Im at PDX, ive requested numerous times to taxi. controllers is not responding to me and sending everyone else out before me. what is going on? is this a gltich? when i switched out of frequency he said to me to contact ground wtf???
I successfully requested pushback (he responded), i later requested taxi once prepped. and now im stuck in the quiet zone
how long have you been waiting? 2-3 minutes is normal if it’s really busy. If it’s more than 5 minutes than that’s a issue. How long has it been?
They will get back to you as soon as they can. If they are controlling then don’t expect a response from them until after they are finished with their session as they are already preoccupied.
There could also be a chance your connection may not be stable or some other potential glitch. A controller cannot ignore an aircraft on purpose
tbf i only started doing that after a few mins when other ppl started getting clearances before me (others who requested much after me), including someone right in front of me lol
it is a gltich. end of story. ATC responded and said they responded to me numerous times. i didnt get a single one of those commands. and they likely didnt receive any of mine. unfortunate these bugs exist. might have somehting to do with update
Eh. They’re now lining up. This would be a complicated case and with a good defense, could be pulled off in the trial.
Whatever happened, I’d recommend, be forgotten, and never repeated. Just don’t taxi without permission. It is an infraction and punishable. If you are dealing with the bug, leave the flight. It can save your record.
Now, to end with a rather ironic tone, @Captain_Oblivious, I’d like to say that, despite claiming to “best be sure it’s realistic [your callsign]”, I can say that your callsign is anything but realistic.
