Ok guys...I've been a flyer on line for some time now, and I'm ready (i think!) to try some controlling.....I've tried clicking on the pro-controller on line manual..."how to" links, but all are broken...I can't find any text anywhere that simply describes what I need to do to get on line as multi player controller.....Can some one please give me the quick "idiots guide!" or point me to a link that works which describes what I must do....Many thanksMon

Hihttp://www.btronic.de/HTMLDOCS/PCE/page1.htmlthat should work.

Thanks...that kinda helps.....I'm still a bit puzzled about the setting up for a multiplayer game.If I want to control Manchester,UK....do I simply connect to a VATSIM server, and then any aircraft that flies into Manchester will come up on my screen, or do I have to start a multiplayer game in FS2002 and minimise it......HELP!!!!it seems far more difficult to use than when you fly as a pilot...!!

still none the wiser....I'm desperate to start controlling....please help someone....!!!!!

Yes, all you do is connect to a VATSIM server. FS does not even need to be running and, in fact, may not be connected to the system while you're on ProController.Be aware, however, that many divisions have formal training and certification programs that you must join in order to control. You mentioned the UK and they definitely fall in this category. Check the UK web site (link available from www.vatsim.net).cz

Thanks very much Richard !!
