I am please announce the official opening on VATSTAT - The VATSIM Online Terminal Scheduler for the Australia area.

 

VATSTAT simulates an airport terminal flight board, providing up to the minute information on flight status and estimated arrival times. This information is correct to within 2-4 minutes.

 

To check the status of your flight, go to http://www.vatstat.com

 

Suggestions and questions are welcome, simply go to http://www.vatstat.com and click on Contact Us at the bottom of the page.

 

Special thanks to Torin Gleig, Jake Saw, Nick Togias and Andrew Harle for their [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance in testing and proving the site and to Ross Carlson from VATSIM for his help and advise during VATSTAT's development.

VATSTAT has exceeded all our expectations with hundreds of people viewing their flight information everyday, in countries as close as New Zealand and as far away as Israel and Russia. We thank the VATSIM and especially the VATPAC community for their continued advise, suggestions and support as we strive to make VATSTAT the best it can be.

 

In this light we have implemented several new features to the flight board:

VA Filter

A popular new feature is the VA filter. The main flight board shows all the online flights in Australia with an active flight plan, but the VA filter allows you filter out all other flights, showing only those from your VA. For more information on having your VA added to the filter, see http://www.vatstat.com/?q=help

 

Flight Details

You can now click a flight's callsign from any VATSTAT flight board and view further detailed information including the operator, flight status, captain information, aircraft details, groundspeeds, altitude, planned fuel, current position on a live map, up-to-date destination/departure weather information and more.

 

Higher Accuracy

New algorithms have been implemented to provide more accurate estimated arrival times.

 

Operator Recognistion

VATSTAT can now recognise many world-wide airline operators. Main flight boards display their logo and the logo and name can also be seen on any Flight Details page. Most major Australia operators have been added to the database as well as many international operators with more added every day.

 

Again, a big thanks to the community for their continued support. Don't forget to keep the tips and suggestions coming to [email protected].

Thanks, Johnathon. We've got many more exciting additions to VATSTAT in the coming months.

 

For now, we've released a promotional video, giving a quick introduction to the flight boards.

It's available to watch now on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=At2Y2jjWb5E

In line with our schedule of new features, VATSTAT is proud to present our new updates.

 

ATC Board

We got many requests to make a flight board for ATC, so we've now created an ATC Board. This shows all online Air Traffic Controllers in Australia.

This is our coolest feature yet. You can now register and login to VATSTAT and customise your flight boards to display only the flights you want to see!

 

Support Ticket Centre

We've now implemented a more advanced and efficient support system. If you cannot find the answer to a question in our help section you can follow the links to open a new Support Ticket to aquire [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance from one of our trained support staff.

 

To see these awesome new features and more, go to http://www.vatstat.com

 

We've also created a new promo video to explain these features in greater detail:

With these new systems being slightly complicated, there are bound to be bugs and quirks. If you see something amiss, give us a shout via a support ticket. Comments and suggestions are, as always, quite welcome via the same method.

 

 

 

Cheers,

 

Chenky

Hi Emirhan,

 

Thank you, it's great to get feedback on our product. We'll soon be adding more features and you'll be pleased to know we'll be adding many more countries, from all regions of the world, including Turkey!

 

VATSTAT.com is currently down. Our service provider is currently moving all of their physical servers to a brand new data centre in Sydney. We expect full service to resume within the hour.

 

As always, feedback, comments and suggestions are always welcome. You can post to this thread, or to a new support ticket on our website when it's back up.

 

 

Kind regards,

 

Joshua Minchenko

Director VATSTAT.com
