The co-pilot cannot control the airspeed. You will have to do that by yourself. That is particularly important in the transition phase from knots to mach. If on your climb you maintain for instance 290 knots IAS, you run the risk of over speeding when you are getting upwards from FL 280 or thereabouts. You will have to set the appropriate mach-speed yourself. IMPORTANT NOTE - Your co-pilot will not accept the plane controls, until you are on Departure control‟s frequency. Until you are on Departure‟s frequency, you are driving. Likewise, when descending, the copilot does not change setting from mach to knots IAS. Do that yourself. Remember to maintain 250 knots or less under 10,000 feet. The copilot does not set flaps, lower gear, or land the plane. These are all things you have to do yourself. Also, beware that he will hand the controls back to you when on final. A special word on NOTAMs: When NOTAMs are on the copilot will not turn on course from a departure airport until you have advised the controller you can proceed on course. Likewise, when you have filed NOTAMs for arrival, at a certain moment the copilot will hand the controls back to you, Pilot in Command (PIC). Be prepared for this, because if you do not pay attention, the plane will fly in heading and at an altitude that was last set by the copilot. It is easy to forget when you have turned NOTAMs on. Suppose you have missed your approach at your destination, where you would have turned NOTAMs on, and you decide to head out to your alternate. NOTAMs are still valid at this new stage of flight, but this time they are departure NOTAMs, not arrival NOTAMs. Suppose you have to go to your alternate, where you put NOTAMs. If you did not put them at your regular destination, it is easy to forget that the copilot cannot fly.

Adding your own Chatter to Radar Contact
By Bob Johnson Let‟s review how Radar Contact knows where you are in the virtual world. In the Radar Contact main folder is a file called Airspace. The Airspace file contains over 400 coded regions, which are defined “named, geographic boundaries”, which match as close as possible to real world ATC worldwide control regions. For example, Denver Center in the western United States is in Airspace region number 309. Whenever a MSFS plane flies into region 309, it will come under the control of Denver Center. The language set that Radar Contact uses is determined by another Radar Contact folder called Winwood. The Winwood folder has sub-folders that contain all controllers and pre-recorded pilot voices or wavs. In addition, the Winwood folder has 400 matching named geographic regions that are in the Airspace file, plus 35 “country” sub-folders. Let‟s take a closer look at the Winwood folder. The Winwood folder contains 3 types of directories, which are contained in sub-folders numbered as follows:
\0-\99 sub-folders are reserved for radar contact pilots and controllers
\100-\399 sub-folders are reserved for geographic center specific chatter files
\usa, \Germany, etc country folders are for country specific chatter files, when the country contains more than one ATC center
Most of the geographic regions and country folders have no pre-recorded ATC chatter files. Radar Contact uses program generated synthetic ATC chatter. However, some of the country folders do contain pre-recorded language specific wavs. Radar Contact‟s general rule is: If a geographic folder has NO canned chatter instruction, then synthetic chatter will be used. If a geographic region has an instruction to use country canned chatter then it will be used in lieu of synthetic chatter. If a geographic region has its own chatter installed, then it will be used rather than the country instruction. Let‟s take a closer look at one of these “country” folders, and its “canned” chatter format. The USA folder, for example, contains 8 sub folders in alphabetical order; APP (approach), ATC1 (enroute center low), ATC2 (enroute center medium), ATC3 (enroute center high), CD (clearance delivery), DEP (departure), GND, (ground) AND TWR (tower). All of the USA sub-folders have pre-recorded wavs that are named with their sub-folder name and number. For example, the APP folder has wavs in it named app1 through app100 and so on; the CD folder has wavs named cd1-cd20, etc. We will discuss the wavs in these folders and how to alter or add to them a little later.
In previous versions of Radar Contact, each boundary region had its own pre-recorded canned chatter wavs. This approach was very effective but NOT efficient. This approach required

duplicate wavs for each region and required huge amounts of hard disk drive space. Radar Contact uses a more efficient programming scheme for storing canned chatter wavs. Using the example of the virtual plane flying over Denver Center, this is how Radar Contact uses these folders. Open the Winwood folder and sub-folder 309, which is the Denver ARTCC (Air Route Traffic Control Center). The structure of folder 309 is very similar to the USA folder; however, there are NO canned chatter wavs in any of the sub-folders. Instead there is a “pointer” text file called $usa. This file directs Radar Contact to use the canned chatter found in the Winwood/USA folder. This same routine is used for all the regions of the USA. Likewise, sitting on the tarmac at Frankfurt/Main (EDDF) Germany, Radar Contact would use the same instructions found in Winwood Frankfurt FIR Germany folder 113. Folder 113 has the pointer file $Germany text file that points to the Winwood/German “country” folder, which contains German accented pre-recorded chatter. Users of Radar Contact now have the capability to add their own “canned” chatter from many sources. There are many chatter files stored on the Internet. For example, AVSIM.com and Flightsim.com both have chatter files in several languages in their Flight Simulator “Sound” libraries. In addition, many virtual pilots have used radio scanners to record actual ATC transmissions. As long as the chatter is recorded in the .wav format, users can add it to any Winwood geographic or country folder. Here are the procedures to be used for adding wavs to a folder. After obtaining chatter wavs, it should be determined what category the wavs falls into, clearance delivery, ground, tower, departure, approach, or enroute center. Once the wav files are separated, they may be placed in the appropriate folder of EITHER OR BOTH of the “country” folder or a specific geographic region folder in the Winwood folder. Let‟s review in detail how this is done. If you want to add geographic center specific chatter, go to that geographic center region (example region 248 Singapore):
