Just flew a route from YSCB to YSSY and repeatedly am being assigned to contact Christchurch Center. This occurs near AKMIR and clears again once near BOARE.

I have retested after removing FlyTampa’s Sydney Airport, re-flew same issue, removed Navigraph from the sim and this restored the correct assignment being Melbourne Center.

I also experienced a similar condition flying YSSY-NZAA where Melbourne Center was assigned. Given I was a 1000+KM’s from the FIR boundary looks like an error in the data.

Hi Richard,

I can confirm the issue YSCB - YSSY @ AKMIR is fixed, just flew the route with the updated data. Will be a few days before i can re-fly the YSSY-NZAA flight and will advise on that part of the issue.

Regards

BvB

Thank you and the team for their quick response.
