Filip Soderholm 1178721 Posted December 28, 2010 at 12:51 PM Posted December 28, 2010 at 12:51 PM Hi everyone. First off apologies if this is posted in the wrong place. I've been searching and looking but to no avail, so I decided to throw out a question here and see if someone can point me in the right direction. I just heard of vatsim, and I'm interested in learning to be a controller. Naturally, the first thing I did was to register an account and grab one of the client softwares. I went for VRC just because it was at the top of the list. Now what? I've connected to the EUROPE-C2 server from the program as an observer, but the radar image is all blank, and how do I know what frequencies to listen to? I feel like there should be a "quickstart guide" somewhere, but maybe I'm just not looking in the correct place. Any help would be much appreciated!

They will help you with the atc client, and everything. Also you might want to have a look on http://www.vatsim.net/atc/atctraining/ and www.vateud.net at training department section: Good luck Alin FUSARU ROvACC Training Director Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
