I have a new livery for the B737 which is in my company colours. Flying on VATSIM when filing a flight plan I have to use the ICAO prefix, but my question is, what happens if this is a charter and I do not have a ICAO identifier. How can I fly under a charter callsign of my choosing?

I would suggest a read of the Pilot Resource Center, which has information on choosing a callsign. https://www.vatsim.net/pilot-resource-centre/general-lessons/choosing-callsign

 

Essentially, you can fly it under whatever callsign you want, typically a private charter or off-schedule flight will use the registration number in the US.

In addition, the livery you see yourself as may or may not be anything like the livery that other pilots see you as. Their own pilot client decides how to represent you based on your aircraft type and callsign.

 

Don't worry too much about how others see you; just make sure you enter accurate data for yourself when you connect.

Cheers,
