Hello, on aircraft type DR40 (DR400-100/120), when the "avionics master" are OFF, the radio is OFF ingame.

However, it's still connected to the frequency on VatSim unless I turn Battery OFF.

This may impact my parking checklists.

In the sense that when I say "request leaving frequency" (and get cleared), I'm not really leaving until a few minutes later (or seconds?) until I completed my shutdown checklist (check that engine is not shutting down immediatly with magneto OFF then both) while "com off" is the first item after "parking brake ON/radio announce".

It might just be nitpicking 🙂 But it could improve the simulation if vPilot (in that case, forgot to mention) wouldn't overwrite my ingame radio which is OFF (so the frequency couldn't possibly still be valid).
