I'm getting a bit annoyed with a bug in ATC.
When I call for permission to land, it's granted.  Then, when I'm on final approach, with everything out, I get "Go around. Runway occupied".

This has happened, as far as I can remember, EVERY time I've called ATC about landing.

Why is it giving permission to land, then not holding short departing aircraft?

Then, If I land anyway, it STILL doesn't hold the other's takeoff, and there's a crash...

ATC in DCS is, lets say, not up to par with DCS in general, to put it mildly.
But as far as i understand, there are great plans to completely rebuild the ATC, so until then, ignore ATC, its often useless.

When approaching to land or is in vicinity of a airfield, ONLY rely on Mk 1 eyeball, NEVER wait for a landing permission, because the ATC is sitting in a dark windowless room with the eyesight of a blind bat, in a bag.
From my engines spool up to they reach 0 RPM i always move and fly with my head on a swivel, ignoring ATC close to as much as possible.

I have a vision of Blackadder saying this. 🤣

 

I did an experiment today.
I watched the end of the runway with the TGP and visual.  The "occupier" of the runway magically appeared at the end of the runway as I approached!

LOL exactly Lord Slackbladder, sorry, Blackadder 🤣
I believe its one of the WW1 episodes.

"The "occupier" of the runway magically appeared at the end of the runway as I approached!"
"Dont worry My Lord, i have a cunning plan."
"I’ve got a plan so cunning you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel.
