Anthony,

You should find your experience here quite worthwhile. We have many former and current real world air traffic controllers in various ARTCCs within VATUSA.

I'm extremely eager and excited to start training, the biggest problem im having though is not with testing or with "going through the motions", but rather with what im supposed to download and how to properly use it. I have VRC, but as far as for the mic part, what do we use? I've heard mention of something called squawkbox, and then at other times teamspeak. Any way to clear this up?

The Classroom (Controller Tips) / Trouble reaching NY
« on: January 05, 2011, 07:46:06 PM »
I began my startup process this morning in the wee hours, and am now trying to login into NY ARTCC website to gain access to their forums. For some reason it keeps telling me that I have invalid login credentials. I am still using the same login and password given for VATUSA unless this is an error on my part.

Could someone be kind enough to shed some light on this, or point me in the right direction please?

I took the exam today when i signed up i thought that i had to take the exam imediately after.  I went and took the test to no suprise failed it and then i checked my email and found out it was open book and i had 7 days to take it is there anyway to not have to wait 7 days to be able to retake it??????

Im new to vatsim and to vatusa, and figured I'd introduce myself and say goodluck in training for the atc program here. I will give a bit of advice though without trying to sound cocky. I did ATC for real in the Army for 6 years, and one of the first things I was required to learn; was to make sure I understood everything completely before signing onto the mic, keep you head on a swivel buddy and again goodluck. I realize I too am new with tons of questions about vatsim, but if theres anything I can do to help please feel free to contact me.
