Hi Guys,
How do I get the ATC and Approach Controlers to ID my BOAC Strats as Speedbird or B.O.A.C. ?
My Pan Am. Northwest and American Strats are ID'd by airline why not my BOAC's ?
I added text to the Aircraft CFG's to get the proper verbage from the controllers for Pan Am,Northwest and American but the same changes did not work for BOAC.
While flying FS9 I have no problems with the FS9 controllers they call out Speedbird just fine but not B.O.A.C.
Thanx Cliff

Do you have this line in the aircraft.cfg file for the BOAC paint?

atc_airline=Speedbird

I haven't tested mine lately but that SHOULD do it.

In addition to what Paul said, I think you also have to make sure that the atc_id=xyz is filled in. If you put 123 in there, the controller will call you "Speedbird 1 2 3", otherwise I think he will still default to calling you "Boeing"
