Vatsim Pilot certification program

[OAL260 Christos Makris]

Are there any thoughts of OAV becoming a Authorized Training Organizations for Vatsim in order to achieve Vatsim Pilot Rating here?

[OAL037 George Stergioulas]

I second that thought. Taking into account that we have the infrastructure for pilot training already in place, it seems like a good step towards higher levels of expertise for our pilots and more international accreditation.

[OAL269 Kyprianos Biris]

I second that, it is though exclusively a matter of available human resources, something not easy in hobbies.

[OAL109 Mike Ionas]

I am quoting from the OM § 15.5:

The Instructors of Olympic Air Virtual are accredited examiners from VATSIM and can award the P ratings. The pilots of our virtual airline can be tested as per the VATSIM guidelines and be awarded the VATSIM P rating P1, P2, P3 and P4.
