Hey guys, Just pondering the thought today and was wondering if (in the future) you were planning on releasing a version that doesn't require FSPassengers/ACARS to file PIREPs? Just a general question.. I think that'd be a nice idea as I know lots of people don't like to use ACARs/Passengers and just like to file the flightplan using a form. Just wonderin'.. Happy New Years, Austin.

Happy New Year!!! I had no idea it had been so long since we last corresponded. If you are still interested in lending a hand and I sure hope that you are then I am almost ready to go. I have finished about 90% of the flight schedule. I have to wrap up just a couple of routes, create crew and equipment layover schedules and I will be done. I am thinking mid January tops before all is done. If you wish I will be happy to send you the 90% so you can see what id done. What I am hoping for is if you would be so kind is to take a look at the data base I have created and then give me a guiding hand on what I need to do next. So if this sounds good please email me at coachred51…

Hey everyone! I have been gone for ever it seems but it's only been days and I am WAY behind on the beta versions. Hell I am still on 22 and we are now up to 38 I see. I'm glad all the dam holiday stuff will be over here in a couple days and everything around my house can get back on track. Hope everyone got what they wanted/needed for Xmas and that you all have a very Happy New Year. And my resolution for this year is going to be to quit lying. Yes that's right. Every year I say I am going to do this or that and never do, so this year I am not even gonna lie about it at all. lol I am just simply not going to do anything or say anything about doing anything. ;D ;D ;D

Hi all! I am coding a custom ACARS program in C# for my va. The pilot login function will have the pilot enter their ID and password, then it will need to query a different Login.php (will be in the same folder, but named Login2.php). The different Login.php will need to simply take to ID and Password that is sent to it form the ACARS program, and send back to the program as true or false (basically, does the ID and password match up in the database, and does the pilot ID exsist). I need some help on what the new Login.php would need, as I have no experience with php. Can anyone post the php needed to perform a function like this? Also, if anyone knows what code is …

I'm out of ideas, but the awards I have so far are: 5000 hours 10000 hours 500 pilots 1000 pilots I'm also thinking maybe 75% active rate after a month, and 60% after 2 months. Any other ideas?

Hi everyone, when a user registers i have an insert statement taken from the create forum account that inserts a users ID and name in to my teamspeak db, what i currently have is this, // Insert a row of information into the table "ts2_clients " mysql_query("INSERT INTO ts2_clients (i_client_id, i_client_server_id, b_client_privilege_serveradmin, s_client_name, s_client_password, dt_client_created, dt_client_lastonline) VALUES('0', '1', '0', '".$code.$fname."', '".$pass."', '', '' ) ") So this inserts in to my teamspeak db Pilot ID and First name like this ABC0001Mark, what i am trying to do is put a space in between the id and the name so it inserts like this, AB…

Was digging through VA Central and was looking at most of the VA websites that are a member there. I must admit, I was quite impressed by what I saw. VA websites have come a long way since I first started simming WAYYYYYYY back when. All of the sites I saw were great! Makes mine look very very bad. :-[ Maybe one of these days I will be able to afford to have a skin made for me. My skills are so dam weak it is not funny. I can integrate mods and such, just cant skin to save my life. Anyhow, enough of my babbling on and on. Happy Holidays all and keep up the great work on your VA sites. Ray

Hey Guys, I'm in the process of finalising my site and operations, (www.aura-airlines.com) but I have a question about ticket prices for schedules. I've flown two test flights and suddenly my VA has got £16M in the bank ;D as much as I wouldnt mind my personal bank account to reflect this sort of amount, It seems I may have set my ticket prices a tad high. Can anyone advise what an average ticket price would be? My airline is based around Specialist Charters to parts of the Globe that are considered generally highly dangerous flying areas/airports. Obviously its easier to work out ticket prices for General Airline flying into holiday destinations as they can refl…

Hi Folks, I was just wondering how many of you are using the live fuel pricing? If you are using it, how do you find it is working out? To date, I have been using a generic fuel price but would like to move to the live pricing. I just was wondering if it seems to be going alright at this point or what is there that I need to watch out for. Thanks, Chuck CYXU

Is there any way to display all the awards earned on one page. Here is an example: I have a page that displays all the awards that are awarded at the airline. I'd like under each award to show what pilots earned that award. If you still don't have an idea what I'm talking about you can check out the below link. They have what I'm talking about. http://www.metroairvirtual.com/index.php?content=awardlist Thanks for the help!

Hello Nabeel I have 2 questions At this point i have about 700 flight schedules but here comes the question I have about 300 done flights But I want to refresh off all the flight schedules on new year. Is this possible (read) will this affect any off the old pireps that have been send Example: Now TAY 256= ebbr-lfpg a flight has been done and stored in the pireps db After new year TAY 256= ebbr- eddw. Will this give an error or not because we are a real live airline and our schedules change every 3 months and if this can’t be done we need to ad so many schedules And that would we sad. Second If I want to start a second airline within phpvms is it possible tha…

Hi Guys, Having never really dealt with Civillian VA stuff before... not in a big way... I thought ID take the opportunity of an empty private flight server, and unlimited web resources to run a Civie VA alongside my ongoing Military Project. I was hoping the illustrious community here could advise me what in the way of ACARS programs is the best way to go? Cheers in advance.

Hey guys, I've just dropped phpVMS onto my webserver after having a few issues with vabase! :- It seems this software is much more robust and has a much nicer cleaner feel to it... so I'm impressed LOL I need some advice/assistance on modding the system to cater more for a new VA project im working on. I want to be able to achieve the following things: 1. Switch the emphesis from Civillian to Military Flying, things like Hubs becoming Stations/Bases for instance. This seems easy enough on a basic level but im not sure how far into the system i need to go to ensure all references are changed. 2. I want to disable all finances options as they really have no bearing o…

Courtesy of Ohloh.net: Ohloh phpVMS Code Analysis A summary: 48,000+ lines of code (all written by me, except for the libraries) 11 person years @ 55k/year = project cost of $627,611 if you hired someone to write it 73% of the code is in PHP, the rest a jumble of Javascript, HTML, CSS 700+ code commits Thought it was some cool stats. Of course, it's mute without this community. Thanks everyone! More to come

Okay this is going mostly to Nabeel but also to all the others, providing this project with new addons.. Id like to thank everybody for what they did and for what will come.. When i started my virtual airline Pan American Airways, i had to decide what to use. It took me some days to figure out, that there arent lot of such systems. Finally i had the choice between vabase and phpvms. Now I was one of those guys who thought that payware is always better and so i bought vabase. This was a big mistake because they dont have a good support and everything has to be customized and it would take weeks to get it even running in a decent way. Then i tried out phpvms which was t…

For conversions... I suck at these... // Convert units from gallons to lbs if(self::$unit == 'lbs') { $result->jeta = $result->jeta / 6.4; // 6.4 pounds per gallon $result->lowlead = $result->lowlead / 6.4; } elseif(self::$unit == 'kg' || self::$unit == 'kgs') { $result->jeta = ($result->jeta / 6.4) * .45359; $result->lowlead = ($result->lowlead / 6.4) * .45359; } Basically I start with the fuel price, per gallon. Then to convert to price per lb, divide by 6.4. To KG, I convert to lbs, then multiply by .45 to get to kg. This correct, seems rig…

Hey guys, I'm new to most of this stuff I am really starting to enjoy website creation. I've been learning CSS and the use of Divs. to me I love the designing without tables. I drew a website up tonight the background is a slight gradient and I'm trying to have a transparent content box. My problem is the gradient It cant Repeat-Y because the backgrounds wont match. And I tried making a .Gif but it didn't work, and I hear some browsers do not support .png's right now. Here is the start of my design, what is the best way to make content boxes like I am attempting to do? I've seen it don't with 5 Divs, top, bottom, left, right and center. Mine only had 3 top center and…

I've never been that much into the financial stuff of a VA, but it occurs to me there is one form of expense we don't have. One that is a percent of the gross revenue...for taxes and the like. I'm not sure, but I don't think it would be a major coding problem.

Hello Nabeel Somewhere in the forum i was reading that you wanted to put all the airports in the dropdowns for filing a pirep. Is this done or not because the error I am having (http://bugs.phpvms.net/ticket/32) Won’t let me upload the schedules to vacentral. And I think this error is because we did some charters using xacars flights that aren’t in the database(airports). So if all the airports would be in the dropdown or so I could put them all in the database. Gr joeri
