Step 2 - Develop your Flight Plan
Develop your flight plan using any of the supported flight planners listed in the requirements section of this manual. Please note that none of these planners are JDTLLC programs so we do not provide technical support for them. Once you have completed your flight plan you should save it, and use that program‟s export option and export your flight plan to FS. If you need help, contact the author for assistance or log on to our support forum at www.avsim.com. There are always several RC vets there, eager to answer your questions.
Step 3 - Load the Flight Plan into Radar Contact
You have filed your flight plan and it is now time to load it into Radar Contact. Start MS Flight Simulator and load weather if you want. Next, load your flight plan into the FS2004 or FSX flight planner. Start Radar Contact by clicking on the RC icon on the Start menu. The first button to click is either one of the two on top: normally you would use the one marked with FS200x (*.pln). If this is your first use of Radar Contact, browse to the directory where your flight plans are saved. RC remembers the path to this directory, so you have to browse only this first time. Pick the flight plan you prepared.

The other button on top, the one marked Legacy RC APL (*.apl) is meant for those people who had prepared flights for use by earlier versions of Radar Contact. If you have saved those flights and wish to re-fly them with the new version, you can browse to the directory that contains the APL files. We strongly recommend that you use the .pln file format. After you have picked a flight plan by either of the methods described above, you will see the plan being loaded into RC through a status bar. The textbox to the right of the flight plan buttons describe at what altitude the flight is to be flown and the waypoints that the plan contains. Do not worry about this information; this will be available to you when you are flying. The screen now looks like the following:
Step 4 - Set Radar Contact Options
Next, click the button marked „Controller Info‟. The grey column describes the different ATC-services; the subsequent pink, green, orange, yellow, and blue columns give you the respective frequencies. The name of the pink column is your field of departure, the green column gives the Center frequency, and the orange column is your destination. For our first flight, do not change any of the displayed information. You may want to verify that the cruise altitude under the Center column is correct as well as verify or set your transition level (Trans Lev).

Now is a good time to discuss one of the enhancements incorporated in RCv4. The earlier version had an options box titled “Flexible Dep Proc”. In RCv4, this has been replaced by a “Dep Procedures” menu providing three alternatives - No Altitude Rest, Alt Restrictions, and No Dep Proc. There is also a box for No Speed Restrictions. These are discussed in detail later in the document. However, for users of previous versions, “Alt Restrictions” is equivalent to the old “Flexible Dep Proc” option. What is a “Flexible Dep Proc”? A „Flexible Departure Procedure‟ means that you will not have to integrate the DP within your flight plan, but you are free to go where you want as long as you are within a 30 nm radius from the airport. That is perfect for those occasions when you do not know beforehand whether you need to fly a DP or not, or wish to join an outbound radial. File your plan, wait to see which runway you are assigned, and use a DP as necessary. Click the OK button, which returns you to the main screen. You are ready for the next stage of your flight preparation. On the main screen, under the Radar Contact Options section, click the “General” tab. The following screen will appear.

There are several enhancements incorporated into RCv4 that are available on this screen as well. Radar Contact Version 3 had three sliders - Traffic V‟s (vectors), Chatter, and Holding. In Version 4 users are now presented with a checkbox for AI Chatter and for Pre-Recorded Chatter. RCv4 will check this chatter setting in Flight Simulator and insert the communications generated by either the embedded AI of Flight Simulator or add-on AI such as Ultimate Traffic. Enhanced Pre-Recorded Chatter is also available to further the immersion experience while flying. In addition, when ATC needs to get through, the background chatter is relegated to a lower priority so you do not miss communications from ATC. Holding has shifted from a slider to a three-option box; Off, Weather, and On. Since you are most likely to be held due to weather this is the most realistic box to check. If you do not want holding patterns, check OFF. Under the “Plane Data” section of this screen, you can pick the airline you are flying with from the drop-down box and enter the call sign you would like to be called. When selecting your call sign, note that a space between the numbers defines how they are spoken. For example, 6 6 3 would be spoken as six, six, three. If you entered 6 63, it would be voiced as six, sixty-three. Be sure to pick the type of plane you are flying with: heavy, jet, turbo prop, or prop. Make your selections now. The “Deviations” section includes options for setting your heading, altitude, and speed variation that ATC will allow before issuing you a warning. It is suggested that you leave the defaults as set, at least initially.
