I subscribed to the AOA Training for the 777, excellent material as usual.

although I have one question, if someone also subscribed he can hear the ATIS info. this is the most detailed information that I have ever heard.

does anyone know the source of it? is it a weather addon engine .... or what has been used to provide these info

 

thank you for your help

 

already asked nick and chris in AOA but no reply

I think they do most of their flights on VATSIM. In fact my voice can probably be heard in one of the NGX training flights, which landed at KLAS while I was controlling APP.

Hi Remy,

 

This ATIS was provided to us by the Dutch VACC - they have a tool that generates an ATIS soundfile based on a library of recorded words from the real life version. 

I have their 747 Training DVD and their Lvl-D 767 DVD I bought a few years ago

 

But when I went to check their 777 materials, I am not clear as to what the product is. What are they selling? Even when I clicked on buy and its asking for my CC, I am not clear what I am buying.

 

Basic MArketing 101: What is the product package?

 

1) Is it a a set of DVDs/Bluray disks?

 

2) IS it a subscription for taking these training on line and if so for how long?

 

3) Is a downloadable video files? if so for how long I would have to download all the 35 or so hours of videos? Files sze and speed at which I could download?

 

Surprisingly, this basic information is not available front and center.  

 

Mom and pop stores (Most FSX vendors) focus on the product build, understandably they don't give sufficient time for marketing and selling. 

 

And we as a community need to nudge them a bit.

ActiveSky got this feature, if you are using then tune frequency.. its somewhere in ActiveSky manual and you will hear the ATIS of airport where you are

I would go ahead and look again. www.777Training.com is vague, but you aren't actually entering card information there. The checkout pages themselves are incredibly clear as to what you get, how it's delivered, and so on, don't to how many minutes of video you get. 

 

So I invite you to look at the bullet points again. It's very, very clear.

Certainly not as realistic, though. But it's great. 

Unfortunately, ActiveSky cannot give you runway info-just weather.
