| Pilot Assistant | |
Dylan Savage   17th Mar 2014 22:51:51 | Hey Guys, I am hosting a server in the B.C./Seattle area.
Most of the seaplane bases are 3 charactor.(W33 W55 CAX6 ect....) Pilot Assistant will not all for that. Is there something i can do to fix this |
Dave Wave   17th Mar 2014 23:11:58 | I'll check it out and see if this is a problem.
PS, how many characters in CAX6 :) |
| Dylan Savage 17th Mar 2014 23:47:06 | Four. thanks Dave.. Most of the U.S. Seaplane bases are 3 Characters. Another thing, how do i get someone to register in Ground and someone in Tower and someone in Approach at the same Airport? |
| Tim Walters 18th Mar 2014 19:50:44 | W33 = Friday harbour.. Add a space to the end to make it four characters and it will find it.
ie. 'W33 '. T. |
| Tim Walters 18th Mar 2014 19:59:53 | However, it's still not recognised as 4 characters long even though it's recognised...
I'm sure I managed it one time, but can't remember how... Tinkering.... |
| Tim Walters 18th Mar 2014 20:12:49 | OK, this is a bit messy:
Type: W33[SPACE][DEL][ALT+255] Will list the ICAO, but not 'Friday Harbour'... |
| Dylan Savage 18th Mar 2014 23:45:40 | On another subject. Is there a way to private message a player from withing the FSX chatbox? |
| Tim Walters 19th Mar 2014 10:40:12 | Not in FSX that I know of. You can PM them in FlightStrips if you/they are logged in. TeamSpeak is another option. |
| Dylan Savage 19th Mar 2014 23:20:09 | I still cannot file a flight plan with an icao of 3 characters, and flight strips will not allow it either. This is a big problem for my server as i am based out of B.C. and most of my main waterdomes have 3 character icao's |
Dakoda Neilson  20th Mar 2014 05:27:48 | Any three letter code in the USA can be changed to a 4 letter ICAO code by adding 'K' to the front. Example a Local airport near me and one I used for my IRA check ride is 48A in order to file with DUATS you must add the K to make it K48A.
If that doesn't work you can try KFBS or FBS for the IATA code. |
| Dylan Savage 20th Mar 2014 22:31:32 | I try what you suggested Dakoda and that did not work. :(
any other thought.. I am flying from Friday Harbour Seaplane Base W33 i know that if i do a !fp it will take but i want pilot assistant and flight strips to accept it too. And of right now it does not. |
| Dakoda Neilson 21st Mar 2014 03:40:24 | Have you tried another seaplane base? |
Ricki Jones  22nd Mar 2014 17:49:18 | pilot assist does`nt show in my game, how do i get it to run in fsopen game? |
