Shared cockpit flight on vatsim FSX SE 13 years old

[Rylin Waata 1363339]

Hi guys, im 13 and i want to do Shared cockpit flight with someone and just want to fly with a co-pilot(Or captain if you want).

 

Contact: [email protected]

You should of just put all your info on one post rather than three, anyway I believe shared cockpit cannot be done on FSX default aircraft, you may have to go out and purchase an aircraft that supports shared cockpit operations for example Majestic Dash 8 or the Aerosoft Airbus.

I contradict that. Every single FSX:SE aircraft is compatible with shared cockpit because it as its own multiplayer, and people love to be in aircraft other people are flying. I think it isvery possible, although I am too busy at the moment to even think about flying or controlling on VATSIM .

Hi Marcus,

 

I forgot that you can edit the post so thats why. And is it recomended i use Payware or Freeware Aircraft.

[Thimo Koolen]

Payware is recommended, because most freeware planes can not fly SID/STARs, which is required at a lot of airports for IFR.

[Randy Tyndall 1087023]

Rylin,

 

because most freeware planes can not fly SID/STARs

 

Not exactly true. All freeware equipped with a NAV Radio can fly at least some SIDs (DPs)/STARs if you know how to use the NAV Radio for navigation and intercepting a VOR radial. The RNAV ones are a little more complicated to fly with a freeware, but with a little advanced preparation and a nav database update even they are flyable with freeware.

 

which is required at a lot of airports for IFR.

 

Again, not entirely true, especially on VATSIM. DPs/STARs are not required for any airports on VATSIM. You merely put "No SIDs/STARs" in the comment section of your flightplan and request vectors...even for IFR.

 

Just wanted to clarify this so you didn't come to this fantastic simulated environment thinking you had to buy a payware aircraft to "play".

Thimo, too many generalizations and shows your inexperience so far with aviation in general, not just VATSIM. cant blame ya for that one, too many VATSIM users are too reliant on automation to fly the plane for them instead of actually learning to fly early on. IFR has zero to do with FMC's for example, nor do SID's/STAR's.

 

payware is also not required at all on the network, this is false information that often gets p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ed around the network. not one docomeent on VATSIM will tell you that you need payware

[Sean Harrison]

Very default and freeware aircraft could simply add the ISG FMC, or use FSC as the FMC.

 

Don't believe you can't do SID/STARs without a payware aircraft. I've even used FSC for military AAR tracks on freeware aircraft.

[Bradley Grafelman]

Even the default/built-in Garmin GPS in FSX can be used to fly SIDs/STARs - including RNAV ones. That's [Mod - Happy Thoughts]uming, of course, that you've updated the sim's navdata (freeware sites like this one make that pretty easy).

 

Sure, it doesn't offer the workload reduction a full FMC would, but it's possible. It can even be fun if you're on a particularly convoluted SID/STAR and you enjoy a challenge.

SID/STARs, which is required at a lot of airports for IFR.

 

I wonder how we managed to fly on the network before Level D and PMDG came out with their fancy aircraft.

With the SB2.2 FMS?

FS Navigator

I suspect (and this is going to make me feel really old) that at 13 the excellent FSNavigator may be somewhat before your time. Suffice to say, it was one of the essential pieces of software for any discerning virtual pilot and incorporated a number of features that we take for granted these days -- flight planning via airways, automatic lateral navigation, a moving-map display, an updateable navigation database including SIDs and STARs, automatically-generated airport charts, display of multiplayer traffic and many more things.

 

My first piece of navigation software was David Drouin's GPS 2.0 for FS98. No moving map, and I seem to recall it had a route length limitation of perhaps 10 waypoints, so if your route was longer than that you would have to keep re-programming the in flight, rather similar to many of the old INS systems. You also had to press the "next waypoint" button as you approached each waypoint, otherwise it had a tendency to send you round in circles -- so no taking off, pointing the aeroplane at the other side of the world and going to bed, you actually had to fly the thing.

 

Not to mention that you had to position yourself for an approach at the other end, generally using raw data -- no magenta line to follow all the way down to ILS capture. And did I mention that autoland didn't exist either?

 

Those were the days!

I flew this combination on Satco many a day, back when Ansett Australia and Qantas both used to use the Registration of the aircraft as their callsign for domestic routes.

I remember my first "big Satpac event" Sydney 2000 olympic flyin in September 2000 flying VH-RMK, Ansett 767-200 from Sydney to Brisbane. We had a real world female ATC (Who I think worked at Williamtown IRL?) run, by memory, SY_DEP that day.

Satco that was a long time ago. I remember that the only way for me to connect to the internet to fly was using my Nokia 7110 as a modem and using mobile data which cost me around £170 ($ 220 US dollars) a month. no headset just a cheap desktop stand-up microphone and one of my first flights was using 2D cockpit British Airways Dash 8-300 back in the day when BA used Dash 8-300s lol, oh and using FS-Navigator.
