I have ICAO 4444 Air Traffic Management (Its a tad old). I can get the CAA Radio Telephony Guide aswell but not from ICAO.

Do u have any digital form of those than could be passed to me? That will be great, even just the Doc 4444 is great, if im not mistaken it complements annex 2 an 11. That would be really great if someone can forward me those information. I have some text books i use at school but they're in italian.

Have you visited the local ATC Centre? When I applied to the Irish Aviation Authority for their Student Controller programme I paid a visit to the "Shannon Centre" and spent about 3 hours with the controllers there sitting with a pair convering high level over the East of Ireland. I never realised how busy Irish airspace was until then. :shock:

Well actually i still don't qualify to be a student controller, i need to finish school first. I have a planned 4 days of stage(I get to stay at the TWR and help a bit and observe so i can learn) but that will be in march or april. To be come a controller here in Italy i need to finish my studies first (2yrs to go) then apply for A board exam, if i pass then im admited in the course if not then I'll try to find my luck elsewhere. I just hope anyone has some use full stuff to pass on in order to bring my self forward with the programme. I want to make a good impression :wink: The last thing i got to do was to update the AIP.

This picture shows how I utilise Flight Simulator 2004 over 2 screens. Flight Simulator is on the right (laptop 19" widescreen, second is a 19" monitor)

I have been flying FS since Ye Olde FS

My brother and me has been on a round the world trip for 2 years now, starting in Sydney, and right now we are in Innsbruck. 300+ airports visited so far and all flying has been done in real time. No acceleration, no unreal SST's, just the Concorde on one stretch.
Here are some various screens from that trip, and some edits first.
Click to enlarge and hope you enjoy them.

By using a combination of Walk&Follow and Active Camera, and then taking screenshots using FSScreen.
Both Walk&Follow and Active Camera are cheap addons that can work together in FS. Walk&Follow is great for external shots, and Active Camera is great for cockpit view and it's "moving head" simulation which is fun when flying smaller planes

That shot from inside the engine of the Eva 747 is my favourite

Daniel, you could use the one that says "Widescreen Ending" for a commercial/brokerage thread. It's excellent :wink:

On your keyboard you should see a Prnt Screen button, press it to take a screenshot of your screen. Then paste it in paint or a similar program. Then save it as your desired file type.

You don't have to do that. Google 'FSScreen', it's a program that automatically saves a screenshot to a desired folder when you press PrntScreen. I don't have FSX, but I believe the 'V' key works, it saves screenshots somewhere in the My Pictures folder.

Here's 2 from a recent flight I did in FS9:
