Hey Jordan!

 

If there is no active ATC around at Cardiff you should tune your COM1 Radio to the well known Unicom frequency 122.800 (text only frequency - you just write your intentions, e.g. EGFF Trf, BAW123 turning base for RWY 17).

 

If there is ATC at Cardiff, tune to his frequency and request a clearance and fly

 

All the best,

Michael

If there is any ATC nearby, they will appear in your ATC list, e,g if Cardiff Tower EGFF_TWR is online, you will see EGFF_TWR (125.0) listed. Just set your com1 to 125.0 to listen in/speak.

 

If you are flying around the UK, you will find useful charts at www.ais.org.uk (free registration). Also have a look at the VATSIM-UK web site www.vatsim-uk.org

Jordan,

 

If ATC is online at Cardiff it will probably be Wycliffe Barret or Dave Birch. You will not find two more helpful guys to help you along. If you have any questions just PM them on SB or FSInn and you'll get all the help you need.
