too!

also, i like these two countries

Cheers;D

[EHM-E4S]

you suport liverpool eh?

very interesting:8

I don't care much for football, but if you watch the matche, you will now about that 7-0 fiasco with my old team.

Actually, that was cool! I like Liverpool, but as i said before, I don't really care much for football.

[EHM-1671 Ben]

I think, when it all comes down to it... the Los Angeles Lakers are the best. That or the San Antonio Spurs. In my opinion, basketball is better than soccer by a long shot.

*You call it football, I call it soccer, let's call the whole thing off....*

[EHM-1821 Javier]

Lakers are getting worser you know?(my opinion too)

I dont like basketball though, just that i watch sportscenter so i know about it;D

[EHM-1671 Ben]

I'm not a completely avid supporter of basketball either but I personally would prefer to watch a game of basketball than soccer. Although, I might see what happens with the world cup

[EHM-E4S]

I think both of them are boring, I mean the ball always just goes back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. It's more fun to play those sports then watch in my opinion. My fav. sports are tennis, swimming and cricket.
