New and looking around seeing kind of slow. My name is Mike and I have been into FSX for a couple years now off and on. Never got into computers till then, the library was pretty much it for me if I needed some info. Any free time from work was spent out in the woods on the trails so please only expect me to slowly catch on. I have completed one flight successfully with the VAFS and it was quite enjoyable. Love the bush flights, the remoter the better but do enjoy commercial flights too.
Anyway, glad to be here. Looking forward to many future flights and maybe we will increase in number but I have to admit that I am not one to be able to help much as far as getting new members since I do not belong to any chat rooms or anything else. Sorry. Flight Simming is the only reason I built this PC. Have tried a couple games here and there but have found no interest. But I will try and help all I can if I knew how.
On teamspeak? I understand that multiplayer is gone now from FSX? Any other ways?
THanks

Hello Mike!
Ways you can help us is to email friends, advertise on forums, and stuff like that.
Flying on VATSIM also helps because it shows our VA out in the Virtual Air Traffic. And just flying is the main thing! The more you fly, the better. I have a pilot who has about 160 hours in 2 months just because he was devoted to the VA and wanted to see it grow (He is VPR now! hahaha).
Anyway it's good to have you with us! Sometimes, it may seem quiet and uneventful around here sometimes, but that is not always the case. If you can help us get more pilots then we will have more activity.
And TeamSpeak is a GREAT way to get to know everybody. You should get on with a mic and chat with us! And if you are a bit "sluggish" of the idea of talking to strangers, well I can tell you that not everybody is a hack trying to rob you! LOL ;-)
I used to NEVER go on TS with a mic until someone told me what it was about and now I get on it ALL THE TIME!
Anyway I hope your stay with us is great!

THanks. Can't seem to get any routes to pull up either on the site or the VAFS. Just a glitch going on right now?

Hmmm....
I will look into it as soon as I can (In an hour or so). Everything works fine for me and the staff.

Does seem to be working now. Might be something on my end browser as there are some sites I noticed that would not pull up that always come up no problem. Schedule seems fine now.

Ok. I think it was a problem with our rank setup. You are allowed to fly DC-3's right?

Yes, DC3 shows up. I am sure I also saw a few jetliners show for flight but I know enough that that wouldn't be possible for a first officer, sorry, trainee. Just here to have a little fun is all. Oh, and getting a headset and will get TS installed once it comes in.

Right, right, Jr. officer is what I meant. Yes, flight together sounds good but how is that done? Vatsim? I do have an account but never flown nor have had success at the software settings for FSInn. I have only done multiplayer on the FSX but it no longer functions I believe.

We would do it on VATSIM and Mike (BHK002 - COO) could help you with FSINN as he uses it. I can help you with general VATSIM stuff as I use it all the time and I am training for ATC at KMEM and I have training for P1 and P2 on VATSIM. I do not have any of the ratings yet, but I am really close to getting them.

That would be great. I have gone on as an observer but nothing else though I have wanted to do some flying I could not get FSInn to work properly besides I have no idea how to get started. I should be up on TS by the weekend. Maybe Mike will be on and I can get FSInn setup and meet up with you.

If you want to ask Mike anything, his email is: knex485@gmail.com Sometimes he does not answer emails as he is not a "checking emails everyday" freak like myself but you will get in touch with him by email.
I am almost S1 at ZME.
