Yes, SayIntentions now supports oceanic air traffic control coverage. This recent update enhances the realism for pilots flying international routes across oceans in Microsoft Flight Simulator. Here’s how it works:
Oceanic Center Frequencies: SayIntentions uses two designated VHF frequencies for oceanic communication:
- Primary Frequency: 119.565
- Secondary Frequency: 132.335
These frequencies are used in place of the traditional HF radio communications, which are not fully supported in the simulator. Pilots can switch between these frequencies to maintain communication, adapting to varying conditions, much like real-life ATC operations.
Functionality: To access the Oceanic Centers, simply tune into the primary frequency while flying over the ocean. If there are issues with communication, switch to the secondary frequency. This ensures continuous guidance and support during long-haul flights over oceanic regions.
Future Enhancements: SayIntentions plans to introduce specific oceanic sectors to further enhance realism. Additionally, they are exploring partnerships with major aircraft developers like Fenix and PMDG to integrate more advanced functionalities into the platform.
This addition significantly improves the overall flight simulation experience, especially for those flying transoceanic routes, by providing more realistic and dynamic ATC coverage.
