Hi Paul,

for flightgear dbus isnt used.

Did you try another vatsim Server?

One addition Reguarding Route clearance: ATC will advise re routings when your route is correct but doesnt match procedures. For example when departing from EDDF some combination of SID and airways after a SID are prohibited even if they look OK.

That's what I thought.
My thinking is either it works or it doesn't.

I have tried different servers, the one last night was the local one from Canada but like I mentioned I got disconnected.

I wanted to fly out of EDDF today to somewhere where there is no ATC in case I get disconnected again, well,,,,, after logging in as observer and listening for a while my head started spinning and I said to myself, not today, I know the airport pretty good but oh my dear, that was a lot of traffic. One thing I noticed is they use L taxi way more then I'm used to.

Anyway I'll keep looking for answers and keep flying!!!

Hi all -- I'm trying to get Swift working with FG 2018.3.5, but I'm not seeing the added menu option that's supposed to show up under "multiplayer". I ensured that I checked the FlightGear driver install when setting up swift, and I see the flightgear dll files in the swift directory after I install it, and I've restarted both -- but still no menu option. Am I missing any steps?

If I'm not mistaken, swift is only supported with FG2020.x and up. You can download a development version here.
