How can i conect to IVAO as an observer

today i did my first onlineflight on IVAO it was realy a new experience for me! it can be a little to mutch information in 1 time when you are feling stress so i was thinking if there is a way to conect to IVAO as an observer,it should helping alots to just listen and look how other pilots do.

EHM-1883 Matt:
First, you need to download IVAC, which is the controller software. Then, you need to download a sector file, which enables you to see a specific airport/airspace. Just look around IVAO for them. The divisions have a special page for them usually. Then, you need to start IVAC, connect, and type in xxx_OBS (xxxx being the airport ICAO code of the airport you're watching. If that callsign is taken, you can use other ways). Then, you can see everything.

If you want to become a controller, I'd say it's best to experiment with the controls of IVAC while as an observer.

If you just want to listen to the pilots, and the ATC, enjoy!

Quite detailed, but so many people get confused with IVAC. Hope this helps!

EHM-1798 Conrad:
Make sure that your profile also states that you are "ATC"

Mikael,

As I sort of said at the time, the other obvious (to me anyway) way(s) to do this is use IVAE to find a controller to "observe", get his/her voice channel details from IVAE and them manually connect to the controllers channel using TS2, muting TS2 using Self\Mute Microphone either before you join or after you get there; that will of course mean you won't get any visual context at all, but you could use FS and IVAP (or IVAC as Matt/Conrad said) to get the visual element.

EHM-1956 Mikael:
i still have one question how do i conect the corect way using ivap? i want to conect both visual in fs and with sound as an observer but i dont know the corect way,i just thinking i cant conect as an pilot and choice any aircraft in the list and fill in any flightroute bec im not going to fly? but i cant se any options to click as an observer so how can i do it.
