Small problem with F-14 and ground crew interaction (wheel chocks not removeable via VAICOM)

[Jayhawk1971]

Hi,

it seems myself and others have a problem getting the ground crew to remove the wheel chocks on the Tomcat using VAICOM. The feature itself works fine through the F-menu.

Of note: the command itself is being recognized, and acknowledged by the crew chief ("Copy". "Wheel chocks are now removed"). He just doesn't do it.  

Placing the wheel chocks does work with VAICOM, though (getting both acknowledgement and actual placement of the chocks).

I don't know if this is a known problem (Discord is not very research-friendly) or if this is still unreported.

Hey, thanks for that. Yes it’s reported. Something to do with the new chocks logic on the Tomcat I assume. We have taken a bit of a break over the Christmas period from testing and coding. It’s on our list of things to tackle, along with some weird PTT actions on the Viggen, A4 some WWII modules and the KA-50.
