Re: First PE flight
I realised I there was another surprise. I am a UK light aircraft private pilot (a bit rusty one). The John Wayne PE Ground controller wanted me to switch on my transponder on while I was still parked on the ramp.

Re: First PE flight
Thank you for your reply. Actually I found in xplane 11 that despite following all that the engine sound drowns out the controller in flight, I had to go to xplane 11 sounds menu and turn the " external aircraft" sound slider to about 20% to get a good balance. I am disappointed to read yo...

Thank you Keith This is actually a pain that even the latest xplane doesnt do the right thing to simulate real world behaviour. I thought it was FAA approved software generally..
