Response to arriving aircraft

[wsuch]

Hi

 

I would like to see a command added when arrivals make their initial call in,  perhaps

 

Radar contact

Continue approach

Report established final or joining long final perhaps

 

It appears the only initial communication to give arrivals is a clear to land or join final etc but they are over 10 nm out when handed to tower so in my mind its too early to give landing clearence but would be good to give them aknowledgement

 

Thanks

Wayne

Wayne,

Just wanted to set your expectations as you've been quite busy on the forum. Development on Tower!3D Pro is complete. The focus is on airport development and bug fixes.

However, there is mention of a next version (Tower!3d XXX) somewhere down the line. At the point they are ready, FeelThere will open up a topic for suggestions.  

Your asks/requests are certainly valid, but mostly fall in the "next version" category.

Radar contact at that stage is not an FAA (or probably ICAO) approved phaseology, unless perhaps arriving from a non-radar environment (which there are none in Tower).

thanks good to know there is no further development, thanks also sky king yes you are right continue approach would have been good thought, maybe on the next version
