Jim Martin 1146730 Posted March 6, 2010 at 12:20 AM Posted March 6, 2010 at 12:20 AM Hello to all...I'm a new VATSIM member (joined early today), and have selected North America/USA as my region. Since I live in northern Indiana, I really would like to join the folks at KZID(KIND), but I notice that when I try to log on to their web site with my CID and PWD, it doesn't recognize me. Does it take a while for me to get into the VATSIM system, so that other regions can recognize me? As I get closer to retirement, I'm really looking forward to spending a lot of time as a controller on VATSIM, and I look forward to the challenges, and the ability to move up the ranks as my knowledge increases... Thanks to anyone who replies.. Jim Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryan Wollenberg 810243 Posted March 6, 2010 at 12:29 AM Posted March 6, 2010 at 12:29 AM Hi Jim and welcome to VATSIM!! The VATUSA Website/Database updates around twice daily, so it could take anywhere from 12-24 hours for your information to appear in the VATUSA database. As soon as it does, visit http://www.vatusa.net/join.php and it will guide you through all the necessary steps for becoming a controller. Welcome again! Bryan Wollenberg ZLA!
