Alan_A Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Just started operating from KDCA and on both of my departures, an Airtran aircraft (Citrus 614, looks like a Fokker or some other kind of small rear-mount twin turbojet) is stuck on Runway 1. ATC sees him and keeps instructing him to "exit runway when able." He doesn't move, and all landing traffic is instructed to go around. The only way I can depart is to roll through him (crash detection is disabled). Shortly after, of course, ATC cancels my IFR clearence because I haven't been cleared to take off. Is there any fix or workaround for this? Am using MyTraffic 5.3 under Windows 7 64 home premium. Thanks in advance for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First recommendation would be to update to 5.3a and apply the after 5.3a so that we look at the same software. From 5.3 to 5.3a, there are thousands of little changes, among them a change to the B717MX\sim.cfg in the update and in the patch which might affect such behaviour.

Alan_A Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Apologies - I misspoke. It turns out that I'm on 5.3a already. What should I check next with regard to the 717? Thanks for your help so far - and thanks in advance for the next round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
