Alfred Tang Posted September 5, 2007 at 04:25 AM Posted September 5, 2007 at 04:25 AM Just wanna add a little note here...there's a possibility that Beijing control will also be staffed. So come and try some domestic flights if you're interested. Alfred Tang (934809) Director | Hong Kong VACC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yvan Ung 987353 Posted September 5, 2007 at 01:33 PM Posted September 5, 2007 at 01:33 PM EDIT: Count me out of the control tower, I failed the first time. I know, ATC entry tests get harder and harder every time. And I think it is best to give my dream of controlling that remote airport up...

Paul O'Donnell 969350 Posted September 6, 2007 at 11:23 PM Author Posted September 6, 2007 at 11:23 PM Dont be too hard on yourself Yvan, don't give up that dream just yet. Have another go at your S1 test. You never know, this time next month you could be controlling VVTS_TWR. If you need any help or have any questions, drop me a message and I'll try my best to [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ist.

Luke Eng 887900 Posted October 29, 2007 at 08:47 PM Posted October 29, 2007 at 08:47 PM Hi Paul, It's my first time here. I am interested in flying Asia, particularly the Singapore hub, on short hop between S'pore & Phuket. Please let me know when is a good time. Thanks in advance.

Hi Luke, The best time to get ATC would be the weekends, most likely around 0800Z-1500Z you'll see some ATC online. There was quite abit of ATC online over the weekend just been, for the VATIND event and also a fly out with pilots flying the A380. During the weekdays, I'd say the best time to find ATC would be around 1200Z-1500Z. I've been rather busy recently so I've not been too active online nor up to date with VATSIM. What sort of time do you usually fly online? or what time would be best suited for you?

Luke Eng 887900 Posted November 2, 2007 at 09:07 PM Posted November 2, 2007 at 09:07 PM Thanks, Paul & Celestyn. I have been wanting to try VATSIM since I have never done it before. Normally, I would only fly on weekends. Even on weekends, I only have time for a short hop, 1-2 hour the most. However, I will make the effort this weekend for a little experiment.

Paul O'Donnell 969350 Posted November 3, 2007 at 04:45 PM Author Posted November 3, 2007 at 04:45 PM Hi Luke, I see you live in NY, so the best time to fly in Asia for that time zone would be weekends which would suit you. India has a few short hops, Singapore offers a few to Malaysia, Indonesia. They are under 1-2hours. Vietnam and Manilla are just over 2 hours away from Singapore. Vietnam is staffed regularly with a TWR controller. Bangkok is a good flight from and to Ho Chi Minh (VVTS). Bangkok is sometimes staffed on the weekends by some visiting controllers. Hong Kong to Taipei is a popular short route favoured by some of the HK controllers.

Luke Eng 887900 Posted November 3, 2007 at 11:24 PM Posted November 3, 2007 at 11:24 PM Hi Paul, I am anxious to get things working but it seems that neither SB3 nor FSInn is cooperating with my system here. After logging on VATSIM and logging off, I had problem restarting FS9. It freezes every time. Even resetting it to default did not help. Finally this morning, I had to re-install FS9 from scratch and tried again. Same thing happened. At this point, I am still looking for a solution.

Luke Eng 887900 Posted November 7, 2007 at 04:59 PM Posted November 7, 2007 at 04:59 PM Finally, it's fixed. It was my video card driver. I will give it a trial this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
