Hello, I would like to introduce myself to the gang here at ZOA. A little about me, I'm 49, retired and have fun simmin'. I've been a fan of planes since I was a kid. when I got my first scanner I rode my bike out to the airport (KFAT) and spent all day lounging and listening.
Although I've done a lot of flight simming, this is all new to me. I will try my best not drive anybody crazy with tons of questions and an advance "thank you" to all. This looks like a fantastic group that I am glad to a part of and hopefully fit right in.

Donald,
Welcome the group. I'm relatively new here myself, and am yet to find anyone on staff here not willing to lend a hand, or answer any questions you might have.
I'd like to recommend that you read the training material (follow the Training link under ATC Information) for S-1 as soon as possible.
After that, read the ASRC manual cover to cover.
When I arrived, I had _SO_ many questions, but those two references answered 95% of them. The ZOA training material is very well written and formatted.
Welcome aboard, prepare to be addicted.
Keith
