- I am now a S1 controller at ZKC on VATSIM! Come fly STL sometime and say hi. This video showcases what it is like to be a ground controller on the network. You start at delivery/ground and work your way up from there. Big thanks to all at ZKC that helped me achieve my goal to be a controller on the network!

![How to Become a Virtual Air Traffic Controller on VATSIM! [2019]](/img/n.gif)
It’s been a great pleasure watching you, Ryan, and others continuing to grow your flight sim skills over the last couple years. Looking forward to the upcoming World Flight event.
Is this you Shaver?
I was SWA 2847 that night. Great job and keep it up, Jeff! Look forward to flying again in your air/groundspace soon!
Thanks for flying STL!
Do u remember where you were flying to or no???
You sound like an actual pilot. Am I right??
Its wild seeing you so involved with VATSIM, shall I say finally? It really is great to see the increased exposure you're giving VATSIM, especially since the massive strides it has made in the previous years.
This is interesting. It feels like a foreign language at times. But over time, it gets easier to understand. I respect everyone who does this in simulation, but especially IRL. It's not easy.
You being a controller at STL is gonna bring so many more pilots to the area! Glad you are doing this! :)
Nice Job, Jeff! I can't even comprehend how much you grow not only your channel, but your skillset is so incredible! You are a true Role Player!
Hey man this is awesome, so proud of you! Keep up the awesome work, it's great to see you always learning and sharing that with us!
Really cool. I'm a recently retired airline captain and fly on VATSIM and PilotEdge these days when using FS2020. I am considering becoming an Air Traffic Controller on VATSIM at some point. Good to see you are enjoying it!
Love to see VATSIM on the Channel! Keep up the good work! Congrats on the S1!! Cheers!
How do you remember all that stuff? Dude, where did you get your brain...you must have a memory like an elephant
lots of lots of practice and training
@@jfavignano and kakane (love your vids jeff. Derailed isnt as complicated as it sounds when you play it) peace!❤
My thoughts talking to ground at my local international airport. It just becomes second nature
Best way to practice is by writing it down. Then you can't forget it.
Try controlling APP or CTR and doing that top down meaning your the only controller for every airport in your airspace.
Congrats Jeff! I need to get into VATSIM once I get a computer upgrade. Think it would help me prepare for flight school here in the spring (hopefully).
Also, love the trolling of Ryan. 😂
Love seeing the behind the scenes of controllers on vatsim. Great Video
Hi Jeff. It’s crazy that I just got the notification that you uploaded this video. Mainly because I have just been getting into VATSIM and controlling. This video is going to help me so much. 😊
I have been following you for a few years now. I am so happy you are the controller there, I will certainly be flying there knowing you are there now. I just started my journey becoming a controller on Vatsim. I will be at KZLC though.
Congrats Jeff!
As a fellow vatsim S1 controller, I wish you a lot of luck on your journey! Welcome to vatsim-controlling :)
I just became a S1 as well!
Congrats!@@AviationLover2111
This is great to see! I’m glad you joined the more entertaining side in my opinion.
Man sounds so natural doing this All those years of playing flight simulator really paid off and other simulator games. Good job man. Keep it up ❤
I always wondered what the ATC perspective looked like, thank you for the look into the world of VATSIM Control ^_^
Great job Jeff. Congratulations.
love this Jeff
Congratulations Jeff love you brother keep it rocking
Congrats Man!
I just started this week. I am at the Salt Lake ARTCC facility. I have done one sweatbox session so far at Bozeman airport. After one more training session I may be able to go live supervised. ☺️
Congrats Jeff! This is wicked
Congratulations Jeff!
I just got my S1 in ZNY at the beginning of this month, happy to be on this journey alongside you! I'm also enjoying the journey as I go, not sure when I'll have the confidence to go for S2 lol
Jeff, all of that sounded super legit, good stuff!!
I was shocked to see you on VATSIM when I tried it for the first time. Had a great time and looking forward to talking to you again
Congrats brotha
Awesome, congrats!
I had no doubt Jeff. Your tremendously talented and brilliant. I honestly can’t be more proud of you. I love you champ. Ps keep singing. You have a wonderful voice
Can’t wait to hear you on the airwaves. STL my home airport. Great job
How cool! Congrats Jeff!
That’s awesome jeff. Hopefully soon I’ll fly into your airspace!
This is so cool and because its real players / people, Anything could happen like the real deal!
This is going to be an easy watch as always!
I love your videos!
I got my S1 just over a year ago, but I never pursued actual training cause of busy classes and I just enjoy the pilot side of simming more, but maybe some day I'll finish it off...
I was NKS 323 and it was an awesome experience the whole night. been a fan since the LSPDFR days and I never stopped enjoying the content so keep up the awesome work
Love how you readback slow and steady
Love it!
I had the pleasure of you controlling me out of St. Louis a while back when you first started. Excellent work! Delta 632.
Thank you!
Love you jeff you need to do more MSFS Videos
Ooh i'm gonna have to fly in St Luis soon
need more of this
Very good bro
You know when I first started VATSIM in 2011, I've always wondered why this never became a thing for you (I rememebr you're old fly with me series back in the day). Can't believe that was more than 10 years ago, now flying at a major carrier.
I still have that fly with me playlist going and have quite a few vatsim flights on there. Thank you and congrats on working at a major!
True that! Guess I don't watch the VATSIM as much as I used to. I'm specifically recalling the one FSX video in the 757, thats just iconic somehow! and appreciate your kind words! @@jfavignano
Loved flying with you n229sw here I am new but it was awesome to meet you
And yes it was my first day
Pretty good! Tighten up the coms and you’re ready
Great ATC service!
Nice mate!
Welcome to the club! I'm a controller at your neighbor, Chicago Center. Perhaps I'll coordinate traffic with you someday!
would love it
Congrats Jeff! I'm getting my rating soon to control in Australia. Here in Australia, we go straight to S2 rating as the first rating you can get. Over here we also use a programe called VATSYS which is used for all controlling positions!
What a difference to Europe. Over here Euroscope is dominating.
@BeauVerwijlen we used to use Euroscope in Australia. Vatsys is 100% better.
@@sweatdeo Definitaly agree! But you know what really better is? Flying, instead of controlling haha!
@@BeauVerwijlen haha depends what mood you're in 🤣
My head starts spinning just listening, I can't imagine actually doing this 😂
Awesome love it is this online
This is something I've wanted to do for a while! Perhaps I'll finally apply:)
Hey Jeff! I love watching your videos and I used to get on vatsim all the time. How can I find your controlling schedule so you can be my ground controller?
More vatsim flights please!!!!!
Amazing! I’ll come fly here sometime!
-almost a ZBW S1
I officially have my S1 yay
Been flying to STL and with you there a few times, youve been absolutely great and I honestly didnt even realize you were just starting. do you remember sunwings lol?
But of course!
@@jfavignano I remember your old flight sim vids where you flew STL a lot, and now youre controlling it. Awesome work
Would love to fly with you dude! Any plans for a group flight on Vatsim?
As a Former S1 it is very stressful!
What software do y'all use for controlling? In the UK we use euroscope is it the same for you? But just did a different region?
As someone with an accent that naturally pronounces 3 as 'tree', I appreciate the accuracy to the phonetic language on the radio, I literally automatically correct myself to a normal accent unconsciously when I'm on a radio.
haha my birthday was actually on november 4th, pretty cool that world flight was as well!
Happy belated birthday 🎉
Make sure you connect the departure procedure to the plan, eg “JHART7 departure, JHART, then as filed.”
Hey I always fly out of KSTL. I live in STL lol
How can one do ATC along with spectating the airport at the same time? Any help would be appreciated!
Omg Jeff that was me DAL454, love your videos. Was my favourite atc for sure
That's awesome!
Awesome, how do you know the taxiways off by heart?
I am currently on my S1 training.
Hello another VATSIM controller (S2) here, welcome to the club. I am based out of ZLA and quick question is STL a major?
How did you combine the game and ATC panel together?
I wish real world controllers would be as nice as this 😂
Welcome to the controlling family!
How do i start training to Vatsim ATC i think that would be so much fun
Congratulations! I'm a UK S2, the ratings are loong but wow is it fun!
Any training videos you recommend?
What do you do if there is a newbie and they are so confused
I passed my vatsim test for pilots, but haven’t connected to the network yet because i don’t think i can listen that fast and write down to read back, do you have any tips?
New pilots we will read it slower to you or send a PDC (pre departure clearance)
Thanks for sharing, what client do you use?
Hry jeff can u do a vud where u start the vid off by hello everybody jeff fagvino and we are back at against just a little bit cooler
Delta typically doesn’t go to Dallas from St. Louis.
on VATSIM no one cares about that
Is their a Discord that helps new players become comfortable with vatsim and everything?
Cool what’s your schedule?
hey, how did u become an atc? was it trough vatsim uk and a year on the waiting list? or did u do it diffirent?
VATUSA and I joined ZKC that didn’t have a waiting list
@@jfavignano ight but can you after that go to the uk?
I was JBU2475 great job Jeff keep it up
Thanks!
I thought you weren’t allowed to use MSFS as a tower view? Has that changed? If so that’s awesome!
Why would that ever be a thing?
How long did it take you to make it through training and then get approved? I just started my journey and am looking forward to it.
About 4 months
@@jfavignano Wow. That's actually not too bad. I imagine it is harder and takes longer to get into the busier airports, but I don't mind taking my time to work my way too it. I'm looking to start pursuing my private pilot license sometime next year, so learning all of this stuff now will give me a solid foundation to start from when I actually start the real life process. Thanks for the quick response.
Please stream when you control!
I always do on twitch.tv/jfavignano
Airforceproud collab when?
No chaos, how?
Hey man sorry I was at on the ball that day wasn't feeling the greatest but decided to give it a try and then on top of that my sim being wonky and thanks for being so chill and appreciative from swa1855
It sounds so real!!! This isn’t real is it?
Where can I find out when you are a controller? I want to fly when you’re on!
You can use vatspy or map.vatsim.net/
@@jfavignano Thank you!
Hey 👋🏾
hey
Bro i want to setup vatsim but i have no idea what im doing XD
it just takes practice!
Hey Jeff! What days and times are you normally controlling, still gotta stop by and say hi
I don't have a schedule but I control quite often during the week/weekends
@@jfavignano gotcha I’ll keep my eyes out for ya!
what scenery do you use for STL?
