Rammed Gatwick Ground | VATSIM ATC Controlling | 1000 Sub Special - Part 1

Welcome to another video on the channel! Today we have a 1 hour part of a longer stream, where things got particularly heated in the evening rush on the VATSIM network.
A special thanks for 1000 subscribers! Thank you to everyone for their chats, messages, comments, and views, especially during the hard times, like my exams and personal life issues. I hope these videos continue to help and entertain people. This is part 1 out of a multi-part special series for 1000 subs, keep an eye out for part 2!

Kerkyra is Corfu in Greek, so both of you were technically right 😅

[@ethanlam27]

its so crazy how you guys do all this but im still to scared to talk to the atc 😂😂

[@thevatsimcontroller]

Potentially a beginners VATSIM guide on the way 🤨

[@JohnVanderbeck]

I know right?! haha. I've managed a single VATSIM flight so far, and that was a simple VFR pattern and I felt drained after it all. It isn't even JUST the communications with ATC but its that you aren't alone anymore so you feel so much more pressure in all aspects of the flight not to mess up, and to do everything perfectly. I swear my landings degrade by 50% just because of the pressure.

I am a bit disappointed, I was actually there at 22:00 with ezy52lm and I am not on youtube 😢 But I am happy to see you on Gatwick again! 😊

[@thevatsimcontroller]

Apologies; this is just the busiest part of the controlling. People tend to not watch the quiet bits where there are only a couple of aircraft online :)

[@cpallot1]

Another great video!

[@thevatsimcontroller]

Glad you enjoyed it!

@@thevatsimcontroller Out of interest, what does the '78. E' mean on the SPad? BAW983 😉

[@thevatsimcontroller]

@@cpallot1 The number is the stand number. The letter after the dot denotes which direction the aircraft is pushing in. So in this example, the aircraft is pushing from stand 78, facing east :)

[@keresztesbotond740]

Any reason why you don't point out mistakes to the pilots? E.g.: Parking at the wrong gate or pushing facing the wrong direction

[@thevatsimcontroller]

It is inefficient and wastes time on a busy frequency

[@HDmatu-qz9bx]

What is the req plugin called?

[@thevatsimcontroller]

I believe it’s VCH.
