Oh that sounds exciting! I am reading some guides now.Originally Posted by cocaine
yeah, you get trained and stuff. thats the purpose of mentors. you'll have someone to guide you through it. you're expected to read up on basic stuff for your part 1 OBS>STU exam (its a theory test, /20, you need 17 or more to pass). then after you've passed your theory, you'll be assigned with a mentor (or a few, it varies) and they'll go online with you as you start off on a ground position. then you'll have a practical exam on a certain position (usually tower) and you'll be assessed on your ability. if the examiners and rtsm think you're good enough, you'll be validated and become an S1
sorry that was a large chunk of text haha, but if you need any help feel free to PM me, i've been an stansted/luton tower controller for a year and a bit, and i've had 4 or 5 sessions on heathrow tower as well.
Does anyone know where I can get UK radar for ASRC?

ASRC isn't widely used. VRC is more commonly used, and really easy to use. However I use euroscope, which, although is tricky to set up, is a wonderful radar client.
-
So that is Euroscope?
What ever will be the most benifitial to me I will dedicate my time into installing and getting used to.
I really appreciate the help cocaine!
-
you should use VRC first, its very user friendly, but if you've got vista, you'll have no choice but to use euroscope
-
Well, I have Euroscope installed and its asking for the sector file.
From reading the Euroscope guide I need to edit 2 parts on the runway files.
For now i'll try VRC and then see about Euroscope in the future.
Still finding trouble getting the sector files for VRCLast edited by efq; 07-02-2009 at 11:26 PM.

If I can vaguely remember, some Adam guy gave me a link to one file and it covered the whole of the UK but this was over a year ago. Do I have to download all these files 1 by 1?
-
Apologies for the double post.
I downloaded a UK sector and its working fine, I can see aircraft and towers and I can see the transmissions between towers and aircraft. I'll be watching this all day tommorow whilst reading among a lot of guides!
