Who IS this Chris guy anyway?

…and who gave him access to source control?

Seriously, Chris is the third and most recent developer to join the team – he’s been full time with us for a while now, working mainly on the new ATC system for X-Plane 10 and the Android port of X-Plane mobile.

Like Randy and Austin, Chris is a real-world pilot.  He also worked on some of VATSIM’s core technology back in the day – AVC and VATSIM’s voice-over-IP tech and XSquawkBox.

Please don’t flood him with “will ATC do X, Y and Z” questions; since version 1 of the new ATC engine hasn’t been released yet, it’s a little bit too early to start the discussion on how to extend it.
