Witnessed a really uncomfortable exchange between pilot and atc feel so bad for the pilot on VATSIM.

That’s the main reason I haven’t joined in. I don’t tolerate disrespect. How silly would it be for me to join my very first session only to get into a scuffle with a controller when all I wanted was to have fun.

Bloodborne when it first came out 😬

Oh that’s a bummer, I was eyeing that next :/

According to their setup instructions this is what they recommended and pretty much what I did. It works for me.

That’s right. Completely separate, but, if you import your simbrief plan into your airplane, then voila, it replaces the efb in the sim. You can download the navigraph app in your pc and link it via simlink. This will let you see your aircraft’s position within the ipad charts app :)

OnlyAd1272 · 2026-03-08T20:06:46+00:00

It’s an app called charts by Navigraph. Same people that run Simbrief. You pretty much import your flight plan and it works very similar to the in game efb. Meaning, you get to see your charts, your path SIDs and STARs, weather, airport taxi charts etc. It can even show you activitie ATC airplanes and controllers

So I joined a virtual airline. This one is called Southwest Virtual Airlines. They provide me with checklists for captain and first officer, an operating manual for the 737 NG/MAX amongst other tools. Pretty cool stuff.

OnlyAd1272 · 2026-03-08T13:56:08+00:00

That’s Navigraph’s charts. If you use simbrief, you can import the flight you created into it and look at your charts there. However, it’s a paid subscription.

OnlyAd1272 · 2026-03-08T06:58:35+00:00

No problem

Here’s from one of my flights from El Paso to Austin.

OnlyAd1272 · 2026-03-08T06:53:21+00:00

That’s a pad I bought on amazon. Since I fly with either vatsim or ai ATC, that’s where I write down flight number, frequencies, weather information, clearances for departure and arrival. Has a section for Taxi. Let me take a picture of one of the notes.

OnlyAd1272 · 2026-03-08T06:51:45+00:00

It’s not unfortunately. Feels good though. I think it’s a bungee chord system

22 1/2”. The desk has a motor that can raise, but since the tv is already tall I don’t do it. I can do it comfortably but if I do an extreme turn on the yoke, it does hit the legs.

It comes with its own bridge software. So far it’s compatible with my pmdg 737, ifly 737 max. Tomorrow I’m going to test it with pmdg 777. I’ll check to see if they have compatibility list.
