Semir Gebran Posted April 21, 2010 at 05:25 PM Posted April 21, 2010 at 05:25 PM I have found a post on the forum from 2009 about a "VATSIM Syria in the works" but as i checked vatme.net I did not find any information or links to it, so whatever happened to the announced Syrian area? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semir Gebran Posted April 23, 2010 at 08:25 PM Author Posted April 23, 2010 at 08:25 PM Thanks for your help. I am myself a new member to VATSIM but would have interest in this particular VACC and would like to [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ist if need be.

Matt Booker Posted April 24, 2010 at 10:47 AM Posted April 24, 2010 at 10:47 AM Syria is under the Damascus FIR (OSTT) and belongs to the VATSIM Middle East Division Matt BookerVATSIM Supervisor | Team 2 Lead[email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semir Gebran Posted April 24, 2010 at 05:23 PM Author Posted April 24, 2010 at 05:23 PM I have never seen it controlled for the duration of my membership ( a few weeks ) What does it take to make it active? a controller willing to work that area?

Semir Gebran Posted April 24, 2010 at 06:44 PM Author Posted April 24, 2010 at 06:44 PM That's correct! If you're interested email our Division Director director(at)vatme.net I am very much interested, especially that my current region and FIR does not seem to have a problem manning the airspace, which cannot be said for Syria and the middle east ( looking at VATS-SPY and VROUTE ) Does it make sense to contact the Divsion Director? Being new I obviously lack controller training so I will not be able to get down to business, and I would need to change the region first. What would be the best to do? Changing the region to do the training with vatme or training with my current FIR and then switching regions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
