When I fly an ifr flight or a vfr flight and I start communicating with the ATC, after a while they tell me to land at a certain runway (In this case at Calgary Intl- Runway 34) I dont want to land at this runway
My Airplane =
Runway number= 34 or 16
----- = the actual runway.
-->-->-->-->= my direction of travel
-->-->-->-->-->--> 16---------34
The ATC tells me to land at runway 34. It would be a lot easier for me to land at runway 16 wouldn't it? Sometime in an IFR flight the ATC menu says: Select different approach. So I tried that and selecte ILS 16. I made the request to the ATC and they told me to make the approach to runway 16 and then circle to land at runway 34. |

No you cant if you are using real weather updates.
-->-->-->-->16-----------34 if the wind is blowing closer to the way 16 is then you will land on 34 because you need to land in the closer direction into the wind. |
