10. ILS Flightsim Weekend Hergiswil

Every year, the Swiss Aviation Interest Group (ILS) organizes the Flightsim Weekend, which will take place on 15th and 16th November 2014 in Hergiswil (Canton Nidwalden). The location at Seehotel Pilatus near the Lake of Lucerne offers a good opportunity to meet both fans and colleagues of the Swiss and international flight simulation scene. Various exhibitors will also be on site, offering an interesting view into the world of virtual aviation. Admission is free!

vACC Switzerland will also partake in this event and will offer in-depth insights into the task area of virtual air traffic controllers. We will explain how the virtual Swiss airspace is being monitored and how pilots are being guided to their destinations. Interested persons can listen in on the frequencies, which makes it easier to follow the events on the radar screens. Additionally, we will be available to answer any question about flying online. During the two days of the event, we also will provide ATC Services at various Swiss airports.

Additionally, there will be some presentations about self-construction simulators, optimizing of computer system for simulation purposes and also an introduction to the virtual flight simulation using VATSIM.

So come and visit us either at Hergiswil, to meet friends of VATSIM, vACC Switzerland and the flight simulator scene or virtually fly to Switzerland.

We look forward to seeing you!

vACC Switzerland TeamSpeak

It's a pleasure for me to announce that we're finally upgrading our TeamSpeak-Server from v2 up to v3. There are a lot new functions implemented, it has a more modern look and the voice quality is improved.

We've waited quite some time, as we wanted to have an easy setup to connect your vatsim-id and your TeamSpeak-3-id together.
There are written guides (available in German and English) which will guide you trough the setup and configuration-pages of your new client.

You can find those guides on our home page in the following categories:
http://www.vacc.ch/de/für_controller/andere_dokumente/
http://www.vacc.ch/de/für_piloten/other_docs/
http://www.vacc.ch/en/for_controllers/other_downloads/
http://www.vacc.ch/en/for_pilots/other_docs/

IMPORTANT: The change from TS2 to TS3 will be on Wed, January 23rd, 00:00 UTC.

You can set up your TS3 installation right now and connect yourself to our new server.
But please keep in mind that TS2 is the coordination platform for controllers before the release/changeover date - thank you.
