Also, none of the online Air Traffic Control (ATC) networks (like VATSIM ) work with the Xbox. This makes visual flight rules (VFR) flying much easier and a whole lot more fun. These apps connect your sim to a network of real-world air traffic controllers.

Theyre there to ensure safety when another pilots vision is restricted, like when youre in a simulated instrument flight. Instead, they monitor the airspace, communicate with air traffic control if necessary, and step in to prevent potential hazards. Unless something goes wrong, its not their job to take over.

Essentially, IFR certification enables pilots to safely operate their aircraft in conditions where flying under VFR (Visual Flight Rules) would be impossible. At Leopard Aviation, we understand how vital this certification is, not only for the safety of flights but also for providing operational flexibility.

You’ll need to obtain a private pilot license, which certifies that you know the basic operations and principles of safe flight. One of the great things about obtaining a PPL is that you can fly pretty much anywhere outside of restricted airspace, as long as it’s under visual flight rules (VFR) conditions.

Last-minute flight plan changes may be done via Eurocontrol while you’re on the ground. At Athens (LGAV) , Air Traffic Control (ATC) will provide directions on where to land and taxi. It’s important to remember that all IFR flight plans need to be filed via Eurocontrol.

An IFR flight plan is similar to a roadmap through the clouds. The flight plan informs the Air Traffic Control (ATC) of your planned course, aircraft capability, and contingency plan. Unlike Visual Flight Rules (VFR), filing an IFR flight plan is mandatory for all IFR flights.

A pilot deviation happens when you violate an FAA regulation or an instruction from Air Traffic Control (ATC). Log a pre-flight briefing with Flight Service to show you’ve done your due diligence as pilot-in-command. Doing this kind of preparation is even more important when flying under Visual Flight Rules (VFR).
