I Just Reached Grade 3🔥

[TheRealOne]

I just passed 50,000 XP on Infinite Flight, which combined with my 102 landings and 65 flying hours means I have now reached grade 3!

I’m not going to fly in the ES just yet, first I want to review the guides and read some general skill improvement posts here to brush up a bit on my flying etiquette before I grace the expert server skies tomorrow.

Thanks to @Waxyscorpion308 for recommending KDEN to spam landings at, I couldn’t have done this without your advice!

See y’all in the expert server 😎🔥

Common Expert Server Mistakes And How To Fix Them

Hello everyone! Many of you may already know me, but if not, I’m Jinco, ATC Trainer and Appeals Team member. Throughout the years I’ve been part of IFATC, I was able to notice many big and small details that live in the Expert Server skies. In this server, pilots should be professional, however, we as IFATC controllers often see inappropriate behaviour that should take place on the Casual Server only. I see already multiple topics similar to mine, but they are quite old and I wanted to let the …

I’ve already read that, but I’ll definitely review it again!

A piece of advice: Controllers are not mean people! Ask questions if you need! :)

Happy flying!

Same here, just reached grade 3 less than a week ago, flew only once on the expert server a few days ago, the experience is much nicer there with the ATC. Sadly the game crashed right when I touched down.

I find the ATC thread and spending some time on the training ATC server very helpful. Had more than 1000 operations before I tried to fly in the expert server, a bit over the top I must admit but it made it less stressful for me.

You’re gonna have fun!!!

[TheRealOne]

I’m not too worried about violations, I think I got most of the rules down packed

The Expert Server is lacking expertise - let's fix that

Today, I was reading @Jose_Oscana’s Please Follow Arrival Chart Speed Restrictions, and I found the following claims: These two claims were both made in relation to the idea that the expert server doesn’t feel like it deserves to be called “expert” anymore. As a member of the IFATC organization, Jose was trying to request that pilots would simply follow airspeeds on arrival charts - which, might I add, would make it easier for people like him to enhance us pilots’ experience on the ES. As a p…

And don’t make me put something that you do on it…😭🙏

Thank you twin 🔥 we will definitely be doing many flights together 💪

[TheRealOne]

I’ve read that so many times bruh it’s not even funny

[Anthony_Gulluscio]

Big congratulations @TheRealOne ! Now you can fly with the rest of us, I trust you’ll do good with realism considering all the lessons I’ve gave you ;)

[TheRealOne]

Specifically with realism at JFK lol 😭😭

For my first flight out of JFK, I’m thinking straight out departure from 4L. What do you think ;)

[Anthony_Gulluscio]

I think I thought you where serious for a second and I dropped my phone in shock
