If this has been covered in another post please let me know where.

 

We've started noticing problems with accepting controllers with 7 digit CIDs at ZFW ARTCC. I can view their VATSIM stats with 7 digits. I see them on the VATUSA ZFW roster with 7 digits. But, they are not being accepted as Student 1. They keep going back to Observer/Pilot.

I have addressed this issue prior with the ATMs and TAs via the ATM and TA mailing lists. It is a problem with the hardcoded sections of the VATUSA website. We are building a whole new website to fix this and other problems.

What is a cid code. I show on the zla artcc roster as a student but cannot get into anything with vatusa. I have never recieved any official email from anything vatusa. All vatsim seems to work fine.

CID: Controller ID Number

PID: Pilot ID Number

VID: VATSIM ID Number

 

CID == PID == VID

 

They are all the number you are registered with VATSIM (1006375, in your case). Mine is 876322.

Actually on VATSIM there is only a CID and it is Certificate ID. The net result however is the same.
