How to Fly VATSIM Oceanic Crossing - Easy Tutorial | ATC Clearence & Position Reports

Since the release of the PMDG B777-300ER, many more people have been taking to the virtual skies in MSFS 2020 and making Oceanic crossings. When on VATSIM, this needs to be done in the correct way which is essentially, the same way as it is done in real life. It may seem daunting at first but this video will ensure you know what to do, when to do it, and how to do it in the most simple way possible to ensure you have a good and realistic Oceanic crossing.

IMPORTANT NOTES:-
Not all controllers use CPDLC & is not a requirement to fly Oceanic on VATSIM.
Position reports are not mandatory (as IRL and on VATSIM, controllers can see where you are now!) - but, you can make/send them if you wish.
If you fly a NAT Track that is not longer valid (see video), controllers can no longer clear you via this 'NAT track' but instead, will treat it as a random route
Once in Oceanic airspace, SQUAWK code 2000 should be used
The easiest way to file your Oceanic clearence is to use the NatTrak website shown in the video
