2 questions everyone
Please can we have Atc removed on the training server because it’s so annoying they always lead me to the wrong way with bad instructions
Secondly during Atc vector and altitude instruction please what VS should I use for the decent I really make a a lot of mistake with this
A good explanation would be appreciated thanks everyone
Removing ATC on Training Server would not be very beneficial. While yes, I agree that most of the controllers there are not the best, maybe, they are just training (as the server’s name suggests) or, generally speaking, it’s a place where some controllers who would like to become IFATC can train with an ATC Tracking Thread, for example. It is a place to train for the Expert Server, so, you cannot always expect an almost-perfect (or good in general) service as you would expect on the ES.
It depends on various factors, and you can constantly adjust it. If the controller tells you to “Expedite altitude change”, you will need to use a “harsher” (= more steep) V/S, if you need to slow down during the descent, you can reduce your V/S. I’d say a general - 1,000/1,500 ft/min works for descent. On a climb, you rarely receive altitude instructions on IF, but if you do, I’d say to reduce your V/S if you are climbing too fast and are told to maintain a present (or a close) altitude not to overshoot it.
Yeah, as I said, it really depends on various factors, aircraft used included. I am not an expert about specific aircraft, so, you may want to check out some tutorials which can be found on this forum and made by other IF users. You could practice descents and climbs a bit either on Solo or Casual Server to see what are the best V/S to use in your next flights
I was very close the the beginning of the ils and the Atc on training server said I should decend to 3000ft I was at 14,000ft it was so annoying because there’s so way I will get to 3000ft without having to fly over the runway!
However I must say some of the ATC in the Training Server are excellent, it allows new flyers to also get a hang of how to use ATC aswell, there is some that arent as good but they just trying there best, I find its hit or miss some are amazing some not depends on the day
Most of the time I don’t feel like answering them because they’ve always ruined my flight especially when it’s a long one I won’t like anything to stop me from landing properly
Just an observation from my side. If you were very close to the ILS “cone” (which means you are probably already in TOWER boundaries), why were you still at FL140?
If you want a more realistic and professional experience/service with ATC, training server is not the place, unfortunately. I would highly suggest flying on the Expert Server if you meet the Grade 3 requirements where controllers are trained and certified to do so. As previously mentioned, training server cannot be removed as it’s where both new ATC and pilots gain experience before flying on the Expert Server
