FS1TR Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 After issuing the command "Pushback approved, expect runway 24R" I realize that I meant runway 25R. Is there a command to correct this? Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kl408 Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Simply repeat the command with the correct rwy.. Groeten Willem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana Rippey Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 I have found that if you issue the command to pushback to one runway and then decide to change it by mistake or purposefully, you can just tell them to taxi to that different runway by simply selecting "Runway" and then the correct number. Does that make sense? You don't have to tell them to pushback again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky King Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Great suggestions! One thing that would be useful (especially at KLAX) in airports with multiple runways would be to be able to designate one runway as a default for arrivals (such as 25L) and one default for departures (such as 25R). This could be done at the initial page when a runway is selected. Regards, SK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takeoff runways are not specifically select-able since the ground controller assigns them anyway. In Tower3D Pro, default landing runways (those assigned by approach control) can also be changed during a session using the buttons along the control panel.

Sky King Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Just tried it. Works like a charm. Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crbascott Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 The menu screen is for arrival runway selection only. So, yes, by deselecting 25R all arrivals will initially be sent to 25L. You can obviously send them elsewhere with an ENTER FINAL RUNWAY command. You determine where departures are sent, you can send a plane to any of the runways. There is no active runway setting.

Avwriter Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Glad you found what you were looking for. Don't forget you can also use the buttons on the control panel for the same thing - the strip of rectangles with runway numbers right under the command buttons, that highlight in green when you click them. If they are green, it means the runway is active for landings. Try it. Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
