Resignation of Aerodrome Operations Coordinator

I unfortunately report the resignation of Chad Byworth as our Aerodrome Operations Coordinator. Chad has held this position for nearly 2 years, having been appointed by Jack in November 2020. In his time he has done phenomenal work for the department having authored nearly 50 procedure change posts, designing our ‘ACBs’ (authoring the majority of them) and reviewing and improving countless documents produced by others. He has further kept many of our other teams up to date with operations c

Flow Control - ECFMP Integration

For over a year, the UK has been participating in a Europe-wide flow control coordination system called 'ECFMP'. In discord, you will see us occasionally posting in the "procedure_changes" channel with a Flow Control measure issued via this system. It allows us to request/issue traffic limitations to each other for the purpose of easing pressure on airports or sectors during events. As of today, the ECFMP group have launched a new web interface where these measures are issued. With that com

Operations Assistant - Ellis Delgado

It is my unfortunate duty to announce that @Ellis Delgado will be leaving the Operations Team. Ellis joined the team in August 2021 as an Operations Assistant and has supported us through several major cycle updates, to include our massive Luton/LTMA changes in early 2022. We thank Ellis for his contributions over the last year! Ellis will be continuing to contribute to our AIRAC cycles alongside being an active member of the division.

Operations Director - Resignation

Good afternoon all. I've throughly enjoyed the last year as Operations Director, the swell in interest and commitment to the network from everyone in VATSIM UK has been a big wave to surf and I'm really proud of the work that everyone in the department has done since we all started last year. It's time for me to move on now and hand the role over to someone else. Before I go, I would like to give you all (the membership) an idea of what goes on behind the scenes and thank some of those

Operations Director - Opening Statement

Firstly, thank you to everyone for the warm welcome, I know recuitment for this role has been eagerly anticipated and I hope I can do justice to it. At the present moment, Chris remains responsible for the majority of the department's output. This will gradually shift as we get the opportunity to hand over the various compenents. Getting to grips with the current state of affairs will take some time and I anticipate that during this period, I won't be able to respond to queries as promptly

Open Source Update - UK Sector File

I am pleased to announce that the migration of the UK Sector File Repository from GitLab to GitHub has now been completed - thanks @Neil Farrington! The new repository can be found here: https://github.com/VATSIM-UK/UK-Sector-File The first and most important thing is that you read (and understand) the Contributing guide which is attached to the project.
