This FAQ will cover Divisional questions frequently made by our members, but be sure to check out the POSCON network FAQ too, if the infromation you are looking for is not on this section.
If you have a question you think should be on here, be sure to let a member of the Division Staff Team know!
A: Simply visit the United Kingdom Divisional Page on the HQ System. Ensuring you have your desired join selected on the toggle bar 'Top Right' of the HQ System. You will be presented with a "Join Pilot" or "Join ATC" button. Give it a click and allow us to welcome you with open arms. Be sure to read some of the documentation and SOPs, and we'll see you in the skies!
A: Currently, there are no restrictions on the positions or airports that you can control. We ask, however, that you make sure you are comfortable with the position in question, and read the SOPs available. The Division reserves the right to restrict positions, in line with the POSCON regulations.
A: It sure can! Let a member of the Division Staff Team know the airport you are trying to log onto, and we will try our best to get this added as soon as we can. Sometimes, this may take a little bit of time for us to process. As the Division develops, we will keep adding new airports and positions.
A: The Sector File is still in development, and as such we cannot guarantee all airports being present yet. We are always trying our best to add as many as we can, though this takes a little bit of time. You can always take a look at the progress on the GitHub page, or even try helping out!
A: Sorry about that! As we are still developing, not all airports will have documentation yet. We are working on it, and constantly creating new SOPs and docs for you to read and use! We ask that you're patient with us, and in the meantime ask our friendly community for any information you may need.
A: At the moment, there is no other radar client than the one provided, and there are no immediate plans for a different client/theme. We appreciate that the client simulates US-based software, rather than European-based software, and can be a bit intimidating. However, after a little bit of practice, we're sure it'll grow on you!
A: Great question! POSCON has provided a manual for using the radar client, which you can always reference back to. If you are still having issues, be sure to let our community know, who will be always able to help you out!
