Introducing ATC Group Flights Join us for POSCON's ATC Group Flights that feature live enroute, approach and tower air traffic control services available on the Positive Control Network. 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. How will it work? During the date and time we publish, we will provide guaranteed ATC services for certain city pairs. What is the best way to participate? Ideally, users will join the published route with everyone else using Instrument Flight Rules (IFR); however, this is NOT required! The goal is for you to practice your phraseology and enjoy the most realistic IFR experience on any network available. Here are some suggestions though: File a flight plan through the HQ system and spawn in at a gate or ramp. IFR flight is preferred, but VFR will not be discouraged either. Contact ATC and obtain your clearance. Only departure, enroute, destination air traffic control services will be available. For example: if the event is KATL to KJFK and you decide to fly from KCLT to KJFK, there will be NO ATC available at KCLT. You may contact ENROUTE ATC once airborne. This is a temporary modification to the "top-down" model many pilots are used to at legacy online flight simulation networks. We are doing it this way so that our controllers can devote sufficient time to testing the air traffic control software. Where can I find more information? Check this forum thread often to find route, event times, and preferred routing. ATC information will also be posted in the forum as well. We recommend "notify me of replies" to forum post to get email notifications of new posts. I am a newbie, can I attend? Of course! These events are designed to accommodate all experience levels. Attention Microsoft Flight Sim 2020 Users! Make sure multiplayer is turned off within the sim or you will see traffic that is not connected to POSCON. REMEMBER: All pilots must monitor Guard frequency on Comm #2 unless you need to briefly change to check weather. MAKE SURE TO UPDATE YOUR PILOT CLIENTS BEFORE OPERATING IN THIS EVENT!
