    Hi There. My name is Wycliffe Barrett I have been a flight simmer for 25yrs plus and a member of VATSIM since 2005, I have over 5000hrs controlling and a couple of thousand flying hours on VATSIM. I'm c3 rated and at the present time I am also a VATSIM supervisor. Ive held several staff roles on VATSIM including DCRM, Membership Manager and ATC Trainer/Mentor. I have a youtube channel dedicated to XPLANE as well as A facebook group with a combined membership of 6000k.  As a beta tester of {POSCON I am very excite to see this new network and I hope that it will be released to the public soon.

    Recruiting Divisions

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Every country that has been requested will be made available as a division for members to develop, and the Division Manager's position will be announced when we are ready. We have not yet reached a point of recruitment at that level. Appreciate the enthusiasm, and we will get to that point (hopefully) in near future!

    It shouldn't have any conflict with your connection to the network. 

    Only thing to keep in mind though, everyone operating on the network is expected to adhere to the published pilot policies & follow RW procedures. 

    Ex. At my home airport, runway 23 is used primarily for arrivals and 05 for departures, but AI traffic & sim ATC may use different combination. When you are connected to POSCON, you are expected to use the rwy being used by other pilots, not AI. Same goes for taxi, approaches, SID/STAR etc. 

    Enjoy! 

    Sector File Building Tool

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    there is a lot more to developing sectors than just creating sector files, and a great team of individuals is currently working behind the scene! With that said, when we get to the point of creating sector files to aid what is already being worked on, we will revisit this forum. Expect more info in near future.

     

    In the mean time, please take a look at the following post

    Curiously, will there be drones for simulating GA traffic flying under VFR?

    If so, will they be capable of following official visual approach/departure routes and circuit patterns at uncontrolled airports as well as communicate with and avoid other nearby traffic?

    drones will fly whatever route they are flying IRL based on the live feed, and controllers will have the ability to vector them around traffic. When in uncontrolled airspace, as of right now, drones will not communicate (voice) with us (pilots connecting to the network). That's about all the info we can share at the moment. This is the development for a later stage after the launch. But those are good questions and something we will definitely be revisiting when ready.

    There is a very good youtube channel (fd2sim), presented by a real 738 pilot, and he says that at his company they will set the turn rate knob to 10 above FL300.

    Zibo has already adopted that same procedure, so if you are flying Zibo above FL300, even the AP will turn at 10 degrees maximum. That was implemented recently, I believe.

    Cheers

    Wouldn't LNAV override the turn rate knob in all phases of flight? My understanding is that in heading mode you can control bank by setting the knob, but when LNAV is engaged, autopilot will adjust bank up to 30 deg to stay on track. I am sure lift factor is built into the bank calculation at high altitudes.
