Practice your aviation communication skills with VATSIM

Looking to enhance your training experience along with others in the flight-simulation community?

Virtual Air Traffic Simulation Network (VATSIM) is a nonprofit organization that operates an online flight-simulation network where users are able to fly aircraft in Prepar3D or direct traffic as an air traffic controller. VATSIM adheres as closely as possible to real-life aviation procedures and radio phraseology, which can function as a training aid for pilots striving to enhance their skills in radio communications.

PlaneJoe will guide you through the necessary setup to use VATSIM with Prepar3D and will have you practicing your aviation communication skills after a few steps.
