RWC Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 Hi friends, * returning from a mission and your plane is barely holding itself in the air trying to make it back to base. A straight in priority approach would save you, but the traffic pattern is full and the tower tells you to enter the holding pattern because there is no request for a emergency landing, which puts you as nr.1 to land. Instead it tells you to go around. So in short : A option in the ATC menu ' Request emergency landing ' would be so helpful and activating a script that puts all inbound/surrounding traffic on go around or hold. I'm sure many pilots are out there trying to make it back in one peace while struggling holding there plane in the air upon return. Might be a helpful addon or is there another option to make this work ? Kind regards, RWC 2
MAXsenna Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 Hopefully we'll see this in the new upcoming ATC. 2

AFAIK, you're only ever told to go around when someone is on the runway. Sadly, there is no pattern to speak of. IIRC, if you declare an emergency, the airspace closes, everyone not on final is told to divert or hold outside of controlled air space until the emergency is over. We kind of already have that - no traffic to speak of. Edited January 13, 2022 by cfrag 3
