Thank you for that Gillian,

 

Hope your family is fairing well

[Vale Richard "Quigs" Quigley]

Quigs, I hope you find rest.

You were such an amazing man, always willing to have a conversation, or willing to listen to my youthful rants. Similar to how I was always willing to listen to your stories.

I dont believe the teamspeak is even online anymore? Last I tried to connect it booted me for an invalid connection

At what point would you change back to the normal callsign? Would this not be the exact same as the aformentioned, only later?

You wouldn't, in my experience. For instance when I control in the US, for Anchorage i log in as ANC_O3_CTR rather than 03_CTR. 

 

Makes it a bit easier

I do see the benefit in it and am trying to play devils advocate a little. However, I do hope to see you both doing the proper handover briefings online in the future

one thing i pride myself is proper handover briefings haha, but good guide mate

what benefit does logging in with a relief callsign have over an observer callsign?

The way I see it, the observer would log into to be able to view their airspace, setup the sector information required, copy over ATIS, and do the brief. If you are fully setup, chaning over to the CTR callsign should be a matter of announcing "controller change in progress", the controller disconnecting, and you reconnecting as a controller. I fail to see hopw this takes any more than 15 seconds. Or am I missing something.......?

If someone logs in with a relief calllsign, then instead of disconnecting and such, the outgoing controller can hand off aircraft, and the incoming can just simply TX/RX the frequency. It makes for easier transfer of control.

[Some clarifications for new BN airport procedures]

Thank you both for those updates, It will be extremely useful when i control BN next. I had no idea of any of these procedures.

Have a good one

[Automated Sector File Updates]

I've been using this for almost a year now, and it's amazing. 

[Issue with sector at Karratha]

Hey, just with the sector file which contains KA on Euroscope, theres a double runway numbering. Not sure if this is intended

Nah, not old age.

I always love flying under Terries Control. His extreme experience is amazing when it comes to controlling!

Oh my... That, that looks good.

why post 2 files then??

To allow people flexibility I'd assume

[airac update]

Hey, the EXE does all the work for you, and the files allow you to install it yourself.

Thank you for your suggestion however due to PAJN being located in Alaska I think you'd be better suited asking someone in VATUSA about organizing an event there. 

Out of our jurisdiction  

Sam, I realise now that I asked about the wrong event :rofl:

I meant to say Wednesday Discovery, such as the following events

 

 

It'd be great if we could get some Alaskan events, such a pretty state

[Friday/Sunday night suggestion]

Hi,

is there any chance if we can have a flight planned to/from Juneu PAJN? I flew into it today and it was amazing, I think it could make for a fun evening

Thanks, Tristan.

[gold coast]

Hey All, in July between the 6th and the 24th, I'm going to be in the gold coast for about a week (not sure of the exact dates). I'm most likely able to travel on the train or bus.

Thanks all, hope to see you then!

[Oz Flight Sim Expo 2020 | Wings Over Illawarra]

Sam, I don't speak for Callum, but as an exhibitor my entry is still covered under my booth payments. Last year I brought in some friends to the expo under my exhibitor passes. It should be the same this year.

[Affiliate VA Mandatory Event]

Greg, What is the website for veeoz?

[Setting up an ATIS with Audio for VATSIM]

Cristian, this is a known issue within the vATIS community. Only some positions work without issue, namely each U.S major airport.

The bot server likes to have hissie fits. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesen't. Try it again tommorow, and report back. Normally that works 

[Setting up an ATIS with Audio for VATSIM]

Just the issue is it's not an official vatpac piece of software. There are ways of customising the output of the atis in vATIS.

Tristan, any news?  What’s happening with this?

Sean, Tristan is not involved in this any more.

Peter, Knowing I am no longer involved, I would still be happy to write a rundown document on differences if you wish?

There is a main difference with entering class D airspace in the FAA, this being it. 

More specifically the Current Transponder Code.

Otherwise procedures are very similar,

I could do a cheat sheet on .65 phraseology if you wish?

[Marshall Islands]

Yeah, the 7110.65y is current.

[AFV and Linux]

Can you link the dotnet version you used? I'm still unsuccessful in starting afv.
