Today we revisit KBNA for a busy afternoon shift. Enjoy and thanks for watching! Friends of the Channel: Bill Thornton / @billthornton2852 TP Gaming / @tpgamingatc
Gate 4 - another gift - this time a command to a departing aircraft already aloft to fly a heading prior to giving Contact Departure. In the world of Hi Octane Stimulus Seeking Simulation these slices of Reality Pie are great. I'm going to try one with 'turn R/L xx degrees'. This was recently re-fixed in the game.
FYI you've become a You Tube Advert Magnet. That's a good thing! At 46m0s Game time he says 'as you can see we've got a lot going on here'. But once again, because you housekeep your tags it is far easier to understand what's going on. Nice blend of Tower & Field - that's like Field & Stream. But, some questions. Separate Gate for each one 😊.
Yeah, I was actually just reviewing one of my episodes and I was surprised at all the ads. I guess YT is making money off of me. From my understanding I have to have 1000 subs and a bunch of hours watched, don't remember the exact number, to make some pennies. Anyway, KBNA is one of my favorites to control. So glad you are enjoying these. I try to put thought into the production of these episodes as best as possible on the fly for the viewers since I rarely have an edit in these. It's not perfect, but folks seem to enjoy it and it keeps me on my toes managing the tower and the views. 🤪
@@realgenxgamer FYI I'm just coming back now to see that THIS was supposed to be the first Comment in the 'lineup' followed by the Gate Questions. Good thing YT doesn't control traffic like us guys. ADDENDUM UPDATE - Duh. Someone (couldn't have been me 🤣) changed the sort order for the Comments. Now that's "fixed" everyone's lined up to roll.
Gate 2 - Back in #17 the Taxiway instructions to Rwy 20R were far more complex. Did you just find that much detail wasn't needed and therefore simplified? I wondered if the more detailed instructions were meant to avoid the "more logical routing" nonsense, but I know that's also been addressed by upgrade activity that's come out since this video was made.
Sometimes, I personally just like to change it up a bit. So that is what I did. Just to try other ways of doing it. As long as it makes since to do so.
@@realgenxgamer And it will be helpful for anyone new to the game who finds themselves working thru this good stuff and seeing different ways to go about it.
Gate 1 - In Episode #17 everything was 'Contact Nashville Departure'. My understanding is that Simple Departure in the Settings means there's no requirement to include the frequency, but that doesn't influence the 'Nashville' part. So did you go into the guts of the frequency.csv file to drop the Nashville part?
@@realgenxgamer That's interesting. There was a lot of sadness on Discord when KSFO ( I think) came out as one of the early ones that required "SoCal Departure". Players were wondering how to get rid of the SoCal part - that's where I got the idea from. Again, maybe something happened in an upgrade and it's no longer an issue.
Gate 3 - UPS3691 vs. GTI3486 - and the winner is...? 3486 went off Rwy 20R in Episode #17 (at 23m30s), whereas 3691 needed Rwy 13. For sure 20R, at 8,000' is no comparison to 13 at 11,000', but I'm trying to figure out how two similar sized(?) aircraft could manage on shorter/longer runways. The roll for 3691 suggests all 11,000' was needed. Sub-question: did anything specific make you send UPS off on 13 as opposed to the closer to Cargo 31?
Nothing in particular. I probably thought 13 was closer for some reason. LOL These timestamps help because I wouldn't otherwise remember anything. 🤣 I actually took some time and watched part of this episode. I think I did this one 6 months ago or so.
