Hi!
I am within my trial period. Have been flying on Vatsim for a while and let me tell you that pilotedge is indeed the next step! I am certainly enjoying my time here!
I would like to know when should I let the controller know I have the current ATIS weather?
I let them know when contacting clearance and ground, but would like to know if I should keep acknowledging it on twr, departure, center and so on...
I hope this network keeps growing so we can have more live traffic. I sure will recommend this option to my fellow sim flyers!
Confirming ATIS information
Re: Confirming ATIS information
Hello!
Definitely keep advising clearance and ground that you have the atis code. The other one you need is approach control. Typically, it's best to check in to approach with the atis code. However, SoCal airspace throws somewhat of a curveball into the mix since it's so large. In other words, the San Diego sector wouldn't care if you have the Burbank ATIS. With that said, though, it's better to say it than not so if you think you might be checking into your arrival airport's approach controller, be sure to check in with the atis code.

Re: Confirming ATIS information
kaichandler, are you asking how to become a real world controller? If so, asking in a thread regarding ATIS is not the best way to go about it. Start a new thread and people will try to point you in the right direction. You might also mention which country you are from, as the guidance needs to be specific to where you want to control. I wouldn't want to take up time giving you an overview of becoming a controller in the US if you aren't going to be controlling here.
