VA ATIS lettering advice requested
-
Interesting in adding regular ATIS calls to VA commands as part of regular comms on UHF “…with information Hotel…”
Problem is every single letter can be used depending on time of flight. -

Problem is every single letter can be used depending on time of flight.Not sure how this helps but since BMS wouldn’t understand your ATIS calls anyway the only reason to do this would be for good comms, more useful in MP environments. I would go the approach of using / making a VA profile that ignored everything but what is in the comms menu.
I use VA profile from here and it allows you to make calls like:
Kunsan Ground, Falcon1, four ship F-16, request taxi for departure
or in your case:
Kunsan Approach Falcon1 with Information {ATIS ID}, request landing
Only the words in Italics above would be recognized by VA. Everything else is ear candy but it does very well for immersion. I use this all the time and it helps with working on good comms in MP as it allows you to get used to making IRL comm calls (mostly)
