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 will be flying in Southeast Asia. Fly between Singapore-Changi (WSSS) to Soekarno-Hatta (WIII), departing either airport from 1200 to 1400 UTC, and arriving between 1400 to 1600 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 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.

These events will from now on be held on a regular basis, with one edition occurring on the second weekend of each month. To allow everyone to participate, regardless of their timezone, the location of the event rotates every month, passing through all corners of the World.

Event NOTAMS: Ensure that your AIRAC data is at least cycle 2403, due to major changes in airspace structure and procedures for Singapore that takes effect from 21 Mar 24. If you have outdated AIRAC data, please do not be afraid to inform the controllers as they will have a alternative arrangement in place for you.
