I just joined today and am having trouble getting started. Where do I begin to fly? How do I pick a plane and get it in the air?

You need a version Flight Simululator and you need to install a pilot cleint such as Squawk Box 3 or FSInn. Then you need to go to www.vatsim.net/PRC and read the "should be" required reading. After that, you are set to go!!!!

 

Look forward to seeing you in the Virtual Skies!!!!

thanks for your reply. I got flying and am now having problems with the INN Chat. I keep getting a message that says I failed to connect. I can't figure it out.

I hatet to say this but read the manual. It's all in there, that is the manual for FSinn, and the only reason I am saying this rather than give you direct help is because your question is rather vague, a little more precise and perhaps I can give you the anser you need.

You skipped one of the necessary steps during the intstall. It's added to the updated PRC that hasn't went online yet.

Go through all the steps in the announcement in the FSInn Help forum, "Installing FSInn".

For FSInn/VATSIM issues, please test the FSInn Installation sticky and linked FAQ. It really works!
