Airport currently IFR - MikeMoore - 30-05-2006

When flying VFR from Helsinki to St Petersburg. I wasn't allowed to land at St Petersburg, because it was currently IFR.
I did however specify a st Petersburg as desitnation airport in FsP. I normally had to land elsewhere and get the penalty for not landing
and the destination airport. Now I picked a runway with ILS and landed normally, but how can I devert to another airport without getting the
penalty?

Go to FSP menu and Cancel destination Smile

You can open an IFR flight plan while airborne as well, and still land IFR at your originally planned airport. You'll have to create a flight plan "on
the fly" though.

Another cheat, open your radio stack and press the active / standby switch button for the COM 1 radio to un-tune ATC, then just carry on
with your approach as normal but in glorious silence! FSP doesn't mind at all Wink

I also do it sometimes when they say go-around but I don't have the time for it Smile

I have had several instances when the destination tower cleared me to land after an ILS approach, and just as I was at the threshold,
tower advised me to go around because of an aircraft taxiing across the runway at the departure end or at mid field. I always land and
then get a ground hand off. In other words, I ignore the go around instructions, turn off at the first taxiway available and then get ATC
instruction to contact ground. Funny how that works Wonder

Hmmm Im curious, how does FSP handle go around- missed aproaches?
