Hello DVA family. Account approved yesterday and was planning on doing to ATL-DEN flight but due to chores was not able to log in until like 1740 for an 1800 flight, well, there was so much to read that I did not have the time for the flight, pretty much everyone was taxiing at 1800 which was so awesome. Well, by the time my ACARS was installed and the knowledge was developed to use it I decided to do a short flight instead so I went from ATL-MCO. ATC was staffed at ATL and JAX. The flight went so fast as I was playing with the ACARS and reading all the chatting the members were doing that that flight seem that lasted only 30 minutes, hehehe. Did the return leg from MCO-ATL and it was again, awesome. By that time 80% of the US was ATC staffed.

Joined SATCO long time ago, then VATSIM and then was abscent for a while. Came back and started flying again and started to see so many DAL flights in ServInfo that open my curiosity and here I am, joined what it seems the best VA out there, and the ACARS is great.

I'm sure it is going to be fun.

Peace !

Jay

Thanks to all for such a great warmth welcome. Did the MMMX-MMUN online event and it was great. The controllers were awesome and the traffic was heavy. Didn't have the new scenery for the MMUN airport but will fix that very soon. C U all up in the virtual skies. smile

Welcome, Jay!

Funny thing - I knew a Jay Marin from the Miami area back in the SATCO days (late 1990's) if you're the same guy - or even if you're not - welcome aboard! We're glad to have you as part of DVA! smile
