Exclamation Absolutely EXCELLENT idea!!!!!!

1.get ms flight sim 2000
2.go to rogerwilco.com and d/load the software that lets u chat in audio during games.
3.go on the microsoft gaming zone (zone.com)
and play a multiplayer game on ms 2000.
i have just ordered a pair of pilots headsets for the game and i was on the zone earlier and i entered a game which was using roger wilco software and it was like the real thing with a person acting as atc and 7 or more other pilots in the air!
all talking using the air alphabet and headings vor ifr approaches and everything
this is a GREAT idea to learn more when learning to fly
tell me what you think

Hi there,

This is probably not new but just in case here it goes:

Why don't you pay a visit to

http://www.satco.org/

This is an worldwide organisation responsible for the network that allows flight simulator users worldwide to log into an environment with real-time ATC, real weather, real procedures, etc...

You can also go to the UK division on http://www.satuk.org/

You can also join British Airways Virtual or any other really! Have a look at the list just within the UK http://www.satuk.org/va.asp


If you were excited with the gaming zone then try this! And prepare for a lot of reading!

Good luck!

If this was not anything new then I apologise
