IMPORTANT NOTES:- - Not all controllers use CPDLC (yet!) & is not a requirement for your aircraft to use it to fly Oceanic on VATSIM. - Position reports are not mandatory (as IRL and on VATSIM, controllers can see where you are now using satellites!) - but, you can make/send them if you wish. - If you fly a NAT Track that is not longer valid (see video), controllers cannot clear you via this 'NAT track' but instead, will treat it as a random route - Once in Oceanic airspace, SQUAWK code 2000 should be used - The easiest way to file your Oceanic clearence is to use the NatTrak website shown in the video NatTrak Website (current NAT Trakcs):-- nattrak.vatsim.net/tracks Thanks to all (especially Verbjimtim) for helping to answer questions & make things clear.

Hello from vatsim oceanic controller, we actually asume that everyone entering airspace is ADS-B equipped so no position reports are required. If pilots want to make them we ofc allow, but its not necessary.
Thanks for another great tutorial!!! I've been meaning to ask for this!

Thanks for this! Currently building up the courage to fly a transatlantic flight for CTP, slot pending. (CTP won’t be my first transatlantic, that’ll be silly 😆). This will be revisited as it’s very clear. Thank you.

Great video however I believe there is are some information that is incorrect when doing Oceanic crossings when on VATSIM. 1 thing I didn't hear you mention is that you should be squawking 2000 after being in Oceanic airspace for 30 mins

Thanks for the tutorial! Haven't flown oceanic in a hot minute, but sure will do in the near future. From what I can remember I once was told not to reach the entrypoint before a certain time. And I remember to have set the time in the MCDU of either the PMDG 747 or 777. Do I remember correctly? and if so - how did I do that? :D

At about 14:25 can I check what you said? I heard '...above FL550', which seems a bit off. I've probably just misheard or misunderstood your meaning though

Hello , Is that really how it works on VATSIM ? because unfortunately many controllers over Atlantic do not accept CPDLC , only voice or web clearence available . I don't know why, since we already have ACARS system modelled in 777 , or do any of you have any better info about it ? .
@Easyjetsimpilot5 ай бұрын
@@GodfatherCZ1 the use of CPDLC is at the discretion of the controller.

Heya, ACARS isn't supported at the moment on VATSIM due to software limitations. We are, however, looking to see if we are able to implement it in our controller clients. For now, nattrak will simulate our ACARS operation in VATSIM.

Is there a conventional methode of HF communication and SELCAL for message contacts from ATC? Or is there only VHF and CPDLC for clearence in the 777?
@Easyjetsimpilot5 ай бұрын
Unfortunately, VATSIM cannot replicate HF.
@funkyspyspy5 ай бұрын
@Easyjetsimpilot Correction to this, VATSIM doesn't support HF radios, but it does a nifty trick with VHF where you tune into a VHF frequency that is aliased to a HF, and when tuned in range of a controller on that frequency, it tunes into HF on the AFV backend. You won't be able to see the HF frequency yourself, but your pilot client is actually tuned to HF.😊

Hello. i have question about active oceanic tracks.. SimBrief calculated KJFK MERIT HFD PUT ENE CANME DULBA OVIXI YNA LOMSI 55N050W 59N040W 61N030W 62N020W 62N010W ERSER IPTOK EKTAR ADOPI ENGM Site above has no info about track at LOMSI.... and second question.. if track inactive i should wait untill it become active? ofc it is not problem in real life, flight schedules are made according that situation. But in simulator.. if i cant sycronise my free time for play with that shedule table i cant cross ocean?
@Easyjetsimpilot5 ай бұрын
It's not a problem, this would just be a Random Route - which is fine. All it means is when requesting your oceanic clearance, you have to report EVERY waypoint across the Ocean instead of just saying 'NAT C' for example.
