We are pleased to announce the release of POSCON's X-Plane Pilot Client 1.1 Beta 8. This release brings a whole host of changes including: Completely new user interface. Support for the new TCAS API that exists in X-Plane 11.50. Basically, this allows you to see more than 19 aircraft on TCAS and you no longer need to set up ASK21s. VR support. New multiplayer traffic library. A much larger selection of multiplayer models. Yes, the Concorde is now in there! New joystick/key bindings for ghost/unghost toggling. The ability to control VHF radio volume from the virtual cockpit. This uses a custom LUA script that needs to be installed …

I fly a VA that is not yet on POSCON. I wish I could fly under your callsing. How do I request your inclusion? Tanks Velloso - 1021332

Today I completed my first flight on POSCON. I wasnt able to read any ATIS information - I heard sounds but did not receive any messages through the WEB UI Flight Info pages. Is that normal if there is no ATC online? I was flying domestic Germany (Dusseldorf - Munich) Overall great experience and Im looking forward to ATC Best Alexander (some may know me as alexm90 from twitch)

ciao ragazzi, è compatibile con Microsoft flight simulator 2020? Alessandro

Hey everyone! Curious when this will be available to the masses? I am in no rush to start using ATC as I have only logged about 200 hrs in game and still need a lot of practice, but I am hoping to use this network when I am ready to move to the next level of flight simulation. Thanks

I couldn’t find an easy way to delete my account from here. Where can I do this? Thanks

Introducing POSCON Weekly VFR Sessions Join us every Saturday between 1700z and 1930z as we staff up regional air traffic control towers on the Positive Control Network with live ATC. This is a great opportunity to practice your aviation phraseology and get feedback from controllers on how you are doing, while simultaneously helping POSCON test the ATC system. Come and enjoy your new Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 with POSCON's high refresh/update rates and unmatched audio technology. How will it work? Every Saturday, we will staff up a new air traffic control tower and guarantee air traffic control service from 1700z to 1930z. What is the b…

Hello, just wondering why when i fly as the SF50, it shows up as the A320 default airbus when im playing with friends. I know the SF50 is in the model matching folders in XPlane, but its like it wont select it when i connect to the network. Is there something special needed in the boxes before connecting? I put SF50 in the airframe and i leave the airline field blank.

We are introducing a way for people who want to help contribute to the development of POSCON to do so... by crowdsourcing data. In order to get a division up and running, we need three things: people, SOPs, and sector data. If you have the ability to contribute either of the latter two, you can now do so by submitting files to our file repository. Please note, that you must OWN the file or have PERMISSION to submit the file in order to contribute it to POSCON. If you do not own the file or do not have permission to submit it, DO NOT SUBMIT THE FILE! I have created only two categories, but will start to create more categories/sub-categories as we populate th…

Hey guys, hope you are all well! I would like to provide some atc to players on the poscon network over in the uk. i have seen a page on the poscon application pop up where it says logon for atc but then it disappeared when i accidentally clicked off and couldn't find it again. So my question is... is there a specific way i should login to provide this or would i just login as an aircraft first.

Can I start my own VA at Poscon and how? and where do I find the cllient

I am pleased to announce that Matt Bromback has been promoted to be our next Director of Training! As a real-world airline pilot, flight instructor, and flight simulation enthusiast for over 20 years, Matt is more than qualified to serve as the Director of Training for the POSCON Network. Matt and I have known each other for over 10 years and have a history of flying together IRL at a previous airline job. We share a similar vision to how the network training will be designed and administered. I am confident he will be able to create the best training environment available on flight simulation for both virtual pilots and air traffic controllers alike. Join me in congratu…

In the near future, we want to achieve 100 simultaneous connections to stress test our network infrastructure. We need ideas for what kind of an event we should hold to achieve this result. Please suggest locations to conduct the event at (regions/airports) and dates/times that fit your schedule. Please post your ideas in the comments below. A couple of notes: Radar equipped ATC will likely not be available in time for the event; however, we do have the ability to simulate one or more "VFR Towers" that could provide local air traffic control services for the event. We ideally would like everyone to gather in the same "region". It doesn't necessarily need …

come back next year i guess?

Why does POSCON need all of these permissions from my Discord acccount? This seems excessive.

After a lot of thought and consideration, we have decided to add a throttled release plan to our roadmap which we are calling the "Invite-Only Beta" phase. This means that initially, POSCON will only be available to those individuals that have been given an invite code. This new managed plan allows us the flexibility to continue developing features while also rapidly responding to support issues. Roadmap to Release All times are subject to change!

Hi, this is my 4th time , trying to install but it stopped not downloading any more. newly installed XP11. Any solutions.

Greetings all, I would love to know the tools for the sector creation, I have a good knowledge in designing sectors for clients like Euroscope, Aurora, IVAC and Virtual Radar Client. I'm willing to help expand the network. Regards

Hello all! For those of you wishing to help POSCON, I finally have something worth-while to ask of you. I am sure most of you are familiar with OpenStreetMap (OSM): https://www.openstreetmap.org/ We will be using a version of this map for our "web viewer" and I am requesting that each of you take a look at your home airport(s) and make sure that the gates, tarmacs, taxiways, and runways are all up-to-date and have no visible errors. If you want your airport to look correct on the POSCON map, it is important that you make the necessary edits on OSM. Every few months, we will download a new version of OSM and launch it on our own private tile server - these u…

Hi, Could you please add" easyJet Europe" to the ICAO airline list,as i was unable to find it and it creates an "Invalid ICAO Airline" error when transferred from Simbrief. IATA = EC ICAO=EJU CALLSIGN = ALPINE Based = VIENNA Thanks Andy S

hello n'ames is Arnaud is located Alsace,near Lfga? Sorry, my language is terrible.

Hi guys new to the network and forum So I was involved in a group flight last night in the UK. Is there a feedback reporting platform available to report any bugs found etc. Obviously we are still very early and maybe feedback from group flights all using the network would be an advantage for the DEVS. Looking forward to getting involved in the project. Andrew

Hello, I have just joined the community, but I can’t complete the registration process fully. Once I land on the Checklist page, I can’t go any further than just editing my profile and that’s it. Furthermore, I can’t connect my Discord account. When I click on the "Discord registration" link, I land on the registration page, but clicking on the "Connect Discord" button just loops back to the Checklist page. Am I missing something ?

Hi! I m a Alpha-Tester from FS2020 and my question is, its possible this network also for FS2020 working?
