International Virtual Aviation Organisation VZW (IVAO) is a non-profit association which operates a free-of-charge online flight-simulation network. Following free registration users can connect to the IVAO Network (IVAN) either as a virtual air traffic controller or as a virtual pilot and engage and interact with each other in a massively multiplayer environment utilising real-world aviation procedures, phraseology and techniques. IVAO, with more than 240,000 registered members, is one of the largest online flight simulation networks that allow users to act as either a virtual pilot or air traffic controller. IVAO relies solely on software developed by its own staff of volunteers. Air Traffic Controllers can connect to the IVAO network using IVAO's radar client IvAc, or Aurora - The IVAO ATC Client, that emulates the interface of a modern, real-world air traffic control radar scope. Pilots can connect using their flight simulator and the built-in pilot client, IvAp or Altitude - The IVAO Pilot Client. All pilots and ATC thereby interact on a dedicated, one-world server environment that simulates world-wide air traffic on an "as real as it gets" basis. While the largest part of IVAO's active membership is based in Europe, new divisions are continually being created to spread the network coverage world-wide. More information...
