Shortly after takeoff I had engine failure in all four engines. I radioed in and said I had engine failure and needed to return to the airport. At the time Jomo was my air traffic controller. He replied "(call sign) theres plenty of woods to land in." I was absolutely bewildered. I simply said " Really?" He said " What do expect me to do" I replied " I expect you to react properly and guide me safely back to the airport or the nearest airport to me." Sounds like a pretty reasonable expectation right? I then crashed into a hillside about 5-10 miles from EDDF. HE THEN SAID: " (call sign) you are no longer allowed at EDDF fly out of (names nearby airport) from now on!" First of all I don't think I was being very rude. Second of all IM NOT ALLOWED?!?!?! are you kidding me?
Anyone wanna weigh in on this?

If you're trying to keep it real then, whether or not you get help from ATC, planning for alternate landings in an emergency is your responsibility; with five miles glide maybe a 180 to return was not such a good idea and you should have been declaring a Miracle on the Rhine anyway. Probably doing ATC for a bunch of simmers is like trying to herd cats and is tough enough; you might want to cut them all some slack and pre-arrange if you want to practise pan pan events in company. Best.
