    The CRAFT acronym helps heaps when writing down the clearance. For example:
    Clearance limit: YMML
    Route: 16R DEENA7 WOL
    Altitude: 5000
    Frequency: 124.4
    Transponder: 1234

    I gotta say the one about taking notes is more immersive for me to use pen and paper. Pilots do that irl too. They typically don't open a client to take notes. I like these tips but I feel this one takes away from my experience.

      Yes, I agree, I use an ipad with an apple pencil.

    i learned nothing new but I like your energy :D
    I once thought i was using the notes tab in my vpilot but was actually in the message tab and wrote down my taxi instructions and accentally sent them via chat.
    Controller was apparently monitoring text closely as well and was like "readback correct" thinking I maybe did that on purpose or had encountered a mic issue or something :D

    Great tips! The last note you made was my favorite.
    Other good tips.
    In xPilot you can right click on a controller and then select to tune them to COM1 or COM2.
    Both xPilot and vPilot have dot commands, you listed the one for METARs. You can also set your transponder or change your COM frequency as well with a dot command (as well as other things).
    Great video once again!

    The tip to use chartfox is probably the best. The money is need for navigraph is much better used on planes like the pmdg 737

    It's funny to listen to VATSIM people say "artac" or "artic". Literally no one in RL ATC land says that.

    @RAVIOLIdS ปีที่แล้ว +1

    well this is where the fslabs and p3d takes the biggest W, we have everything one need in the iPad and in the aoc menu and once combined with active sky the Atis is not needed as you just tune 122,000 or 122,025, 122,050

  • @maxs4986
    @maxs4986 ปีที่แล้ว

    if you have an ipad and an apple pencil on fore flight you can use the scratch pad that has an atis that is sectioned off for everything and its easy to remember everything

    First time using Vatsim here. When I connect to Vpilot, a jet engine sound starts in the sim, but yet there are no planes around me. So tried it on an empty airport and indeed the jet engine sound is always there as soon as I connect to Vpilot. Is this normal? How do I turn it off?
