Career mission requires me to land on a runway from an impossible direction


ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
The career mission requires me to land on a runway from an impossible direction. I have encountered this issue twice, so I decided to report it.

Tonight, I did a charter private mission to airport LFHU, which is a tiny mountain airport that can be approached from runway 06 only. Before flight, EFB has made runway 06 automatically then I send to ATC and avionic again.

However, when I started to circle above the runway, I realized the mission asked me to take a visual approach and land on runway 24. I ignored it and landed. The mission judged me as an undesignated landing zone.

Whenever you are about to land, after you have selected your airport, select your runway in the communications box before you announce position. Keep selecting the runway you want until you get the green box with the tick in your mission steps that gives you permission to fly towards final.
If your avatar pilot selects the wrong runway you can also reverse this by going to the comms box again and going to select runway you want and announce it again straight away.

Another way is if the blue boxes are on the wrong runway final you can change it again in your EFB and resend to ATC it someties changes the box to the runway you want.

Like the reply above… this real easy to adjust in the efb and atc menu.

Just select another runway on the efb and send to atc than request or select the another runway in atc menu when reaching the airport.

It seems like a workaround. I just don’t understand why it changes under VFR rule.

ATC is full of bugs but it is slowly improving.
