Using vERAM to work top down at my facility is a difficult pain in the ass that even the nerdiest and most seasoned among us avoid doing. It is not well suited to terminal operations, though it can be done. Otherwise Dhruv mentioned how much more clearly information is provided.
If, and it’s a big if, you have enough screen real-estate to run a few windows, it gets a lot easier.
One thing i have noticed.... Is the text ATIS and the Verbal ATIS from airports is usually different. The written could be info V and the verbal is saying INFO C... Has anyone addressed this on X Plane?
Thanks

look at those websites' satillette maps showing live action of planes' movements toward runways.
I really appreciate all of the responses, truly.
That said, as a newb who hasn't been in a real cockpit for 15 years--there's a lot of stuff thrown into those answers that have me suffering from a touch of information overload. So, let me ask this a little differently.
1. How do I keep from angering the ATC and other pilots when I'm flying out of/in to places, considering I'm using vanilla FSX:SE, with respect to IFR Flight Plans? (Sounds like "/a" is a solid go-to, and just plan through FSX?)
2. I like the idea of a higher-end pay-for plane, but I don't think I can justify that just yet, having just returned. Perhaps in a couple of months. That said, anything particular to look for?
3. I tried installing the stuff from aero.sors.fr, and a couple of things happened. First, got some scenery errors. I worked through those, and loaded up at KMEM (I have a SID printed out for that, so I had a few intersections I could look for). I didn't find any of the intersections. Any way to tell if the install worked, and these simply weren't there, or they're there, but the install failed?
4. With that in mind--did I understand that response correctly? It effectively inserts the newer fixes, intersections, etc?
Thanks a ton. I don't want to wear-out my welcome with the newbie questions, but this feels sort of...well...basal for the whole system.
Per ZME - ZTL LOA all aircraft arriving into ATL or ATL Satellites are to cross the ZME - ZTL boundary AOB FL330. So that would be why.
I'd assume the reason they followed this without an Atlanta Center online is due to the possibility of them signing on. You should always follow LOAs even when the other controller is not online.
At or At or Above? Curious where in Memphis' airspace this took place. In ZLA I'll often issue a PD to 240 for airplanes arriving LAX. Sometimes pilots mishear that as "Descend Now" instead of "Descend Pilot's Discretion."
At or below (AOB). Usually pilots are told to descend at pilots discretion but more times then not they would descend immediately.
