It would be great if the radio chatter like ATC was realistic instead of “gamey”
Perhaps use your existing AI for regional accents

Not accents but the actual wording. I’m not a real pilot but it doesn’t sound technically correct. “A fuel truck is on the way”
I’m sure the mods will be coming for this. Example, the talk with the pushback tug follows a certain procedure involving hand signals and when you can start engines. Plus you don’t ask it to steer or steer it yourself. There are some good mods for this in the other sims.

Hi there,
There is a big phraseology bug report topic
Hello. I’m an airline pilot, just bought the game, and did a quick VFR flight:
Correct ATC interaction for flight following:
You: “[who you’re talking to] [your call sign] [location and altitude] request flight following”
ATC: “[call sign] radar contact [location] squawk [ code] ident, [altimeter setting]”
You: “[your call sign] squawk [code], ident, [altimeter setting]”
This format is important because it gives ATC everything they need while minimally jamming up the radio.
Example:
“Bo…
I really hope the pushback system will be amended and/or improved.
I find it so annoying to call ATC to ‘request pushback’, and then call them again to ‘request push to left’, and then again to ‘stop pushback’, with ATC replying every time that the message has been passed to the engineer.
It is needlessly repetitive and needs a distinct overhaul.
The extra commands in the ATC menu are absolutely fine, but I don’t believe they all need to be voiced and replied to every time, do they?
What I’m…
Ground services should be a separate menu item and it should not be through ATC in my opinion. It would be better to drop the voice request altogether. It is slow and ruins the flow. And it is unrealistic that they are talking on the main ground frequency about this.
