Quote from: Stephen Panzl
For a long time I have admire the Beechcraft 1900D in th Gulfstream International Airlines colors (continental commuter), but as I looked around vatsim I didnt find any VA that dedicated them selfs only Gulfstream operations. I was going to post this to see if anyone would be intrested in flying for a va that dedicates it self to flying around florida and the bahamas and a few flights up in the midwest, and also flying turbo-props. any thoughts on if a va like this would survive.
Thanks Stephen

I am in the final processes of opening Virtual New Mexico Airlines, a couterpart to the real airline. They fly Cessna Grand Caravans to a few destinations within New Mexico & Texas. I have no intentions to go big school with this airline, as there are plenty of those.

see what you think of it:

The Control Room Floor / Vis Ranges and VRC

I wouldn't worry too much about the bandwidth issue. From what I understand the four small vis centers vs. one large vis center use the same amount of bandwidth. In ZDV I use four, each of 235 miles, and it works quite well. You can focus in on more of the areas you want, and all of the areas you need, whereas with one giant circle of visibility you often get more ARTCC/TRACON border coverage that either extends way too far from the border or way too close to the border.

I also use 4 vis points at 215nm. it allows to cover the entire airspace, but keeps the focus on where i need it, so im not seeing EMER's in DFW or Denver

The Control Room Floor / Color Profiles

Continuing a thread form the VATSIM Forums, does anyone have any cool or realistic color profiles? I'd like to see what anyone has. Also, if possible, please post a screenshot of it also. Thanks!

zipped up is what I have. Its a standard DSR scope that was reviewed by Nate Johns to be pretty close. I've seen some ZAB scopes recently and I think i've made an accurate attempt.

The Flight Deck / Squawkbox Update packages
« on: February 22, 2010, 12:15:15 AM »
Found this on the VATSIM forums. A guy is updating models for Squawkbox, and has been releasing them as of these past couple weeks. He seems to be working like mad to get them out. More power to him.

http://www.colsquawk.webege.com/eng/descrip.html

The idea is fanastic, however the catch is the models only work if both parties (you and others around you) have the same pack installed. So naturally, word should get out fast to get this update.

The Control Room Floor / Headsets
« on: February 15, 2010, 10:21:46 AM »
Now I was able to pick up the SHS2355 off of a guy on ebay (rcoe79) for about 70$. Dhruv Kalra from ZMP saw this and talked to the ebay guy and picked up the other 3 for 50$ + s/h.

I emailed the ebay guy and he says he would be able to pick up a few more on the cheap. We'll see what comes of it.

the SHS2355 has been worth every penny to say the least, and my H31 should be in tomorrow, i'm psyched!

The Control Room Floor / Interphone (and VSCS)
« on: November 05, 2009, 04:11:54 PM »
I was wondering what people's stand on using the Interphone is, including the VSCS program for those who know of it.

the chat is fine, and so is using an external program (ie: ventrilo or teamspeak), But i'd like to take the reality a step higher.

The Control Room Floor / VRC help!

Not sure how to get to LAN set up in the first place.

if your talking about how to get to the setup page of your router, do these 2 things

1: (XP) Start > Run > CMD > at the MSDOS prompt, type ipconfig
1: (vista) Start > CMD in search bar > at the MSDOS prompt, type ipconfig
2: copy down your 'Default Gateway' (usually 192.168.0.1 - but ALWAYS ends in .1)

open your favorite internet browser, and type that address you wrote down into the http bar

at this point routers can vary on model, some will pop open a name/password prompt, others will have name/password prompts in the browser. and some won't have a login at all. the website www.portforward.com at this point will usually have the default login listed if you haven't changed it.

from there find your route make and model (find your EXACT model for best results) and follow the steps from there.

more help can always be found here.
