Hey there, I'm trying to get a 717-200 repaint going for FS9/FSX so we can start phasing out MD-83s in service at TexAir, but I've lost touch with the painter whom used to help us as he was quite busy. It needs to be a freeware model, either the JCA or HJG model will work as long as the necessary permissions are granted (I can seek these myself or the painter can do it, just let me know). I have two ideas in mind for the 717 - the first of which is to have the exact same paint scheme that our MDs have (mostly bare metal with some small designs), and the second is a new idea pitched by our COO of a white scheme with a Texas flag overlay on the fuselage. I've dabbled with…

Hi. I'm working on creating and putting into a database all the routes for my VA. But I was wondering, how can I find out the distance from one airport to another? Simroutes doesn't have all the routes I have so I don't know what to do for those routes. Is there a formula I can use in excel? Or a better website than simroutes? Thanks.

Hey all. I have been simming online for years but refused to ever fly at VATSIM. Well, I have had a change of heart and as we speak, I am logged on to VATSIM monitoring radio COMS. Anyone have any friendly advice for a Vatsim virgin? Are charts mandatory to fly there? I know how to use SIDS and STARS so it is no biggie, was mainly curious. Any advice I can get I would love it. I would hate to log on and get banned my first flight for doing something wrong. I have heard time and time again about how picky they are there. Thanks Ray

Hello, i dont know if this is the right forum and sorry my english, i will try to explain my idea. My idea is to share the tickets to other VAs. Let's say my last location is LPPT and i go to schedules to bid but no aircraft or no schedule avaliable at LPPT(in my VA). So the page(schedules)will show a list of tickets, not only from my VA but from other va's too (let's take easyjet va and someva) for example. That ticket list will show flights(in iframe or something), from my va, easyjet va and someva (and all others who share), i see the prices list and the most cheap ticket i purchase (someva). The money is taked from me (pilot) to that va (someva), and when that a…

I just was looking at a few details on my site and doing some tweaking. I went and vied the details for a schedule and I clicked the links that says Click TO View NOTAMS. It goes to here https://pilotweb.nas.faa.gov/geo/icaoRadius.html?icao_id=KPIT&radius=2 That example is KPIT. BUT no matter what airport I go to, I get Not Found The requested object does not exist on this server. The link you followed is either outdated, inaccurate, or the server has been instructed not to let you have it. Please inform the site administrator of the referring page. I was not going to add this as a bug since it is technically is not. I think that site is gone or they blocked us li…

I was wondering if it would be possible to have an option to include different ticket prices for different classes of service and if you could also include some sort of codesharing option where you could codeshare with other virtual airlines running phpVMS? Just a thought, Jamie www.flybia.cz.cc

Dear PHPvms users, I have to say, wow to this Virtual Airline system. Just these past days, my staff and I have been doing a bit of research, and AAvirtual.net has passed many other American Airlines Virtuals in the Virtual World! I have to say, this would not have been possible, without the help of Nabeel, SimPilot, Jeff and many, many more. Kudos to everyone! Regards Ada

Ok, when i am on FS2004 and when i am at CYYZ and i was taxiing or landing and taxiing or while i am at CYYZ, then what happened is my Video Card stopped working and it recovered, but it still stops working again while i'm at CYYZ. But it does not do that to me at any other airports. My FS2004 version is 9.1 And my video card is a ATI 2040HD XT I do not have anything downloaded or add-on secnerys in my FS2004. Any solutions for this?

Hello all, I have a question. Does it matter who you use to host. And what all should I know before installing phpvms into the site. I am new to this and am trying to learn everything I can to have a successful virtual airline. I understand that you need Apache and MySQL. I am looking at Vertigo Serv.

Hey guys, I'm having problems with my ATI Radeon 2600HD, it's been messing up my FS. Every time i play FS, my video card dies and recovers it good. It's bothering me for a while and I'm feel like i will break my video card in half . So can anyone recommend me a good one for FS2004? and will never die again. I'll will have to upgrade my power supply though but i'm looking for a 1000 WATT one.

To whom it may concern. It has come to my attention that a gentleman that was on my old VA website "borrowed" some rank images from another airline who is a member of this website and he did not have permission. I am taking these ranks down tonight after school and I will replace them with new rank images that I DID get permission to use from the VA owner of another VA not affiliated with phpVMS. I sincerely do apologize for this and I can promise that it will not happen again. I will not mention what site they came from or who the guy that was with my airline was that did it. No point in crying over spilled milk this late in the game. If there is anything on my site t…
