Wow - great stuff - thank you! I didn't think that Denham would ever get its VRPs! Will try it asap. I did my first flight in 17 years IRL last week at North Weald and sim hours and SI hours really helped.
Hi Mike came across your channel as I’ve just started with a month subscription to SI but I’m struggling with it with what I actually need to say. Is there a tutorial vid been done on the correct phraseology to use? Hence how I came across this vid doing a search. I mostly fly GA from burning blue airfields in the sim. Liked and subscribed 👍
Hi Mike thanks for watching and for the Sub. There are no real rules for SI as they are keen to stress it 'does not run on rails' just ask what you want to do the AI works really well. There is standard format for RT though such as Who you want to speak to - who are you - what to you want or want to do. E.G. Denham radio GBSDP request Aerodrome details or Request Departure. You can look up more standard RT on Google such as what to say on landing. But generally you can say most stuff just no terrorist stuff or profanities etc etc. Great you are using BBD I love them and like you I am 99% GA VFR. I would suggest you also join the Discord as there are lots more experts on there if you have any problems.
@@atcmiker thanks for the reply Mike much appreciated. Think I will get the hang of what to say with practice. Be great to see some more BBD airfields featured in your vids. Popham is my one of my favourites at the moment.
@@mikeallen789 I have added some custom prompts for Popham would appreciate any comments and if anything needs amending or adding. Just let me know, I can normally get it done within a few days.
@@mikeallen789 Its fine, There are standard prompts now for all Air ground stations but I add in the custom prompts to personalise them with VRPs towns nearby masts and parking locations or where Avgas is you can ask for most of these when you are on frequency.
This is absolutely fantastic. Have any other aerodromes in the UK been added with this? I would love to help in any way if I can to make more grass strips in the UK especially the ones by Burning Blue Design.
Thank you, I am working though the BBD Aerodromes in the uk to make them feel more real with SI will hopefully get a couple more done this weekend. I have finished Sandown Bembridge Denham White Waltham Andrewsfield Earls Colne. Was going to have a go at Popham next maybe Redhill.
@@atcmiker That’s fantastic! Thank you so much for taking the time out to do this for the community. Really looking forward to Popham and Redhill as that’s where I do most of my flying. Compton Abbas and Old Warden as well. If there is anything I could do to help, do let me know! Also is there a way to see which aerodromes in the UK have been customised like this? A list of some kind on discord would be great!

@@atcmiker Nice one will take a flight later this evening. Are these custom prompts automatically installed into SI? sorry for all the questions mike
