Hi there,

I was told in one streaming session that there're events called "First Wings" for new pilots with ATC especially patient..

Do you know where are those events posted?

thanks.

I don't know if there is a central place for announcing these events, except locally. So I think you'll need to look at some local vatsim area. In Scandinavia we had a First Flight event last Saturday between EKBI (Billund, Denmark) and EVRA (Riga, Latvia).

Events are posted in my.vatsim.net log in there and you will see an events calender.

The recent first wings event was apart of the VATSIM 20 Years celebrations.

I see there is a First Wings event in Europe on 8 November. Link for anyone interested

Unfortunately, late Sunday European time is almost time to start work Monday over here (Australia). Are there any Asia-Pacific time friendly First Wings events coming up?

Yep, that one was last year.

Right now there isn't one scheduled, but something more permanent then an occasional event is being planned, including for timezones that aren't America/Europe. I hope to be able to share some details on it soon.

I have had several hours experience on the server,  but I still consider myself a beginner,  still get nervous,  still make mistakes.  Would I still be able to join a first wings event even though its not my first time?

Would I be considered as a total beginner..??
