Good day to all and Welcome to our world of virtual simulation.

The vUSCG is one of the original founders of the Virtual Special Operating Agency, along with other great VSOA’s The vUSCG and vUSN/vUSAF opened in December of 1999. From there we have seen transitions in Management of the vUSCG to what you see today. Managing members past and present are always counted upon for their experience and our continuity.

Your current Management Team consists of  members that are committed to the fact of re-producing one great experience while flying online.

We have all ways strived to be the “best” VSOA that has been offered to fellow Simmers on the VATSIM network. One great quote that comes to mind is “Semper Paratus” (Always Ready). We replicate the great missions that the real world U.S.  Coast Guard carries out every other day on a joint network with other Simmer enthusiasts. VATSIM is the avenue that provides the route for us all being able to enjoy the simulated world of ATC and other VSOA’s in a professional environment.

We believe that our Organization over the past years has provided the chance for all of us to enjoy what we feel to be truly as “Real As It Gets” experience unless of course you are operating in that real world capacity.

Our statement has always been, past, present or the future we will continue to be the best VSOA that there is too offer.

Our Management and Staff are from different areas of life like our Pilots are. Your Management Team here has many years of real SAR experience/Flying/Military/Policing and other related training and that’s where we shine through! 

Please enjoy the website, join our VSOA, contribute and enjoy the experience we have to offer.

The Management Team,

vUSCG.
