Tom, thank you for your incredible dedication to our hobby over the years. I'm sure you will be sorely missed around the VATUSA camp!

Also, congratulations to Ira on the new position. I'm sure it'll be an adventure!

This is why I wanted to bring this up. Seeing that we (VATSIM) still support everything going back to FS9, those VORs, as far as we are concerned, would still exist. When they do get dropped, for the sake of realism, should we drop them as well, or continue with them to accommodate the legacy simulators?

BL.

It's an interesting point you raise. At ZTL, we've always strived to follow real world procedures as much as possible. That being said, I don't think we can drop these navaids and expect everyone to follow the new procedures instantly. For one thing, some people don't get AIRAC updates. We still get people filing departure and arrival procedures which are 4 or 5 revisions out of date. We just accommodate them as best as possible.

General Discussion / Where to find the vZTL .sct2 Files
« on: August 17, 2011, 12:23:02 PM »
You are correct. One of our previous Facility Engineer worked for the FAA and was granted access to all SOP's, LOA's, Sector Files etc. and allowed to visit ATL, A80 and ZTL en-route. However, the FAA stated that we MUST only allow members of the vZTL ARTCC access to the files. I don't understand why, as anyone can join our ARTCC, copy the files and then leave, but we try to follow their rules as much as possible. After all, the FAA could squash us like a bug if we didn't...

Of course, there is nothing in our agreement with them about asking for the files from a member of the ARTCC... need I say more?  

Ohh and just to add... I personally do not agree with the agreement... however I was not DATM at the time it was made
