Discord link for tonight’s event

@SkyHighGuys
No qualifications, just come on and have some fun. Once the Discord is open you will be able to navigate around it very easily. If you want a go at controlling, speak with @Harry_Cook who is co-ordinating op spots.

Would be good to see you and some of your staff with us tonight.

Ta,

Louis

Do we need to know taxiways and such? Lol sorry but I’ve never attended one of these so I’m hesitant to do it without proper knowledge. Is it just like normal ATC where they just give you pushback clearance and taxi and that’s it?

@Harry_Cook is gonna nip on in 10 mins and will be able to answer that, he is our VATC expert!

I’ll try and be there

A huge thank you to all whom turned out, I hope you enjoyed our VATC event as much as I did. It was great to see so many pilots join us, who aren’t yet members of the VA.
