JF: Regarding the Issue With Callsigns

BBoaBrim

Hi JF.

I have noticed something about the issue of the callsigns being spelled out phonetically rather than being said properly. It has taken me nigh on 5 hours of sitting at various airports just listening to ATC to discover this. It shouldn't have taken that long, but the inordinate amount of time I had to wait for aircraft to start arriving at my departure airport was mind-numbing.

Anyway, what I have noticed is this:

Any aircraft that spawns in with me, according to my Time Before Departure value, which then contacts ATC for, say, requesting pushback from the gate or taxi to the active runway, both the aircraft and ATC will spell out the callsign phonetically.

However, any aircraft that (eventually) lands at the airport and contacts ATC to request taxi to the gate instructions, both the aircraft and ATC will say the call sign properly.

I tried this at EGKK, KJFK and LFPG. At each airport my findings were confirmed.

I am not sure if this is of any help or importance as you search for the bug with the callsigns, but I thought it prudent to let you know what I have discovered.

@bpfonteyn Hello thanks for reporting this. We are already working on an update to the fleet package that should hopefully fix this.
