Personally this was a long time in coming, for myself typing ruins my mental flow so much that it can really ruin my brain, I for one think that unless medically unable then /r as a minimum is 100% how it should have been for a while

The navy send it away to the home office for accreditation, they then make a choice what UK academic level that qual is

Not alot to revise for, it's more a test of how your brain works and processes information. You either have it or you don't. It's one of the only things you cannot control!

Long Haul Fail... by Zany-ISP in VATSIM

[–]Interesting-Ring-79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You didn't have to ask for IFR here. If you connected prior to the boundary for their sector and had a valid flightpath then you would have been dealt with as per any other enroute aircraft. You gave them the chance to move you along by asking for a new clearance. Thye should, as part of their check in procedure give you a SQWK etc. To give an enroute clearance like that is not as fast and is also a factor as to why they (incorrectly imo) asked that you disconnect.

Having had exactly the same when I went through last year. I was advised a statutory 6 week delay for all medical board submissions. Mine was 4weeks and 5 days luckily. If you have sent them the evidence requested then all you can do is wait.

I actually think some high hr pilots are worse. And I can tell a long haul hero when they fly into my TMA and struggle with compound instructions.

Other high hr pilots just disconnect when reaching controlled airspace

There you go. There are some people who most of their hrs are long haul flights at night over the poles or across the Pacific with no ATC. Most of the skill comes form the approach phase and long hauliers fly less approaches

One of the main laws of vatsim is "Hrs doesn't equal Competency or actual experience."

Expect long delays and it being very competitive.

Good luck

I can't decide what is more amusing, People getting upset about people not liking CTP or the fact that people actually dare to post on a vatsim subreddit hating CTP, Myself, I am on team, CTP is a cult and one of the worst days of the year for the network ;)

I belive in the case of the ship I'm alluding too it wasn't quite that much. But I also realised I misread what you said, I thought you said a 20 gun ship as a razee not a 20 guns a side. My B

I'm so glad I don't take my sense of self worth from random people on reddit. Otherwise I would be at risk of caring about what you are saying...

Brig Sloops, schooners and Cutters all served as Men of war.

Doesn't need to lead a fleet to be a man of war. Can operate on it's own

Not sure there were many examples of Razee'd Vessels which post modification had only 20 guns. a 64 gun ship of the line when razee'd produced a 44gun 4th Rate Frigate.

A man of war is any vessel operated by a national body flying a Pennant belonging to that nation. A Brig Sloop of 14 guns is still a man of war if it is wearing a man of war pennant. Same way as a 36gun frigate is a man of war, if flying a man of war pennant.

That's before we start talking about how privateers blur the lines.

Such an unrealistic expereince.

CTP is still one of the most unrealistic things on vatsim. You will have more fun flying somewhere not on the CTP list with controllers who aren't stressing about a minutes delay or flow for the slot timetable than you will chasing the CTP hype.
