I follow the flash tutorial all the way to connect to the server and then

only one server shows up. The same one used as an example on the tutorial.

Running Vista. Help greatly appreciated!!

Sounds like FSInn? Check the installation Sticky, paragraph number 3.

FSInn. I will try a few more times and see what I can do. Does your starting location mean anything

to how many servers show up or should all of those servers show up always?

I figured it out. Now, my new problem is I connect, tune to the tower that has a controller in it, and try and listen, (obeserving) but I don't here any atc chatter.

Also, when I start, a couple of airplanes just come and follow me around and sit right on top of me? I'm all ears!

Hi, Bob. You appear to be very overwhelmed with the vastness of VATSIM. My advice for you is to take it kind of easy and sample it. You can do this by following steps provided in two messages.

 

VATSIM Quick Start Guide:

http://www.vatsim.net/pilots/quickstart

 

and

 

FSInn Installation Sticky:

viewtopic.php?f=43&t=20466

 

Please be informed that the FSInn/VATSIM FAQ that is highlighted in bold read in the FSInn Installation sticky is very important. It addresses the issue you bring up about a plane following you, plus other very important things that will relieve issues possible FSInn/VATSIM issues.

 

Try to use the information from the Quick Start Guide, or the FSInn Installation sticky (and linked FAQ) with your followups if you have problems. If you follow this suggestion you should be able to have a rewarding and completely successful session in minutes with live ATC in minutes.

thread/message stuck to the top with special meaning… containing important forum information.

 

For FSInn/VATSIM issues, please test the FSInn Installation sticky and linked FAQ. It really works!
