VATSIM (Virtual Air Traffic Simulation Network) is the go-to online flight simulation network, where virtual pilots can connect their flight simulators to a shared network and enjoy realistic communication and procedures by VATSIM's trained virtual Air Traffic Controllers. Since founded in 2001, VATSIM has built up a community of over 100,000 active users, making it the largest online flight ...
Hey there, I was wondering what’s the correct procedure to set up the SELCAL code properly for flying on VATSIM? At the connect window, can I leave “SELCAL Code” blank if I have SEL/xxxx in the flightplan? Or am I required to fill out SELCAL Code and skip it in the SEL/xxxx in the Flightplan in order for VATSIM ATC to send me a SELCAL?

To access the new form, you can use this link. If you use an external tool for flight planning (eg Simbrief, Virtual Airline System, etc) that allows you to prefile on myVATSIM, you can use the link available at the top of the old form ...

The VATSIM United States (VATUSA) division will be trialing real world Common Traffic Advisory Frequency (CTAF) starting March 1st 2024 and lasting up to 6 months. Pilots not under air traffic control will review charts and/or the VATSIM AIP to identify the correct CTAF for their airport. What is CTAF? Common Traffic Advisory Frequencies (CTAF) are frequencies that are used at airports without ...
I used to fly F-18/F-22 IFR flights quite a bit on vatsim. Just like if I'm doing a commercial flight, callsigns like FOX14 and things, from one military base to another.
We are excited to announce that an update to vPilot will be released tonight at 2100 UTC, enabling Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 (MSFS2024) users to connect to the VATSIM network! This update has been a top priority for our development team, ensuring that MSFS2024 pilots can enjoy the immersive experience of flying online with VATSIM. The new version of vPilot has undergone thorough testing ...
Why do you want to listen? If you want to listen to VATSIM only I can't help you. If you're looking to be able to hear ATC in general there is LiveATC. PilotEdge also has a free application for listening to the network here.
