Looking for ATO

Hello everyone!

I'm interested in starting my training for the pilot ratings in a couple of months from now. My goal would be reaching the P4 (ATPL) rating.

I have been looking at the ATO roster, and I'm doubting between two ATO's: VATSTAR and BAVirtual. Keep in mind that I live in Europe.

I would like to read your opinions about both ATO's, and which one do you recommend me.

Thank you!

All ATOs offer training according to the same standards set out by the VATSIM PTD. VATSTAR is open to everyone while BAVirtual is a Virtual Airline and you would need to be enrolled as a pilot with them first.

Everyone's experience is different and I am not sure how appropriate it would be to post personal opinions about the various ATOs. Instead you should reach out to each organization. VATSTAR has a dedicated Discord server with over 3,000 members and someone will be happy to answer your questions there. The website also has contact information for you to use. Best of luck with your virtual training!
