REPRODUCTION STEPS

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

1.choose a mission
2.check weather adjust flight plan send to atc
3.start the flight
4.atc will give you the original runway, or you will be instructed to taxi to the original regardless of if it is appropriate or not
5. try to disable enforce flight plan and you cannot
6. cancel ifr in flight, if the game does not ctd, which it may you get “fly plane to planetypepropeller or some other nonsensical destination

YOUR SETTINGS

xbox s

I am sure this is not the first report, not even second or third, but this remains an issue MONTHS into the release. I could do more bug reports about the efb and xbox controller setting which was first discovered in SU beta 2 and subsequently released into the retail build because these bug reports are not taken seriously, they are fragmented over an entire forum and there apparently is not much testing going on…or someone above the devs just doesnt care.

• Yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• Happens especially on departure. No matter how many times I try to change the departure runway to the recommended runway with a head wind, ATC insists on sending me on a tour of the airfield, crossing multiple runways, to get to the hold short for the opposing runway with a tailwind. However, it does also frequently do the same for arrival. To make matters worse, there is no option in the Comms to request or declare another runway.

Even when it does accept the flight plan for arrival, the hold short is still in position for the opposing runway making I have to taxi back to the start.

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

Flight Plan: Departure RWY 18
ATC Comms: RWY 36

I wish I could turn off the “ATC enforce flight plan” assistance aswell, if only for a more realistic use of active runways in career mode, especially with airliners.
