Nearly got a violation

Support

Infinite Flight, please resolve this issue because I nearly just got a violation because of it.

I was at approach on EHAM and everything was looking good so far… until suddenly and somehow, my frequency changed to a unicom (on my mama I didn’t press ANYTHING)… I just thought “oh weird, the controller probably tired so he left”

So I used the UNICOM and announced I am inbound on the ILS RWY 27, but as I was doing that, I noticed that an ATC was still talking to other players even though I was at the Unicom frequency so I was starting to get a little suspicious…

My speculation was right, as while I was a few feet/nm away from the runway, an ATC talked to me saying I was cleared to land RWY 27, so I tried to reply but I couldn’t, so I tried switching frequency by tuning out of the unicom, but then NO frequency was in sight except for the unicom?..

Now I was starting to panic as I was too focused on this bug so I was too low papi’s all red… I just ignored that for a bit and focused on getting the plane on the ground, but as I was also doing that, the ATC kept contacting me to “you’re in an active airspace/airport contact this frequency 127 point blah blah blah” but I just couldn’t see the frequency button! Atp I just wanted to log out…

I checked and checked after that… but still nothing except for the EHAM unicom… then the ATC contacted me again that I was in an active airport.

So boom I just left.

By the way, this happened less than an hour ago, so I think some ATC can investigate this ig, or a tech person, just please resolve this issue ASAP.

In fact, this also happened to another person while he was on final approach RWY 27R (I think) at EGLL… the ATC was trying to contact him but he was switched at a different frequency while still hearing the ATC at another frequency.

It seems you might have had a connectivity issue. Could you please send over your replay so we can take a closer look?

Honestly, boom, you just left might be the most stress-free air traffic solution Smart move, though it’s better to avoid potential traffic conflicts or an unintended report due to connection issues.

Honestly I don’t think it’s a connection issue because if it was, then the planes around me would’ve disappeared for a bit then come back and the ATC chatter should stop…

but sure I’ll send the replay if I can

Sounds like a comms failure

Hey!

Something similar happened to me while taking off from Athens a few days ago.

The difference was that an ATC switch happened before the problem occured. Then after they switched, no active tower showed up for me anymore, even tho I could connect to ground and ATIS, the only tower available was UNICOM.

I assume there was indeed an ative tower at that moment because once I tuned into ground to see if anything was going on, they told me to contact active tower (???) and planes before me were also taking off without saying anything AT ALL on Unicom, so they must have been talking to the active ATC somehow.

Also left the server before I could get a violation because I was the first in line to takeoff with no way to communicate with ATC, but that was really weird. And no, I don’t think it was a connection issue as all planes were loading, taxiing, taking off, landing just fine…
