The Scandinavian vACC is the organisazation that unites virtual pilots and controllers in Scandinavia. For new pilots we have a pilot training program that can help you get online.

About the program

Note: As of June 9th, 2009, this part of the website is under amendment. Some of the local airport procedures described in the Pilot Training Program might not be updated. A rewritten version will come online within June 2009.

The Vaccsca pilot program is a training program which is meant to help pilots with online flying. It is important to stress that the vaccsca trainingprogram doesn't teach you how to fly the aircraft. It theaches you how to fly online.

We don't have any tests. You don't have to take any exams. Our objective with the training program is to teach you how to fly online. Once you've learned you can start making your own bad habits.Apart from our "small" training program the Vatsim Pilot Resource Centre offers a much deeper look in to the world of on-line navigation. We encourage you to have a look there for a more through explanation.
