Hi…im flying only IFRs, and i start atis for weather and assigned runways via metar-taf.com
having now pro ATC, they usually assign runways for departure and arrivals according to current weather.
i notice almost every day, that other aircarfts (using fstfl) are departing or landing from opposite runways direction…(same runway)
Is it a bug ? fsms bug, real live traffic bug ? or other guys not considering the procedures ?
thanks for your advice… Phil
Same thing happens with Pilot2ATC.
These third party ATC programs tend to adhere to correct runway usage better / more so than MSFS so you end up in the situation you see.
I don’t know about Pro ATC, but Pilot2ATC actually has an option to “Force Sim Runway Use” which will override what it thinks it should be using, and use what the sim is so everyone is going the same direction.
Hi thanks for your answer, Pro ATC has also an option that you can change the runway and sid/star. so, as you say, everybody is going to the same direction, but it is kinda questioning me sometimes. I noticed also that when i choose the departure airport/spot in the welcome stream that a runway is highlighted with a red dot, so may be people think it s the departure runway, so they aree mistaken for those maybe not having our level of knowledge. i even check sometimes on flightradar24 to check the runways in use.so i guess it will remain a mistery. thanks for your answer…Phil
