It doesn't matter which one you choose, they're all inter-connected. So if someone connects to Europe-CC, they'll still see pilots and controllers connected to other servers like Europe-W, or anything in the US, etc.

 

Most people just choose one that is geographically close to them, to minimize the latency in the connection, but it doesn't matter all that much. You could use a server in the US and you probably wouldn't notice the difference. (Unless you have a very slow internet connection.)

Using high-quality models like the PMDG for model matching is not recommended because of the unnecessary demands it will place on resources required to draw them.

 

If you still intend to use them, you can do so by creating your own model matching rule set (explained in the vPilot docomeentation).

Note that Brad is talking about using the PMDG models to represent OTHER aircraft. Is that what you are talking about, or are you saying you want to fly the PMDG models yourself?

Brrrr, i have seen on YouTube

a Boeing 737-800 with PMDG FMC control, the instructor is using VATSIM / VACC and is talking with ATC. Is this possible with vPilot and PMDG airplanes as well?

Sorry, for me it is some difficult to understand what the problem is...

Yes, you can fly whatever aircraft you want. Model matching is just about how you see OTHER pilots.

vPilot will follow the model matching rule sets you've installed - same as it would for any other aircraft. The model of aircraft a pilot is using isn't transmitted over the network, so vPilot will have no idea whether the pilot is using PMDG vs. iFly vs. default aircraft.
