Have you made a VATSIM account, but feel intimidated every time you try to speak on the frequency? Or have you yet to make an account in fear that you haven't got what it takes yet? Then this is the event for you!


At busy airports, or events, it can be a little tricky to learn and get used to the pace. To help overcome that VATSIM created the First Wings events, dedicated to helping pilots get used to the phraseology, the procedures, and what is expected of them.


For this edition, we're heading to India! Fly from Kolkata (VECC) to Hyerabad (VOHS), with departures scheduled between 1130 and 1330 UTC.


Both before and during the event experienced and patient controllers and pilots will be on the VATSIM Discord to help answer any questions you have. You may join the discord through https://community.vatsim.net/. If you do not use Discord, VATSIM Supervisors will be on hand during the events, and can at any time be reached via a .wallop command.


To ensure a fun and smooth afternoon for pilots and controllers alike, slots are required! Pilots without a booked flight can and will be delayed. Book at booking.vatsim.net. To give everyone a chance to participate, regardless of their timezone, the event location rotates each month, covering different regions around the world.
