- "VATSIM for the Newbie" is meant to help the sim pilot who is thinking of adding VATSIM into their flying experience.
Just a few tips to pass on that helped me get established on VATSIM and to feel more at ease.
This will be in three parts:
Part 1 is an introduction to VATSIM and the various addons that will help.
Part 2 is a flight over one airport just performing three circuits (patterns).
Part 3 is a flight from one airport to another, using more than one controller.

Skyvector not only does US sectional charts, but it does all of the main US charts
Sectionals, TAC charts, Flyway charts, Heli charts, IFR low, IFR hi, and area charts I think is all of them
Thank you for the video, nicely done. Also retired and flying mostly Florida. Love VATSim since they have added CTAF comms
Thanks for your comments, yes VATSIM makes the experience so much better.

some more you could add to this slide, per Vatsim Code of Conduct B8(c)
B8(c) A pilot shall be expected to promptly comply with basic air traffic control instructions that are applicable to their flight rules. These include:
(1) Holding position on the ground at an airport
(2) Flying a speed, heading, altitude or flight level
(3) Approach to land, either visually or flying an accepted instrument approach procedure
(4) When IFR, fly a cleared route by use of navigation aids / waypoints and fly to unplanned navigational aids / waypoints when instructed
(5) When IFR, fly a holding pattern
Thanks STW, I will try to incorporate that into my Part 3

since basically always fly VFR. there usually isnt an assigned altitude. its good to be able to hold an altitude, but its not a requirement for VFR flight unless you are given some sort of restriction when flying in or just into controlled airspace.
when you get flight following for me, I ask for your requested altitude. your altitude is up to you as the pilot since you are VFR. As far as i know, deviations from that altitude, you are supposed to inform ATC, but im not sure if that is actually required. Usually when i ask a VFR pilots altitude while they are already enroute, it is just me making sure their mode C (transponder altitude mode) is correct
Totally agree with your points. I was thinking when sometimes I am told to "... maintain at or below 3,000...". The pilot should be competent enough to not go over the 3,000.
hi from your usual approach controller
You are a great ATC Approach Controller

im pretty sure skyvector only has US charts because US charts are freely accessible.
Correct me if i am wrong, but im pretty sure you need to pay for Canadian charts from the canadian authorities
Yes STW, Canadian charts are not provided by the government - everything in Canada cost more than the U.S. 😞 (exchange rate +35%)
