General Discussion / SERVERS DOWN?
« on: April 14, 2012, 07:32:21 PM »
Quote from: DAVID MACFARLANE
I noticed recently that the USA-W and USA-N servers are down. Is this due to the problems of hosting I was reading about last week or so?
They both seem to be up, but only North has users logged in and West has an outrageously high ping.

The Classroom (Controller Tips) / Controlling the Arrivals

Gavin, Got no problem with vectors off the last couple of fixes.  

We do it too. Controller to pilot: ...Vectors to final. (A valid reason).

It's when I get pulled off way earlier because the controller has no confidence in other pilots ability to fly the STAR. I'll use the BYP5 arrival into DFW for example. It would be similar to like being pulled off at intersection MAMEE on the BYP5.
Alright, I see haha. That does seem rather ridiculous, as I assume that isn't even in the TRACON yet. Thanks for clearing it up!

STARS in ZOB are almost never used to their full extent in either RW or on VATSIM. We pull aircraft off a few fixes early for vectoring purposes and the last few points are rarely used.

The Control Room Floor / limited instructors/How do I advance?

This is mostly an ARTCC issue in my understanding. Some locations have a higher Student:Teacher ratio than others, so the quickness of training varies. Since you are at vZAN you can only train there. No other ARTCC can promote you according to the VATUSA visiting policies, and I believe the SOP. Just be a little patient and they'll work with you. Good luck!

Plus I do believe the password change is just to another random number and I think the OP would like a custom password.

We had Noah recording Denver Approach and Marcus recording Denver Center. What you have to do is open a new window in VRC, set it to what you want to record, then set the recording software (presumably CamStudio..not sure what they use) to record that window.
Thank you very much Harold!

How do you manage to record your radar? Sorry for the obvious question.

Don't quote me, but I think http://www.swavirtual.com/ is the most popular of the group. I may be wrong.
