Yeah there is another post about this. Michal said its going to change eventually to were you can do KC_CTR. It seems the rest of the world uses the full ICAO code, so thats why it was like that on release.

Correct. What is the ICAO code for the airport you call Kansas City (i.e. in KC_APP)? I understand KC_CTR is KZKC_CTR, but how do I decode KC_APP?

KMCI is the ICAO for Kansas City from Memory.

I see. I didn't forsee that KC could mean sometimes KZKC and sometimes KMCI . OK, more time needed to fix this confusion...

I was able to get vroute to except MCI_APP but we do not use that as our callsign we actually log on as KC_APP. I guess it does not matter as long as it reconizes Kansas City Approach...

If I look at the map (AIRAC 0608), KTPA is apparently on the KZJX side of the border. Is this some sort of an exception?

You should be able to add KC_CTR, KC_APP and similar position to the booking list and to book these ATC positions in vroute. Please let me know if you encounter any problems.

According to our current Letters of Agreement with KZJX, TPA is ours and MCO is theirs. Here's the link:

Edit: Also, here's the Operating Procedures stating our Center information: http://www.zmaartcc.org/[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ets/files/CTR.pdf

 

While i fully respect your right to make such statements in LOAs, please keep in mind that not everything is so easy to implement. In this case, KTPA falls in KZJX airspace and I could only move it to KZMA by manually editing the FIR boundaries so that KTPA would fall in a different FIR.
