I've heard of this going around. What is it? It seems pretty intresting, how do you get there? Tried Vatsim.com, don't work, figures... :P

Also, if you're looking to make it as realistic as possible, then I'd definitely pick up a microphone or headset (they can be purchased very cheap).

You'll probably also want to download (free) Roger Wilco and SquawkBox.  RW is a voice chat client, which will allow you and your controllers to communicate via voice.  SB is a program that allows you to file flight plans with ATC, and a few other goodies.

There's an AWESOME tutorial on the VATSIM site, and I'd definitely recommend reading it.  I tried to connect without reading it, and ended up giving up.  Once I read it, I was in like....well, you know...
Great edit, Bob.


Google it.
