When it comes to regions, we are understaffed for sure. I wish to see more frequencies open such as appr/dep/center; this happens sometimes, but not often. I understand most can’t do so due to the different time zones. For global, I think we have plenty of IFATC members to cover an area, but again, we probably won’t have many controlling due to time zone differences.
A training program for IFATC would be quite cool tbh
The already is an IFATC training program sort of thing.
It is something that is self taught (through videos and controlling on playground) there is no hands on instruction like VATSIM
Maybe, we could change the age range for Global IFATC … I don’t know …
Scout is a training program basically. But it’s on your own to find out the basics
Yes there is
This is the first time I’ve heard of it
I would choose both. Its a requirement to look at the video tutorials before proceeding with your IFATC test
Not a training program though nothing is being taught you need to teach yourself then practice is what that is
No. You PM a trainer and they take you for sessions on TS. You start off an they pick up on any mistakes and how to fix it. Without my trainers I wouldn’t of got into IFATC.
I would apply for IFATC but I have to wait 2 years.
Because I’m 12
Ok but even so it’s not starting from the basics it’s mostly self taught. ATC is not easy to learn on here for a number of reasons. Including the most obvious one it’s unrealistic and in a close 2nd it’s commands not chat based atc
