i know im randomly asking but does someone know a trick to get back into an instagram account?
I was stupid forgot the login password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
Now who, in their right mind, would give this series of videos a thumbs down?? they're the most helpful videos iv'e seen yet.
+chidragon60 IVAO fans.
@@takezokensei44 I am a IVAO fan but I liked this. This is the most helpful aviation video I have ever seen.

+Ujjwal Bhandari Haha yeah I saw that one too :)
Wait No way is this like real real where you talk to the real ATC like do you talk with people in a airport tower !?!?!, because i need help with talking to the tower and ATC, because im a student pilot going for my private pilot!!! Love the video man !! Keep it up!
Yes it is. There are people who fly on the network and also people who act as air traffic controllers. Check out vatsim.net for more information ;)
This video series helped me the most!
You answered a lot of my questions. Thank you.
You're welcome! :)
first time I bookmark a yTsite, great work,thank you

you nailed captain joe's intro haha
v good tuts v crisp vids. like it.
Thanks!
Thanks a lot
You're welcome!
Well the main problem for me seems to be the very poor sound coming from the controllers... I'm not able to hear what they say!
Ivar Dozon same problem, I always end up switching to chatting in text
The best solution for me is to go over to IVAO. Alot better in my opinion, there's a huge debate though..
EASY
Go to VPilot,settings,audio,uncheck the Enable VHF.....
Yuval Abramzon thank you but I have started out now and I'm very comfortable with it flying with atc almost every day now!! thank you all ;))
Well 7500 sounds fun.
It is not.

Hi pls help how do I get the frequency for the airport when I load in
wow awsome graphics :)
Thanks! :) And it's not even FSX! ;)
What are you using... the graphics are so clear and crisp.
My PC specs are in my channel description. Apart from that I just use FS2004 with aircraft and scenery addons. Real Environment Xtreme is probably the best addon, because it changes the way the environment looks in FS2004.
Thanks... I might give real environment a go:)
14 yrs old, abit scared of going onto VATSIM for the first time. xD Update: 10 May 2017, I find VATSIM Quite fun.
The younger you start, the better and quicker you learn ;)
AWX Plays ....try pilotedge
Me too :)
I agree and im 13
If you know what you are doing then its easy and talking fast is learned fast actually i find the atc quite slow at speaking
Perfect for aviation enthusiast and not only the "older"
+Frankie Round then you are ready for the VATSIM network
"not as busy as real world" LMFOAOAOA New York and London would like to have a word with you! i fly Concorde back and forth between the two cities
i am vatsim user i install vpilot when start fsx simulater that time i set frequency and push talk button but i unable to communicate with atc , only when i set frequency of atis that only read rest frequency i unable to communicate
Hello. First of all, congratulations for the amazing videos on your channel. I've been flying on flight simulator since 2004 and I'm thinking in starting flying on VATSIM, but there's a problem, I don't know anything about aircraft communications, since on flight simulator, you don't need to vocally do them. Can you recommend me a manual or a video which could teach me the communications in every step of the flight? That would be a big help! Thank you so much, and keep up with the excellent videos.
+Edgar Freitas Thanks! Well, in the same series there are videos on departure and on arrival communications, like here: th-cam.com/video/2D_J4GUNI_c/w-d-xo.html Also, you could watch my full flight videos to see it all in practice and learn it that way, like this one: th-cam.com/video/S6O6SoE_PDk/w-d-xo.html Hope that helps! :)
+AviationPro Thank you so much for your help. You definitely gained another subscriber. :) Take care.
What are the two aircrafts at the very end of the video? Arion Lightnings?
Aerospool WT-9 Dynamics ;)
Ok thanks for responding,I figured it out, my other question is what weather addon do you use because I use the 'real weather download' from fs9 and SimBrief to plan my flights but a high percentage of the times the winds at my arrival airport along with the QNH are off, any tips😏😕
It's better to use a payware weather add-on like Real Environment Xtreme or Active Sky. Their weather engines depict the real world weather in a much more accurate way and they also have an option to use VATSIM weather so it's completely syncronized with the VATSIM network. :)
I use Oculus Rift and in P3D you don't see messages so is there any other way that a controller can notify me that he wants me to tune to his frequency?
How do you listen to the arrival airport's ATIS without leaving the ATC frequency?
+Dan Wood You can also use the COMM2 radio, but I usually just look at the text version by requesting controller information in the pilot client.
hi cap. How to config squax box? thank you very much cap
There's no config needed, just install and connect. You can read more info about Squawkbox on squawkbox.ca.
Hi. I have been fluky for all most 3 years now. I have just got vatsim. How do I join a game with live act and other people flying aircraft.
how do you have traffic in the airport? and the gps on the virtual cockpit?
You need to buy and install addons for that. You can buy an AI traffic addon for traffic. If you want a realistic cockpit you can buy the iFly 737 or PMDG 737 for example.
How to get the frequency of that airport ATC?
i think it s in the charts
Moeten we de hele tijd nadat we zijn opgestaan modus C gebruiken? Geweldige video hoor!
Yes, you need to leave squawk mode C while in the air.
Oh, bedankt voor de waardevolle informatie :D
In the US, FAA requires the transponder to be on while you are taxing. Is this now done on VATSIM?
I'm not sure about that, as I rarely fly in the US on VATSIM. In Europe (on VATSIM) it differs per airport, but in most cases they want you to turn the transponder off while on the ground after landing or before departure.
thanks for video , we do not need a team speak ? as in ivao?
Nope, that’s why you have a pilot client
@@AviationPro roger :)
I have an extra question, what if you use FSpassengers? They give you random emergencies depending on how you land the aircraft and do maintnence. It gives them very rarely though but will I still be aloud to use it on Vatsim?
As long as you ask the controller when you have the emergency, but he/she can always deny it. In that case you have to somehow cancel the emergency if that's possible.
Ok thanks if it is possible to cancel emergencies i will use it. If I can't cancel them then I'll just save it for offline. Thanks
sorry but how do you set a button to your joystick cuz i gotta push to talk with ` and i dont get a button binded to my yoke....
If you use vPilot it should be pretty easy.
@@AviationPro I use squawkbox do you know how to set it up there?
@@sidderaal6030 have you tried to go into the xSquawkBox settings for keybinds and then input your yoke when the program asks you?
If that doesnt work then i dont know...
Good Evening,first &foremost your vids are amazing n I learn alot but I have a question. Recently I've installed squakbox on my pic and I use fs9 just like you, I speak to vatsim atc but I still see default fs9 traffic and hear default fs9 atc any help on canceling the defaults out?
Normally I would point you to the Squawkbox forums, but unfortunately the Squawkbox site is permanently down. There should be a fix for this, but what you can do is simply turn off the AI traffic and also in the sound menu of FS turn off the ATC. If you don't fly offline anymore you won't be needing those anyway! :)
What aircraft is that at 7:26 in the video
+vadermike777 The Aerospool WT-9 Dynamic (by Lionheart Creations) :)
So we use standby mode when on the ground. So what if I am cruising? Which transponder mode should I use? Also does charlie mode means TA/RA?
AviationPro
Yes, while in the air it should be in mode charlie, which in general means putting it into TA/RA, as long as the transponder is active.
AviationPro Thank you so much!
wow
How do you figure out though what frequency different controllers are on? EDIT: Nevermind I figured it out
Active controller list on vPilot and tools like Servinfo or VATspy ;)
I tried looking on your channel for your pic specs, unsuccessful ..can you give me a quick run down please
You can find them in the channel description in the "About" section! :)
The frequencies used in vatsim are the real ones ?
Yes :)
what happens if the delivery is not on but every other position is? who do I request my clearance from? ground or tower?
Then you simply contact the first station that you encounter in the "hierarchy" of ATC, so in this case you would contact Ground. Ground will also do the Delivery stuff in this case. If only CTR is online, CTR does everything from Delivery to Radar Control! :)
ah, thank you very much! I often get confused and I don't want to make the controller have more work when it's unnecessary and not needed, thankyou once again
Hello . Many days I’m flying online on Vatsim but many many times I have a problem but not with the all ATC ! I don’t know if it is from me or it is from the ATC . The ATC can not hear me when I’m pressing the push to talk button and than speaking !In the settings I set the USB headphones correctly
Not sure, maybe try a different server when connecting
AviationPro Usually I’m flying on UK1
also I need a step by step process of exactly what to say on VATSIM when taking off, taxiing, landing, after landing, maneuvers and more
Watch the other tutorials of these series, there's a lot more info there. Also read more info on vatsim.net. I would definitely NOT recommend using a keyboard. You have way better control over your aircraft with a joystick.
oh ok. I've been watching airforceproud95 lately and he uses keyboard for all his VATSIM flights.
That's a very bad idea. How are you supposed to follow proper flight paths and ILS approaches etc. in turbulent conditions by using a keyboard? Imagine flying a real plane with a keyboard...
1:45 what airport is that?
St. Maarten by FlyTampa ;)
What software you use?
In this video I used FS2004.
delivery,ground,tower,approach. what features they have ?. When to contact them ?. What if no one is online on a channel ?. I am a bit confused.
Glinho Thanks for your questions, I will be publishing some FAQ videos soon, and one of them discusses your topic! :)
Does vpilot also have the private message function?
I'm not sure because I don't use vPilot, but it would be weird if it doesn't because controllers can always send a private message.
AviationPro yes it has!
Hi. I have been flying for almost 3 years. I have just got vatsim. How to I join a game with live atc and other people flying. Could you help me out
fs04 Idk man
Waar haal jij je liveries voor de vliegtuigen vandaan? Ik heb een PMDG 737NGX gekocht en wil ook gaan vliegen met Arke/TUI.
Van de PMDG website of AVSIM, daar staat heel veel ;)
AviationPro Op de AVSIM site ga ik kijken! Ik heb al op de PMDG Site gekeken maar daar staan geen liveries voor FSX..
Je moet naar de PMDG map gaan in je C schijf en dan moet je kijken naar PMDG Operation Center, daar moet je jou eigen PMDG kiezen en dan kan je deliviery's kiezen! vraag maar voor meer vragen ;)
how do u change the radio to squawk mode c to be able to talk to atc?
It has nothing to do with being able to talk to ATC. At 11:08 you can see how to change the squawk mode to Charlie :)
thx dude :) hope u can answer the pm i send u
Nowadays VATSIM is sometimes busier then real life because of quarantine.
Damn i miss ur MS2004 videos lmao
If I may ask which 767 is that(add on)?
The Level-D 767 :)
Thanks
Does Vatsim Only Allow A Specific Kind Of Aircraft From A Website Or Any?
Also Was That GSX You Were Using During Loading?
You can fly any type of aircraft that you want. I'm not using GSX, but it's a tool to have pushback and catering trucks etc. in the sim.
How can I make private voice chat with someone? what should Ido. i'm using vpilot.
cheers
As far as I'm aware this is not possible in vPilot. You could use something like Teamspeak instead ;).
AviationPro ok. But how can I make my own teamspeak
How do I know what frequency to use.
+HorizonGBRS Check via tools like servinfo or Vatspy which ATC station is online. Based on that you can contact ATC. If you are cruising, most times ATC will send you a "contact me" to notify you that you should contact them on the frequency that is included in the message.
Ok thanks
one thing im confused about is how do I know what frequency to tune in and if im at an airport where there is no tower, what frequency do i use
Watch my new VATSIM tutorial series, they contain more information about that: th-cam.com/video/ecHWjt7cnJM/w-d-xo.htmlm20s
AviationPro hey thanks I actually tried out vatsim and it's great, I have completed about four flights already and all have gone great
Good to hear, have fun! :)
AviationPro thanks!
when flying in FSX on vatsim do u need to use a joystick or just keyboard is fine?
Keyboard and mouse is fine!
I used the mouse yoke for a long time. Only recently got a joystick.
Basically it doesn't have any difference what you use. Only personal opinion.
which joystick u use
Just some entry level joystick, can't remember the name
Works well for me atm. I suggest getting something like a Saitek Fly 5 etc
patrik streng how is logitech extreme 3D PRO
It is quite nice
But what if you are doing a long-haul flight from, let's say from Europe to Asia and you have gone to bed. But then a Air Traffic Controller joins at you are entering his FIR and he sends a Contact me, but your still in bed. What do you then do?
You shouldn't go sleeping in the first place! You will likely be kicked from the network, and maybe even worse: kicked for a couple of days if this happens repeatedly.
AviationPro Aha... Makes sense :D
If I want to connect to a VATSIM network (which requires an account) do I have to pay to create the account or is it free?
XpertPilotFSX Free.
That's correct, it's for free!
Jesus what do you have in your system to run what is that fsx or fs9? So smoothly??? I'm guessing fsx since you have the ngx
Very simple: Don't use FSX! This is FS2004 with the iFly Boeing 737. Just as good as the PMDG NGX, but since it is all FS2004 it is a LOT smoother.
oh no wonder! on another note, I just wanted to thank you for taking your time to make these helpful videos!
You're welcome! :)
What do I say in clearance if there is no atis like what information do I use
+The Flying Scotsman Usually controllers have what's called "Controller info" (which you can obtain via your pilot client) with some basic airport information and maybe also a letter for the ATIS. If not, just ask for the clearance without mentioning any letter. It's not a big deal in that case ;)
+AviationPro thanks :)
+AviationPro one more thing if there is no controllers online at an airport that I'm taking off from do I connect to Unicom and say where I'm going
Yes :)
I've been playing fsx for a while now, but I only recently joined vatsim and I haven't been online yet. I've noticed from all the vatsim videos and tutorials that I've been watching is that the cockpit (on any boeing plane at least) is always the same but is different to the default fsx cockpits, why is this?
That's because those are addon airplanes. You will have to buy products like the PMDG or iFly 737 which have an advanced and realistic cockpit including all the knobs, switches and systems that the real aircraft uses. It has been mentioned at the beginning of this video: th-cam.com/video/UpVpRFPQK2Y/w-d-xo.html
AviationPro ah ok! thanks very much :)
how can you understand the guys so good on vatsim for me the mic is way worse then yours in the video
+MightyMenno Maybe this video helps: th-cam.com/video/Z6hYsi-GY18/w-d-xo.html
ja bedankt
X-Plane or FSX?
Nevermind, it's FSX
Haha, it's not FSX either, it's FS2004 :)
AviationPro Dang, you fooled me :)
:D
hij vraagt naar mijn call sign
I thought the red button on the joystick is the "Fire Weapon" button
Might be the ejection seat actually.
nope,it is to disengage autopilot!
Wait. What if the keyboard or joystick are glitching and not listening to your commands, then in a way they hijacked your plane. So using the code would make sense...
For example my native keyboard tends to press a and d at random, so if I would use it it could lead to such situation.
PS Still it is understandable why that code is to be avoided.
+ZloTip First thing to do is to buy a proper joystick and keyboard. If it starts acting randomly, you could simply not assign anything for the A and D keys, and use other keys instead. If something really goes wrong, just unplug your joystick and fly the rest on autopilot. Then, the next day you will have to buy a new joystick :)
AviationPro Thanks. Is there a specific reason for having 7500 banned?
First of all, how on earth would you simulate a hijack. Second, especially after 9/11, playing around with hijackings is very unappropriate and disrespectful.
AviationPro
Yeah I agree that it is inappropriate, that was my guess anyway.
Well an example of a sim hijack would be younger sibling takes over control, without your consent (for example through persuading parents that it is his turn). Good thing this situation is rare and I seen it happen only once to one of my friends XD
Thanks for quick response btw!
pilotedge if all else fails 😢
i shared my aircraft on fsx and forgot to turn it off, some one got in and brought down my plane )=
StackableGold With a shared cockpit you mean?
AviationPro
yeah
Is it even possible for a random person to "enter" a shared cockpit? Or was it just a friend of yours? :D
random
Nederlander
no
Ok

Great, I'm 12 so I can't join. Not really fair for mature under 13's.
+Jilk Owez It's due to a child policy act in the US. Don't consider yourself mature, you're not. Trust me, you will find out later. Just practice offline with advanced aircraft like PMDG and join VATSIM when ready. You don't want to use a fake age either, that might get you into trouble later on.
I saw a s*x ad on this video
