Have you made a VATSIM account, but feel intimidated every time you try to speak on the frequency? Or have you yet to make an account in fear that you haven't got what it takes yet? Then this is the event for you! VATSIM First Wings is the perfect place to start your VATSIM journey, with experienced and patient ATC who are dedicated to helping you start off the right way. You will also have the aid of VATSIM's very own pilot mentors, from the VATSIM Pilot Training Department, who will answer all the questions you might have. Feel like flying in Australia? VATPAC is opening up the airspace between Adelaide (YPAD) and Canberra (YSCB), so you can enjoy a beautiful scenic trip with excellent and experienced ATC. Note: This event is focused on beginners in the VATSIM environment. If you are a seasoned pilot we ask you to avoid the event airspace in order for us to focus on the beginners to VATSIM. Thank you for your understanding. Event Details: Newbie pilots who want to learn and gain confidence flying on the VATSIM network with live ATC. Experienced controllers who are patient and willing to help newbie pilots on the network. The event commences at 0200z with ATC requested/available until around 0700z. It is recommended you book a slot using the VATSIM booking system, although it is not mandatory. Please be aware that you may experience delays if you fly an event route without a slot. Slots will be available from the 26th of March 2022. An example of procedures between Class C airports in a radar environment in Australia can be found here: https://vatpac.org/help/pilot-tutorials/ifr-melbourne-to-sydney/ Routes: We recommend using the following routes which are suitable for aircraft such as a Boeing 737, Airbus A320, regional jet, business jet or turboprop. YPAD – YSCB:ROUTE: DCT BENDO H36 KACEY DCT YSCB – YPAD:ROUTE: DCT WG Q60 BLACK DCT Charts: If you do not have charts they are available here: https://vats.im/pac/charts ATC:Controllers interested in controlling the event are encouraged to submit their ATC Applications here. Applications will remain open until three days before the event (06APR22), after which the roster will be released and available for viewing. Please keep in mind that slot availability will be dependent on the number of applications. Non-standard positions (marked with *) can be opened in accordance with the Activation of Non-Standard Positions NOTAM.

    Event Details Aerial Fire Suppression Training Exercise - Vicinity of Canberra - XP11 pilots should install accompanying scenery using the link provided. NOTE : This special event comes at the cost of multi-simulator support. This event is intended to be conducted with the aid of a custom piece of scenery that inserts some smoking targets into existing scenery. FS2020 lacks the ability for aircraft to dump and load addtional payloads. P3D does support this however the author of this flight lacks a copy of the simulator and more importantly its "Software Development Kit", the component that allows for the creation of customised P3D scenery. (Someone wanting to use P3D that has the knowledge to create the scenery is welcome to PM me to obtain the coordinates of the target zones). Those pilots not flying X-Plane 11 can still fly this exercise since all the relevant targets are located at legitimate airports, lakes and townships. Any simulator will be capable of depicting all of these. P3D supports aircraft capable of water bombing and water scooping and as such could fly suppression to targets visible in their respective simulator. Those who wish to fly FS2020 will lack the fire bombing capability however can still accompany pilots that can. Simulation Date/Time : Current date set to daylight. Weather : Real World / Fair weather if real world is unsuitable for VFR operations. Distance : greater than 125 nm Est Flight Time : approx 80 mins Altitude : Remain below Canberra CTA Steps once clear after departure Aircraft : Twin engine aircraft capable of carrying two tanks of water/retardent that can be dumped together or independently. The aircraft should also be capable of "scooping" its load of water from a suitable body of water thus allowing it to operate continuously without the need to land and reload. Examples of such suitable aircraft include the Consolidated PBY Catalina X-Plane 11 and is the preferred aircraft type for this event. The Canadair CL415 (X-Plane)/CL215 represents a potential fallback alternative however the X-Plane 11 variant has some inconvenient limitations. (refer to "Know Your Water Bombing Aircraft" below) Know your water bombing aircraft Which ever aircraft is chosen, pilots should familiarise themselves with the technicalities of ; deploying/retracting the scoop and using this to refill tanks. (X-Plane CL415 mandates use of a hotkey to deploy/retract scoop) dumping the contents of each tank designating whether both or a single tank is to be dumped (X-Plane CL415 is not capable of dropping partial payloads) NOTE : The provided smoke target scenery has an additional target located in WA. The target is situated at the Barbagello Raceway, east of RAAF Base Pearce. Southwest of the raceway targets is Lake Jandaloop and is an excellent location to practice scooping up the necessary water payloads. The target and water body are conveniently located and offer ample opportunity for pilots to tune their skills and aircraft in preparation for the event. Enjoy! Flightplan File as : YSCB YGDO MMM BJK ASST GUNNING LGGN YSCB No GPS Flightplan is provided for this event. Navigation : This flight can be easily navigated visually. Note : Radials and DME distance is provided relative to Canberra VORDME and should porvide a means of verifying an aircraft's position in all phases of this flight Communications Australia uses CTAF (Common Traffic Advisory Frequency) for radio comms at uncontrolled airfields. Now that VATSIM has introduced AFV (Audio For VATSIM) CTAF can now be used across all VATSIM approved pilot clients. Pilots are requested to tune to the published frequency as detailed in the flight details for an event when operating in or around an aerodome to make and monitor CTAF broadcasts. Pilots should also be aware that it is a VATSIM COC (Code of Conduct) requirement that all pilots at uncontrolled airfields should monitor Unicom (Australia 122.80). It is highly recommended that pilots ensure that at least one of their "on board" COM radios (COM 2 being the most likely) is tuned to receive unicom transmissions in addition to transmitting and receiving on the published CTAF frequency. Please Note. All pilots should also be vigilant regarding the receipt of text on both unicom and CTAF. If it is discovered there is a pilot participating that is unable to receive voice transmissions, pilots should arrange to also broadcast via text to ensure those pilots without the benefit of voice is able to receive appropriate broadcasts. VATSIM provides an update guide for getting AFV working on each of the approved pilot clients. Pilots also should read this post regarding the implications of using VATSIM UNICOM for CTAF. It provides some insight into potential pitfalls for the unwary when monitoring 122.80 in a CTAF environment.

Communications Australia uses CTAF (Common Traffic Advisory Frequency) for radio comms at uncontrolled airfields. Now that VATSIM has introduced AFV (Audio For VATSIM) CTAF can now be used across all VATSIM approved pilot clients. Pilots are requested to tune to the published frequency as detailed in the flight details for an event when operating in or around an aerodome to make and monitor CTAF broadcasts. Pilots should also be aware that it is a VATSIM COC (Code of Conduct) requirement that all pilots at uncontrolled airfields should monitor Unicom (Australia 122.80). It is highly recommended that pilots ensure that at least one of their "on board" COM radios (COM 2 being the most likely) is tuned to receive unicom transmissions in addition to transmitting and receiving on the published CTAF frequency. Please Note. All pilots should also be vigilant regarding the receipt of text on both unicom and CTAF. If it is discovered there is a pilot participating that is unable to receive voice transmissions, pilots should arrange to also broadcast via text to ensure those pilots without the benefit of voice is able to receive appropriate broadcasts. VATSIM provides an update guide for getting AFV working on each of the approved pilot clients.

FSCopilot/FSInn VATSIM pilots connecting to the network using FSCOPILOT/FSINN can install an additional file that provides the ability to tune the CTAF frequency and make voice announcements to other pilots on frequency. These files can be obtained via this link. Swift Swift is a recent VATSIM Pilot Client alternative now released to the public as a beta release candidate. This pilot client is a one fits all alternative and will work with FSX, P3D V3/V4 and XPlane in either 32 bit Windows or 64 bit Windows, Mac and Linux. This client, once installed and configured (not for the faint of heart - some guidance can be found in this video tutorial for those with X-Plane on Windows x64), also provides a capability for pilots to designate a private voice channel to allow communication with other pilots in the same voice channel. However, to do this requires a frequency over ride to be set allowing the client to ignore the set frequency instead providing text entry into a text box. Into this box the name of the voice room needs to be entered to enable voice communication. A voice room is typically in the form of "some.server.org/<Airport ICAO>". The server component is ALWAYS "rw1.vatpac.org". So this week's departure would use "rw1.vatpac.org/<Airport ICAO>". For airports without an airport ICAO it is typical to use VATPAC VFR Virtual voice room acccessed using 131.25 in FSINN. The equivalent for SWIFT is "rw1.vatpac.org/virtualvfr".
