Chase Weigel Posted May 30, 2022 at 01:42 PM Posted May 30, 2022 at 01:42 PM Hello, I completed the new member orientation and clicked on the directed link for the exam, however there is no exam available. I have logged out and back in and still do not have any exams to take. Is it possible to get the exam assigned to me. Thank you Chase W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Board of Governors Don Desfosse Posted May 30, 2022 at 01:46 PM Board of Governors Posted May 30, 2022 at 01:46 PM Hello, Chase, and welcome back! Since you joined VATSIM prior to the New Member Orientation (P0) requirement, you are "grandfathered" from that requirement. Your membership account is active. That said, I'm glad you took the orientation course, and hope it helped prepare you for your time on the network!

David Gustafson Posted July 1, 2022 at 03:02 AM Posted July 1, 2022 at 03:02 AM I'm having the same issue. I don't see the exam but now understand that I also was grandfathered in. The question that I have at this point is that it is still show my current rating as "New Member" on the Pilot Training page. I'm guessing that that would be updated if I were to go through the PPL training, correct? Second, if that is the case, do I need to click on the "View ATO Roster" link under "Start Your Training"? I just want to make sure that I'm not skipping steps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Thomson Posted July 1, 2022 at 12:25 PM Posted July 1, 2022 at 12:25 PM As a P0 you have the label "new member" and that would change if you get a rating. The steps are that if you want a rating, you do P1 first. You start training for that with an ATO. It's best to choose a "local" ATO as they would teach local procedures and aviation practice.
