At this moment I'm flying connected. I can see my icon on VATSPY but not the AC type. I entered BE58/L on the connect screen. The FAA Aircraft type Doc. say I'm a BE58/ L. But it doesn't show up that way on VATSPY. It shows my N number name and altitude.

 

What up with that.

Your aircraft type will only show up if you are filing a flight plan. You should not include the "/L" when signing on. You'll find a drop down list of equiptment codes in the XSB Flight Plan menu. Just log on as a "BE58" and you'll be all set.

Thank You for the reply. Have a thousand more questions. I do try and search the forum to get my own answers but I would like to file and fly while I'm still above ground.
