Title: Re: ATC callsign problems

I'll take a closer look at the entry. Maybe I missed something important.

This from the FSX SDK:
atc_airline The ATC system will use the specified airline name with this aircraft. This is dependant on ATC recognizing the name. ATC will treat this aircraft as an airliner when this is used in conjunction with atc_flight_number.

If you don't give it a flight number, then the Airline is not mentioned! It must have a Flight Number!

So the ones in red test need to be:
atc_airline=Speed Bird
atc_flight_number=767
so that the ATC will call you "Speed Bird 767" and not just "Boeing", or "Boeing 767".

The attached image shows how the ATC responded once I filled in the blanks. ;)
