ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue: Regardless of the Airline I select, the ATC will always refer to me as Alaska Airlines. This is also regardless of what aircraft (not sure if the callsign is sync’d to a certain livery on an aircraft but it seems to just think I am Alaska Airlines all the time!)

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)? Every flight.

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

  1. Free flight mode - select EFB and plan flight. I select the Airline (example: Delta), select Delta livery. I choose a flight number: DL209, Airline = Delta Airlines, ATC callsign: Delta 209

  2. I send the data to ATC and Avionics

  3. Start the flight - I am…Alaska airlines per ATC lol
