Joshua, >From what I've watched on YouTube, it is my understanding that FSX Pilot doesn't play nicely with native ATC with respect to approach and landing. In other words, it can't follow the instructions given by native ATC in terms of vectoring and landing; it handles it differently apparently. I'm not sure whether it has the same issues with other ATC addons. Another question. Can FSX Pilot handle SIDs and STARs correctly? What about VOR to VOR navigation?
