Marcelo Luiz Figueira Posted February 20, 2022 at 09:33 PM Posted February 20, 2022 at 09:33 PM Hi there guys, I was wondering why some aircraft on Sim Aware display "PPL" tags and some do not. Is it an option for members to display or hide it? Same for controllers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dace Nicmane Posted February 22, 2022 at 01:37 PM Posted February 22, 2022 at 01:37 PM Never seen it. Can you show us a screenshot of what you're seeing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Board of Governors Don Desfosse Posted February 22, 2022 at 01:49 PM Board of Governors Posted February 22, 2022 at 01:49 PM Are you certain that the people you are seeing without the tag have been awarded one of the VATSIM pilot ratings?

Dace Nicmane Posted February 22, 2022 at 02:53 PM Posted February 22, 2022 at 02:53 PM If you mean the yellow tag next to the pilot's name when you click on an aircraft, you should be seeing not only PPL but also IR, CMEL and ATPL. People earn ratings to show them off, so why would somebody want to hide them? So no, members who don't have a tag simply don't have a rating. Also, haven't seen pilot ratings displayed for ATC.

Daniel Faria Posted February 22, 2022 at 10:10 PM Posted February 22, 2022 at 10:10 PM I see it too!!!! it is because you can earn that rating by going to https://my.vatsim.net/pilots/train and then you have to complete an exam and then you earn that rating. alexandrerezende.net prayorbeprayedfor.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcelo Luiz Figueira Posted March 5, 2022 at 04:10 PM Author Posted March 5, 2022 at 04:10 PM (edited) On VATSpy you can see all the ratings (Pilots and controllers). On SimAware, just PPLs. Why does it happen? Edited March 5, 2022 at 04:12 PM by Marcelo Luiz Figueira Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dace Nicmane Posted March 5, 2022 at 08:02 PM Posted March 5, 2022 at 08:02 PM I just checked some 10 flights and looks like simaware only shows PPL correctly. All the IR pilots are shown as CMEL, and ATPL and CMEL tags are not shown at all. Apparently a simaware problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
