Norman Blackburn Posted February 13, 2006 at 08:29 AM Posted February 13, 2006 at 08:29 AM Abishay, Firstly welcome to VATSIM. To fly on VATSIM you need some software to connect. Choices are Squawkbox 3 or fsinn. Both are great pieces of software and come complete with built in voice software. You can fly online straight away - remember to connect at a gate, not on the runway. The Pilot Resource Centre is a great place to help here. As a Controller you will need ASRC. Other radar clients are in the works but this is the only one available just now. At first you will only be able to observe. Each Region is split into Divisions and they have different methods to be able to control. A more detailed set of steps are available from VATSIM's home page. Simply follow the links in the left menu NEW PILOTS START HERE NEW ATC START HERE Norman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norman Blackburn Posted February 14, 2006 at 08:24 AM Posted February 14, 2006 at 08:24 AM Abishay Can you have both Sqwakbox and FSinn together? You can install them both but can only use one at any one time. do both of them come with a voice software or you will need teamspeak for them to use Both have voice software built in although I believe FSInn 1.1 is still undergoing a few issues with either voice or the tuning to a controller. More information may be available at the FSInn forums. Teamspeak isnt used for voice communications on VATSIM. Hope we have ATC's in the African region because thats where i always fly South Africa is open a lot these days with Egypt, Dubai, Dofar and other parts of the continent slowly coming to life.
