http://www.vacc-sag.org/?PAGE=airport_overview VACC Germany charts (VATSIM, UP TO DATE)

https://blackswan.ch/northatlantictracks North Atlantic Tracks (NAT's), showing current and past ones. (VATSIM, UP TO DATE)


Alternatively, you can make an account for free with EuroControl, and access all charts for Europe using that: https://eadbasic.ead-it.com/cms-eadbasic/opencms/en/login/ead-basic/ (once logged in, go to "AIP Library") (REAL WORLD)


The above listed charts are always up to date to the current AIRAC, however, do not use VATSIM charts for real world flying.

Please NOTE: when a VACC has it's own charts, these will still be up to date, however, most VACC's nowaday's will point to the eAIP directly. The German IFR eAIP is only available through EuroControl, thus it's easier to use the VACC Germany charts.

I'd like to connect to Vatsim from FG.
I created a Vatsim account and followed the tutorial here to install the software.
The first problem I have is that I'm already using the FG telnet interface for a custom joystick. Is there any way to use sqawkgear and my custom joystick together?

Seems to work with multiple telnet ports so no conflicts

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

Well, dear IAHM-COL I am not feeling good to tell that I am starting flying VATSIM soon. I'll be a member of MP still. But I am feeling bored from 777 and some other planes. I want to do more realistic and good flights. I have NAVIGRAPH procedures and today after sudden flight from KSFO to EGLL with real time landing on EGLL with the real plane of UA109 flight I decided - why don't I try to bring the new level of realism in my flying and go to VATSIM. For 6 hours today I was trying to connect this network successfully, but did not make it. Tomorrow I'll receive some help in that matter. Then I am going to do my first flight in VATSIM across the atlantic. Prob. I'll fail with all that communication, but still I am hoping I'll have good experience. Not that I mind Jomo and his service in FGMP, but only one ATC in the hole sim is not enough for me. I am concentrating now on this.
After I successfully graduated money to bought myself a piano for constant practise I am going to bought myself a better computer. Prob. than I'll try other simulators and expand my not so high level of acknowledge about flying in them for more realism and to gadure more followers in my new youtube channel. Still this hopes and dreams are only hopes and dreams, but I hope I'll make it someday.

Hey, got one question. Often happens that my sim crashed during VATSIM flights. When that happens I am canceling my flight plan and often change the route with other. Is that affects my license?? Or not?
