Flying on VATSIM

AeroTexas has long been a supporter of the Virtual Air Traffic Simulation network.

The Virtual Air Traffic Simulation Network, known as VATSIM.net or "VATSIM" was created in 2001 by a group of individuals who came together with a goal of creating an organization which truly served the needs of the flight simulation and online air traffic control community. With an eye towards more than just providing a network of computers for users to log into, VATSIM is an online community where people can learn and, at the same time, enjoy the pastimes of flight simulation and air traffic control simulation all while making new friends from all over the world.

AeroTexas is currently recognized by VATSIM as a partner airline.

VATSIM is not just for individuals who have experience in online flight simulation and ATC. It is perfect for both the new user, and the long time "simmer". For pilots, you'll be able to fly with radar service by air traffic controllers who issue instruction and assistance in all phases of flight from getting your clearance to arriving at your destination airport.

One of the requirements for recognition as a partner airline is that at least ten pilots on our roster need to fly on VATSIM in the last 90 days. Unfortunately we do not currently meet that requirement. I would therefore encourage all of our members to log a flight on VATSIM using your ATX id as soon as possible.
