How to make the ATC say the airline name again?

[baoding]

Hi, i have just downloaded FSPX and i'm still trying out the demo version. However thinking of buying it(otherwise i won't be on the forum...) But i
noticed as soon as you create a company, the ATC stop calling you by the airline name that was originally set by the aircraft.

For example, i have an Air Canada A340, and after i create the company, and entered AC as for Air Canada in the create company window, and whenever
i speak to the ATC, ATC begin to call me as " Alpha Charlie xxx" instead of " Air Canada xxx". and i find that rather annoying. So is there anyways to
make the ATC speak the airline name instead of the 2 letters again?

Also, for belly landing or gear failure landing to take place, do i have to turn off the original FSX crash detection? Currently i have all the
realistic crash settings to the highest, however, when i did attempt a belly landing today( Not putting down the gear on purpose, and declared an
emergency), it give me the " CRASH" screen as soon as i touched the runway..... I touched down at about -400ft/min, i don't think that's beyond the
aircraft limit of a belly landing is it?

Baoding,

Go to General Setup in FsPX and then from the drop down box beside ATC Callsign select "Use FSX Atc callsign.

Also for the belly landing, verify that beside Visual effect that Visual effects are activated. If this is the case, you may need to kiss the runway. I cant remember the value required for belly landing but you need to be pretty smooth about it.

It will be safe bet to disable crash and collision detection in flight sim, and collision detection in FS passengers... as far as the belly
landing though, you will need to land much softer than that, not sure of what the technical value is but try to make it around 100 fpm or
less. Also if your airline is "air canada", your callsign is going to be alpha charlie.

I agree with Jason on the belly landing. It has to be pretty low descent rate or you wont get the effect.

As far as your callsign is concerned, read the above post on how to get Air Canada back. This is a user preference that can be adjusted.
