   I can't figure out how to release an aircraft from a satellite airfield. I'm using the commands as shown in the quick reference card, but the plane won't recognize it.

	example: "N807TV heading 040 climbing to 8000 released" What are you saying and what is the program picking up if you look in the communications window?

	That worked a few times, then I had a case where it wouldn't. Are there two types of departures? I'll play again today and try to have more info.

	Well you have releases from airports with a tower (such as KAEG) for example and you have IFR Clearances to aircrafts on the ground at airports without ATC facilities. An example would be Alexander Airport in KABQ where you would have to say for example "N807TV cleared from Alexander as filed climb and maintain 8000 departing frequency 123.9 squawk 6123" Good luck! :)

	I'm controlling ABQ. I have Baron 4BD at Mid Valley (E98) who is requesting IFR clearance to Lincoln Co. Wow! I finally got it to work. It's quite a mouthful and very specific. TY when.
