Hello pilot,
One thing the simulator lacks in order to really work on radio communication is the management of AFIS agents.
Indeed, on MFS2020 AFIS agents are not implemented.
On aerodromes, AFIS agents present in real life on many aerodromes on French territory are not presents on MFS2020. The aerodromes are therefore in self-information. This is why TBLFScenery decided to develop Agent AFIS VFR.
What is an AFIS officer?
« Aerodrome Flight Information Service or Airport Flight Information Service (AFIS) is a type of air traffic organization, providing flight information and alert services at aerodromes.
AFIS provides the following services:
- It provides the information and alert service;
- It provides information on the presence of aircraft of which it is aware in the vicinity of the aerodrome, in aerodrome traffic (runway circuit, circuit entrances and apron) and on the maneuvering areas;
- It provides the meteorological information at its disposal (wind, visibility, temperature, QNH, QFE and the exact time) and information on aerodrome conditions (runway in use);
- It assists pilots in preventing collisions between aircraft, vehicles and any other obstacle.
Contrary to a control service, the AFIS cannot give any instructions, authorizations or prohibitions to a pilot. In particular, he cannot authorize the take-off or landing of an aircraft. In order to limit the responsibility of the AFIS, it is generally content to respond to requests explicitly formulated by the pilots. In particular, it is not its responsibility to remind the rule of an offending aircraft.»
AFIS VFR Agent interfaces with MFS2020 and acts as an AFIS Agent.
This addon works in voice recognition. It detects your diction, and responds to you using a sound library of over 500 samples. It will be able to follow you during an integration, give you the parameters, the runway in use, the traffic density, ask you to leave the frequency...
As opposed to other addons, the recorded voice is a real voice, which pushes the immersion even further!
Important : This Addon work only in French language and only in France country.
Works with MSFS2020 only
Just download the file and follow the instruction in the user guide. It works as a separate software.
Voice recognition is still a fresh new technology. for starter, we encourage you to speak clearly and at a normal speed.
