If you were to register you will have a vATO call sign to be used for vATO flying. Anything you will report to your instructor for training, exercises or hours log.
vATO simulates an academy of flight and the proposed flights could be as simple as a VFR pattern (specially at the beginning), and you Will not be able to fly a big bird on vATO until you are "licensed" to do so.
We do not prevent you to fly as much as you want as jwocky on a 747 from US to Africa. We prevent you to get those as valid vATO hours. That's all. It's up to you on distributing your time to accomplish both goals.
Now your direct question. What call sign would be for you?. Would you represent Germany, US, or other country?
For a practical demonstration I am assuming you decided Germany.
Here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_r ... d_patternswe can see germany registration rules:
D-EAAA to D-EZZZ for single engine aircraft up to 2t MTOW
That is where the training aircraft (c172p) fits. so we have fixed
D-E
the last character is for the level E->A
D-E**L
we have 2 characters for choice, and you will select this with your instructor. If I were him, I will suggest you using JW (from JWocky)
so the GA callsign at your begin will look like [Here you could say you preffer D-EJCE from JwoCky. That'll be allrigth)
D-EJWE > D-EJWD > D-EJWC > D-EJWB > D-EJWA
[Important, your callsign has a 3digit representation as well, here being JWO in a phone pad: 596. This number will apply to you when on vATO CPL and ATP levels. Example, eventually you may be DLH
5962. This callsign tells, you are flying a Lufthansa route and your level is 2, or second officer]
Notice if while you have a level that allows you to use a double prop (seneca II or other similar plane), you will need to adapt your registration to comply:
D-GAAA to D-GZZZ for multi-engine aircraft up to 2t MTOW
So you will be
D-GJWC ,for example (that will be Jwocky flying a two prop 2tMTOW, at level Charlie)
Proper registration would be a must for vATO flying.
IH-COL
PS: I would be delighted to one day seeing you complete your 747 (more than 20T MTOW) Non-Airline route KPHX to HUEN, and using your proper vATO callsign:
D-AJWA. Those are good amount of hours. And you could do that on a CPL level 3.
If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it? Probably not, because if they don’t recognise their freedoms, they’ll let their freedoms fall
