Reviving a topic from the dead has a certain spiritual vibe to it. -
Audio Reception Periodically Stops on the Controller Side
Josh Glottmann replied to Howard Snider's topic in Windows
I've experienced this on the ATC side as well. Don't know how to reproduce it as it happens randomly. -
Dana, has this ever worked? To my knowledge, I don't think simulators broadcast traffic information to your local network (which ForeFlight receives information from)

What happens if you 1) clear the form 2) delete your cookies 3) erase your autofill 4) try again?

Logan, see if this article may help at all.

Controller saying my weather is wrong.
Josh Glottmann replied to Danice Schramm's topic in Pilot Talk
Danice, on top of what Dace mentioned, when you're unsure of why you're doing something or are concerned, you should question the controller. When you initially took off and made some negative comments how you were being vectored into an obstacle, you should have questioned that. You would have, in that case, found that there was no obstacle since you were well above the minimum vectoring altitude. When you were getting vectored on the downwind, you could have asked for a shorter approach. In the case of MHR, there is terrain which prevents you from being descended below certain altitudes depe -

In the US at least, per AIM 4-1-20 (3): This may vary facility to facility. Some will issue a transponder code on the ground, others may choose to simulate how the specific real-world Class D operates. I'd say go ahead and ask on the ground if you want it. If a controller is working top-down, knowing you want flight following ahead of time will probably be helpful. -
Spawning at ramp before connecting to VATSIM.
Josh Glottmann replied to Danny Schaye's topic in General
The simple answer, 95% of the time it will not be an issue. One day you may get unlucky or there happens to be a busy event, but then you just disconnect, move, and reconnect. -
Wowzah. Props to the crew at ZOA for staffing furiously!

You're correct on both! -
Yeah, Oakland does not have any pilot training. More than welcome to fly in the airspace, but joining ZOA will only provide you with training to become an Air Traffic Controller.

I think there was some confusion, ARTCCs provide training for ATC. Some have pilot training programs, but those are usually self-guided. What you're looking for is an ATO - I recommend VATSTAR.

Mark, with the extremely close times happening right now and this possible error, would a +- 15 minute window be permitted for consistency in choosing the winner(s)?
