I was flying on expert server from CYVR to KSEA (With ATC instructions). Here are two things I would like to ask about. The first thing is, when I takeoff from CYVR, the ATC (Sorry that I forgot his name) told me to LUAW RWY 12, and I used the speed of 15 knots to go on the runway. Then he told me to follow instructions or you’ll be ghosted. Oh, come on, I didn’t intended to takeoff; I’m an experienced Grade 3 pilot, and I know the meaning of LUAW (I checked the ATC manual before). Screenshots of replay:
The second thing is even more confusing. I was off runway 16C, crossed runway 16L, and asked for premission to taxi to parking. The ATC @RoyalJordanian didn’t reply to me (Probably because it was busy at that time). Then a pilot cut in my aircraft like this (Screenshot):
It was American 3565, (and I pressed the “Report” button soon after he did that; Guess it didn’t work, so I am sending a topic here), taxiing like this.
Please help me with this. Thanks!
The map shows that you went far down the runway. Line up and wait means that you line up on the runway and stop once you’re lined up, not keep rolling. That’s why the PFI was likely given.
Also I don’t see a taxiway near you in that replay so that is a sign that you may have rolled too far.
Your question about the report was already answered, however you already know the controller’s IFC username, I suggest you DM him to discuss your concerns, especially why did you receive a please follow instructions when you were already in the process of LUAW.
We cannot speculate as to why you received that message, so disregard any comments like the ones I already see. Only the controller will be able to answer your question.
I saw you rolling on the runway at 20+ knots. So i’ve no other way of knowing your intention that you’ll not takeoff. It would be better to warn you that you were are not cleared for takeoff.
For the rest part on arrival @RoyalJordanian will help you out
Thanks. I was confused at that time. I know nearly all ATC commands in IF and I’m practing to become an IFATC; I can’t forget a basic LUAW command😂 Maybe next time try the “Plz wait for clearance before takeoff”; this will not give pilots a shock. Being ghosted is really a shock on Expert Server. Thanks for your great controlling anyway!
MaxSez: Why wasn’t the incident Jazz Aircraft Ghosted Ground? An obvious gross violation. Intersection Departure, 20+ run to the centerline, no speed limit on the rway, 30 on the taxiway. No warning called for here.
I feel your pain @Leonard.Brownies…
