ATC Incorrect Phraseology

“takeoff” is only used by the local controller,
Avoid using the term “takeoff” except to actually
clear an aircraft for takeoff or to cancel a takeoff
clearance. Use such terms as “depart,” “departure,” or
“fly” in clearances when necessary.
REFERENCE−
FAAO JO 7110.65, Para 3−9−9, Takeoff Clearance.
FAAO JO 7110.65, Para 3−9−10, Cancellation of Takeoff Clearance

Normally only the “local controller” will issue this clearance.

“Avoid using the term “takeoff” except to actually
clear an aircraft for takeoff or to cancel a takeoff
clearance. Use such terms as “depart,” “departure,” or
“fly” in clearances when necessary.”

Do you mind telling me which files you edited to obtain the desired result. I fly in the US near Fort Worth, Texas. I have NEVER heard any controller say, Piper 365, Contact Eff Tee Worth Center. Ever! I pity the poor fool who ever does. He would not live it down. Please let me know how to proceed. I have tried to locate the file(s) and would love to fix.

Thanks in advance

This is a file in OFFICIAL, so you need to be very careful if you edit it, and expect it to be overwritten, with any updates.
ie make a back of the original, and also make a backup of any edited versions.

For English, the text file is en_US.locPak in official\Onestore\fs-base

BE CAREFUL if you choose to edit it !!

Note: Its ONLY the “Ft” in the tss (text to speech) that you need to change to “Fort”
not the ones in the text.

Always make sure you make a copy of the original file just in case.

might need to look at adding this line to your next update:-

“ATCCOM.ATC_NAME_BEECHCRAFT.0.text”: Beechcraft",

as it has been missing since release day.

Also I changed the “continue as planned” to “radar contact” as it sounds better.

All in all thanks for your mod as i could not have sat and changed all that lol.

Yeah I will as soon as I have the time, hope SU5 will not screw it up :sweat_smile:.

well heres hoping (fingers crossed) lol

Apparently some updates ago “Radar” also changed back to “Center” so I have to compare the locPak files and see what line they’ve changed. They only need to change a point somewhere and the script will not overwrite it…

Wow there was a lot of stuff broken since that update with FAA phraseology, I’m working on an update!

That’s no surprise then lol, will wait for update or just use older one I have.

I’ve uploaded the new version to flightsim.to

That sounds good did you add the beechcraft text line too?

I have to look into it as there is nothing to replace.

“ATCCOM.ATC_NAME_BEECHCRAFT.0.text”: Beechcraft",
This line needs adding to atc not replacing

I know but my script is looking up lines which match and replaces them, I have to look up how to add a line where nothing is there to replace, I might have a solution.

ah ok never looked at it that way, another little one is the way it says brize norton, i had to change it to bryze norton for it to be prenouced properly. This is more if you fly over southern England.

Should work now (Beechcraft) with version 1.6!
