Vatsim does allow emergency simulation - but only with permission of the controllers. So say you have a gear problem and a controller is
online - explain you are simulating an emergency and ask if that is ok with them. If they say sorry no it is too busy then you will have to
disconnect.

Never, ever squawk 7500 on VATSIM - you will be booted off immediately. The same goes for 7600, communications failures are not
allowed to my understanding (sort of defeats the purpose of online ATC lol).

Like they say it in the real world...sorry, too busy for an emergency so keep flying...sorry, but I think that is one of the less realistic things a
controller can say on VATSIM.
I fly on IVAO and FPI, no problems at both networks, everything works as it has to.
