The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000

This article was previously published under Q251142

SYMPTOMS

When you run one of the programs listed at the beginning of this article, you may experience the following symptoms:
  • When you press the PLUS SIGN (+) key on the number keypad, air traffic control (ATC) chatter does not start scrolling across the screen.
  • When you press a key or a button to which you have assigned the "Send ATC text message" command, ATC chatter does not start scrolling across the screen.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because the "Send ATC text message" command is not available in the programs listed at the beginning of this article, even though this command is still listed under the Assignment list in the Controls Assignments dialog box.

MORE INFORMATION
