Tim Neufeld 1013459 Posted September 2, 2007 at 05:21 AM Posted September 2, 2007 at 05:21 AM Hello all. My name is Tim. I just got on to the VATSIM experience, I think its going to be lots of fun! I am from Calgary and naturally want to 'fly' out of YYC. I was just wondering how/when/where I can log in to get a controller out of the YYC field? What server do I have to log into etc. Sorry if this is a dumb question, I have been ingesting lots of information getting going and my brain might just be fried. Thanks for your help ps...I fly tail C-TIMN so if you see me stay out of my way haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Black Posted September 3, 2007 at 04:16 AM Posted September 3, 2007 at 04:16 AM Hey Tim, Welcome to VATSIM and I'm glad your interested in controlling in Canada. You first need to register at www.vatcan.org . After you have applied and are accepted, you need to find some time to find an instructor from Calgary and he will give you all your training materials. Study them and you will eventually be put to the test. Have fun! Joshua Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Matthews 985409 Posted September 4, 2007 at 03:37 AM Posted September 4, 2007 at 03:37 AM Unfortuneately, Calgary staffing seems to be a bit of a rarity. Shame too...I'd love to fly out of Calgary more. Maybe I'm just not on at the right times. Tim, I'd say to get you want, you're gonna need a pretty nifty stroke of luck.

Shame too...I'd love to fly out of Calgary more. Apply to guest control in ZEG FIR then, Andrew. Lead by example.. if you decide to go out there, maybe you'll get someone else interested in it too.
