Hi guys, I know this is a bit broad but I was wondering how most of you VA owners configure your flight prices against your fuel prices. For example, this evening I did a flight from Stansted to Jersey and lost £8,000 due to fuel prices to that of the ticket prices. I ideally want to setup my VA to have realistic finances, I believe that the live fuel prices only work in the US and as my VA is only going to fly within the EU I assume that I cannot use the fuel prices so could someone recommend a good or semi realistic fuel price to setup in phpVMS. At the moment I left it as the automatic 5.10 but changed my fuel measurement to KG maybe this has something to do with …

Hello all, We are in the works of a live online aviation tv station, that will include a Flight Simulator channel, and a real aviation channel. The channels will consist of user made aviation videos (full credit will be given to the user) to create a 24/7 live stream of videos. Your Virtual Airlines promo videos, or any other aviation video you have created, can be added to the FS/Aviation channels. This can help advertise your virtual airline, or youtube channel. If you are interested please leave your Youtube video URL's, or your channel link below. Again, full credit will be given to your videos. We will notify you if your videos will be in the live streams. …

Just thinking out loud here - With the announcement that SimPIlot is closing down his site and http://www.simpilotgroup.com/ ...................... What becomes of VA Central, version 3 of phpVMS and this support forum? It was my understanding that SimPilot was involved in keeping all of this functioning. I do see that Nabeel is working on version 4 of phpVMS. Who will be responsible for VA Central and this sites web hosting after SimPilot closes? I see the front page no longer shows anything about version 3 and appears to have reverted back to the original page (prior to version 3 announcement).

Is anyone else getting an https warning on their Android device? Or a "Cannot Verify Server Identity" on iOS? Does this have to do with the transfer of hosting from Simpilot to Nabeel?

I see the new version of phpVMS works with FS Flight Keeper. Is there any benefit to using FSFK rather than FSACARS or FSPAX?

This System is no longer in development. It is exclusive to only the virtual airlines already operating this system. Hello Guys, I recently finished coding a Dynamic Inflight Entertainment System, and since the current results are outstanding, I would like to share with you guys more information about this module, I am planning to start distributing soon. I named it DYNIFE. DYNIFE refers to Dynamic Inflight Entertainment System. This system is an inflight entertainment, but not like the others. PM if anyone is interested, I can give you alot more information including access to the demo.

I have a quick question. Not really support or bug related...I do not think at least so I enquire in general. If a pilot transfers say 50 hours of time to the VA, does that effect his/her rank too? Or does it just give time credit per profile and NOT count towards rank?

I haven't bashed MS in a long time. (a week) That is about to change. I went to the MS online store and got Outlook 2010. I downloqded the 64 bit version, which promptly told me since I had Office 2007 32 bit, I couldn't install it. Gotcha #1. I downloaded the 32 bit version, which refused to install because it thinks I still have one of the prerelease versions installed. I uninstalled it months ago. I would tell Steve Ballmer to go to hell, but hell hasn't caused me any trouble, so why should I bother hell.

So I was thinking, seeing as phpVMS is hosted on github, we could get around the whole downloading a zip, uploading, etc etc etc. How easy would it be to set up a "stable" branch of phpVMS on github, which the updater can pull a zip of and install itself? (Also if it's not that easy, having a "stable" branch alone would be super handy as the master is not always error-free, and there aren't any historic downloads in the downloads tab on github )

Hey guys, i'm currently creating a new community site for virtual airline staff and pilots. Of course it will also be open to any Flightsim enthusiast who likes to join. The main purpose is that virtual airlines find any possible information centered on one site plus give pilots who look for a VA a place where they can easily browse through VAs from all over the world. Secondly it also gives people who offer services for VAs the chance to advertise on one place thus making it easier for VA CEOs to find these services. I plan to expand that community in the future by listening to the whishes of the community members. since this forum here is mainly for phpvms Support i …

As we know, there are several spammers lurking in the community who will do everything to ruin the work put into creating phpVMS sites. I thought it'd be useful to create a blacklist, where we can post the details of the pilots who are spammers or suspected to be. Go ahead - lets hope this cuts down the number of spam attacks. I've got about 300 on my forum... currently looking for the two I recently deleted.

Hello. I have spent a while searching for a JavaScript code to remember what a user has clicked on in their last visit on the internet for what I am looking for what I need but I cant find it. So I was wondering if anyone here has ever came across such a code online before? To make things a little clearer, what I am looking for is a JavaScript code that will save information on a cookie about what link a user has clicked on in their last visit and keep redirecting them to that link everytime they visit the page. So if they go to www.yoursite.com and click on a link that says Link-1, it will redirect them to www.yourwebsite.com/link-1 everytime they visit www.yourwebsit…

This is beyond ridiculous! It's disgusting that nobody can create anything around here without some fool claiming its been stolen! You have no rights over an idea! People here need to understand that seeing as we're all here to do the same thing, we're probably going to end up doing the same things! In addition to that, HTML and CSS are designed to be written in a certain way, and that way only. To create a valid HTML table, for example, you need certain tags in a certain order. Two people who are inevitably pursuing the same idea will no doubt end up writing the same code, if they write valid code. It's driving innocent people, who are bringing creativity and product…

Can someone help me with the IPS flight board, and it's not the phpVMS version but the stand alone I guess it is called. I am trying to code the LiveBoard.txt file and have no idea how to begin. I am trying to get it to work with phpVMS, and I know it's IPS and that's why I posted in the Off-Topic area. And help would be appreciated!

Hi Nabeel. I was just wondering, with the coding the way it is now, how hard would it be to make it so that awards name and description is a tooltip ( Alt Text ) when you mouse over an award image instead of it appearing beside the image. I think it would simply be for asthetics of course. I'm not asking for this to be a built in feature, was just a thought I had. I was going to take a stab at it, but I decided against it. Reason: Since I am on Beta, I hate to come back and report something broke after I altered it. That is not fair to waste your time like that on something that might be my fault.Â

6-23-17 I have seen phpVMS go through many different phases in what is nearly 10 years since I stumbled across it. Nabeel has been able to create the defacto application for people that want to start or run a virtual airline and keeping it free and open source deserves nothing but appreciation for Nabeel. I as many others have benefited from his work, both financially and not. I apologize to all those that were/are affected by my absence for quite some time both here on the forum and at SimpilotGroup. Things have changed in my life and my attention can not waver from my real world responsibilities for the foreseeable future. While I had hoped things would get to…
