Re: Never again on PE - share your mistakes

Today I was landing at KSEA, on the chart that I printed from Airnav it shows KSEA to have three runways, L, C, R. On FSX there are two runways, I was cleared to land 16R, as I was coming in on final I saw only two runways, then I saw what seem to be a thinner runway on the far right side of the air...

Re: type and clearence

In regards to the clearance question. In the real world environment for a VFR flight I always just contact ground and there has never been a problem, on PE however it seems that if there is a clearance delivery freq on the chart/airport layout then use the clearance delivery freq to request your VFR...

Re: VFR: Initial departure heading & altitude

What am I supposed to do with it? KSNA clearence delivery gave me an initial heading and altitude (at or below 2400). Is that just to get mentally prepared for tower instructions that will follow after takeoff, or does this actually allow me to make a turn and climb after takeoff? Thanks, Stefan Af...

This is the way to do it.
Sky Vector is great, I use it all the time with PE.

Re: Advise controller when commencing descent

When I was training as a pilot some years ago (Mid 2000s)we were advised to report changes in altitude for VFR flights, Since being on PE the controllers advised me otherwise,
