Hi all, Im just starting with VATsim and trying to pass the orientation test but it says click link to go to the exam centre but no exams assigned. I have seen the message saying the timer in the top right corner has to expire before I can take the test but I cant see the timer either. Am I doing something wrong. I hate being at Newb status but Im stuck :)

Many thanks

Paul -- are you certain you need the test?  Your VATSIM ID is 1088955 -- older than mine, and mine is over 10 years old.  Only people who joined since about mid-August of this year need to pass the P0 before they may fly on the network.  In fact, when looking your ID up on stats.vatsim.net, it already shows you having been awarded the P0, as it does for all those whose IDs already existed when the test was implemented a few months ago.

On the other hand, if you want to take the test just for your own enrichment, may I suggest a VATSIM ATO instead?  https://my.vatsim.net/pilots/atos

Cheers,

Ah ok I didnt know that.  I registered last week or tried to and it said I already did 12 years ago ! Just  saw it say all members need to do it but as you say maybe I did it back in the day. I appreciate you taking the time to help me 🙂

You didn't do it back in the day.  The requirement has only existed for the last 4 months.  But since your ID pre-dates that, you've been exempted.

Cheers,
