EGBK Sywell — ATC Completely Non-Responsive (Regression)

Title: EGBK Sywell – ATC Completely Non-Responsive (Regression)

Platform: Xbox Series X/S

Version: Current MSFS 2020 (January 2026 build)

Description:

ATC at EGBK Sywell does not respond on any frequency.

This is airport-specific. ATC works normally at airports such as EGBB and EGLL in the same simulator session on the same console.

At EGBK:

  • Radios powered and functioning
  • ATC window shows options and frequencies
  • Pilot transmissions are audible in cockpit
  • MSFS instructs: “Tune EGBK traffic on 122.90”
  • VFR Map shows FSS 122.7
  • No ATC entity ever responds

This is a regression — it worked in earlier versions of MSFS.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Start MSFS on Xbox
  2. World Map → Select EGBK
  3. Choose any aircraft (Textron C152 default tested)
  4. Cold & Dark start
  5. Power avionics and COM radios
  6. Tune COM1 to 122.900 or 122.700
  7. Attempt any ATC interaction (Taxi, Radio Check, etc.)

Expected Result:
ATC responds normally.

Actual Result:
No ATC response at EGBK.

Media:

Hi @SaitekPro10 ,
When creating a bug report, please DO NOT delete the template and fill in all required fields. They are important for the devs/users to replicate/contribute.
If you can add back the template with all information so that it can be moved back to the Bug Reporting Hub . Thank you.

Meantime report moved to User Support Hub .

Moved back to Bug Reporting Hub since OP provided additional information.

Can replicate.
Correct Frequency is the one on the World map 122.705:


Once spawned, ATC propose 122.900 that is not the correct one. No interaction with ATC (even if you tune to 122.705):

Thank you for the bug report.

We have created an internal ticket to see if our team already has this logged, and if not they will attempt to reproduce the issue and create a new bug report. This item is now marked as feedback-logged. If there is an existing bug report or one is created, we will move this thread to bug-logged.
