Lee Collier 892337 Posted December 20, 2004 at 09:13 PM Posted December 20, 2004 at 09:13 PM ServerInfo asks for nothing, And You Choose your callsign; i.e. BAW245 - Would Be Speedbird245, And UAL245 Would Be United245 Lee Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Cummings 918473 Posted December 20, 2004 at 09:19 PM Author Posted December 20, 2004 at 09:19 PM Lee, how do i choose my callsign?? do i just make one up?? THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Collier 892337 Posted December 20, 2004 at 09:23 PM Posted December 20, 2004 at 09:23 PM 'spose the easiest way is to Open ServInfo, Load The vatsim Data, Click Pilots, then look at all those lovely callsigns, Click on each one and a window opens, at the top of the new window, there's the callsign info, Find one you like, Change the NUmbers and Vwalah! One shiny new callsign for you to use Lee Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Collier 892337 Posted December 20, 2004 at 09:33 PM Posted December 20, 2004 at 09:33 PM Right, you like BAW049.... But someone else is Using BAW049 (note that he doesnt own that callsign, when someones not using a callsign, anyone else can use it) so make it BAW050 or BAW012 for example, PS the Spoken for BAW is Speedbird Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norman Blackburn Posted December 20, 2004 at 09:59 PM Posted December 20, 2004 at 09:59 PM Sam, Whatever callsign you so choose must be the exact same in both AVC and SB. No exceptions. Aside from that there are very few restrictions on callsigns. There is a list somewhere but in short, no 9/11 callsigns or others used in hijackings or other incidents.

Richard Critz Posted December 20, 2004 at 10:07 PM Posted December 20, 2004 at 10:07 PM Ok, Sam, you've been helped. Several times. If you aren't willing to spend an hour or two reading and understanding the PRC docomeents that you got in your all-in-one download, your virtual aviation career is going to be very short. Instant gratification is not available here. It requires some effort on your part, some study on your part, and some more effort on your part. You seem to want to connect and observe. If you're going to do that, you must be connected to the network as a pilot or a controller before you can listen to what is going on. The instructions for how to do it as a pilot are contained in the modules of the PRC, all of which are present as PDF files in the all-in-one download. Please go find ALL of appropriate ones and work your way through them. Clearly, you have not yet done so. When you have made a legitimate effort at it, then come back for [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance if you still need it. Please do not start another post until then.
