Just downloaded the Beriev Be-200 and am quite pleased with it BUT it doesn`t have a callsign for use with ATC.
Assumed this was the "ATC ID" but that didn`t work, sao I would be grateful for some advice.

Many thanks

If you want to create one from scratch, use EditVoicePack! Takes a few minutes to orient yourself to the interface, but it's very fun creating custom callsigns!

(Home page seems to be down right now, so here's an alternate)

Hello George!... Wink

...!

In the "aircraft.cfg" entry, I type my ATC call sign : atc_id=G-BPLF....which comes over as: "Golf Bravo Papa Lima Foxtrot" over the Radio.

It can also be inserted in the "Tail Number" box, during the Aircraft selection option.

It works OK in FS 2004.. Kiss

...!

Excellent, George!

I always find it useful to insert my own call sign in my aircraft, instead of the generic one...
I know for sure that ATC are actually talking to me then, over my Radio... Grin

..I no longer get the the; "Did you hear my last instruction?"... Embarrassed

...!

Paul....G-BPLF...FS 2004..FS Nav..."Rubber Duck...Roger...Over and out"... Grin
