When using VatSim, should I have my callsign as DVA or DAL?
For example, a normal Delta flight, DAL2265, or should I put it as DVA2265?
Thanks so much,
Will

DAL Is the Airline code recognized in most online communities, When I fly online I use my assigned number, for me it allows ATC to reconize who I am, kind of like a stature thing  been around for awhile and most controllers know me by now LOL... They see me coming and Log off , JSK.....

One more question - How do I know what my assigned DVA ID is? I looked on the who's logged in page and everyone had an ID by their name besides me. Thanks in advance.

Once you file your first pirep, an ID will be assigned to you.
See you in the skies!

| William, it doesn't matter what you use on Vatsim (flight number or pilot ID). Some people use their pilot ID (I would highly encourage that use for group flights) and others use the real flight number. You are free to choose.

Willson, welcome to DVA. Since you are new, I'll point out a very handy-dandy feature we have in our forum called the search function. You'll find that this topic is one of the most frequently asked questions here, and a search would likely come up with a dozen or more threads discussing this very topic.
