Re: Western Expansion ATC coverage of satellite fields?

I see that most of the responses center on IFR approaches and so on. I am currently just VFR certified so my flying in the KSLC Bravo is VFR only. Because of the Delta airspaces in close proximity, ATC is necessary for transition requests, entry communications etc. Much more than IFR alone. So my or...

Western Expansion ATC coverage of satellite fields?

Once I heard that KSLC was being covered, my interest was peaked. I live and fly in No. Utah and my question concerns ATC coverage of some of the Delta fields close to KSLC, ex. Ogden KOGD and so on. Will ATC coverage extend to these or strictly KSLC?

Re: New User Questions: SoCal App/Dep?

Harold, Thanks for further information. So if I'm outside of SCT enroute to some airport inside SCT, I should contact SoCal Approach, request flight following to my destination and they will give a squawk code and traffic advisories to my destination? Do they assign an altitude or heading or do I fo...

Re: New User Questions: SoCal App/Dep?

Kyle,

Thanks for the response. The question was probably self evident for most people on this forum, but I wanted to know the general circumstances when you should make use of SoCal. Thanks for the link! I've been searching for something like this for an explanation on use.

New User Questions: SoCal App/Dep?

So I'm a really new user of Pilot Edge for the primary purpose of working on improving ATC communications and Instruments. I'm a new PP with about 85 hours. I live in Northern Utah and all my training has been in the Bravo airspace mostly along the Wasatch front. My question concerns the use of SoCa...

Re: Can't get COMs to work?

Keith, Thanks very much for your help. I have been able to resolve the com issue with my mike not being setup as the default device for recording. That solved the problem. Also, I am now able to see other aircraft. Last night I flew in the pattern at San Luis Obispo and there were at least five or s...

Re: Can't get COMs to work?

Could someone give me a more detailed explanation about how the Plane Sets work? Especially with regard to setting your own plane up in Pilot Edge, i.e. inputting my own A2A C172 model? Does the list of aircraft in the pull down menu constitute the plane set that Pilot Edge uses to render the drones...

Re: Can't get COMs to work?

Keith, Thanks very much for the response. I verified that my headset mike was default for recording also and tried this time at Long Beach. I verified I was transmitting and Ground heard me and confirmed. I then switched to San Luis and they also heard me so that probably was the issue. As for not s...

Can't get COMs to work?

I'm a new pilot in training. I signed up for the trial period today. It seems that I have been able to log onto the server and I have the COM menu showing with COM1 showing green. I tried the preliminary flight from Oceano to San Luis Obispo. I use the "scroll" button for PTT. When I speak...
