Okay, I've had this question, but never thought on asking it. Is there a way to not have a schedule database be attached to PIREPS? (or is it absolutely necessary?)

All of us who has Saitek Hardware like the Mutlipanel should take a look at http://fstools.weebly.com/. I found it on the Web. Description from their site: Spad is a replacement driver for the Saitek Pro-Flight Radio, Multi and Switch panel. Spad implements features like: - Compatibility with addon aircraft supporting keystrokes and virtual joystick button (using Peter Dowson's FSUIPC) - Improved knobs sensitivity with tunable acceleration - Additional features like altimeter barometric regulation - Many bugs fixed (missed glide slope in FS2004, Nav1 switch etc.) - Much better stability Spad is free ! Spad is in active development, join the forum and contribu…

I noticed that there is an embedded METAR in the pilot brief page, and would like to be able to do this on another website (i.e. not phpVMS), but I can't find the code to do it. How is it embedded, and does it use PHP or JavaScript?

Hi Guys, As of today, I am having to close simual.com. Because of my incident, I haven't been able to work on the site very fast, And my staff team could not understand that, So they said they are going to kick me out. So i denied that and they are starting up their own SimUAL, Any know I own the content and the site. So they said they can steal all the content and site the any know i'm the creator. But from this incident I am closing it and putting more of my time towards other va's and assisting them in their development. http://simulatedunited.com is the site my former staff are starting, I don't recommend you join them, But if anyone needs help. Ill have more time fo…

Hi Guys, I have built a flightplan parser that does all sorts of things including reading airways and breaking them up into their constituent waypoints. To do this it directly references the X-Plane waypoint databases. Must easier than sending tons of queries to MySQL. Now I have it all working in parser.php but want to include it into a template file so that it neatly fits into my VA site. The database file's don't seem to be found even when i reference them with i.e. 'http://www.vasite.com/files/waypoints.idx' Basically how do I integrate the stuff I have into the Codon interface? Cheers, Nout

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…

I would like to say personally to Nabeel, Thank you fro working very hard on this project and making it free and open source to develop on. I will personally see to it that PHPVMS will be the one and only true VA system...Thank you,NEVA

Thanks Nabeel, you are indeed a good man. Are you a teacher? I ask because you bring out the best qualities of an educator. If you don’t mind a bunch of what might seem to you like really dumb questions, then I want to use your administrator. Here is a good one to start off with. When I down load your virtual airline administrator I am assuming I am getting an operating platform that is more or less a template that runs a VA; is that correct? From there will I be prompted to enter my data? For example I have worked out, or better said nearing the end of working out a clockwork route system that has over 750 daily fights. I would assume there are prompts that allow me to …

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…

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.

I noticed something today, and thought I'd come to the forum here and see if anyone else had brought it up and maybe shared a few good laughs with everyone else, but I couldn't find anything. I like the randomly generated Airplane! quotes in the Admin footer. Very clever easter egg I wouldn't have noticed if my Internet connection wouldn't have hit a snag and stuck with the footer in my face.

I know this isn't quite related to phpvms, but as a new VA, I don't have tons of knowledge or resources for getting things done as of yet. So I'm asking the PHPVMS community if anyone knows of a good resource for making repaints for a VA. I have a few different A/C needing painted for my fleet. Cheap or free would be awesome. I have an example of what I would like done.

Hey Guys, I now that you can use mysql_num_rows but with phpVMS theres the custom mysql connect syntax that makes everything a lot cleaner. i.e. DB::get_results($query) How do I count rows? (i.e. count the number of schedules with B747-400 departing EHAM) Cheers, Nout

On our home page I switched to FS Pilot Shop Advertising. Problem is that the ads are bigger than the square they're supposed to fit in. I changed the size in the url: <a href="http://www.fspilotshop.com/index.php?ref=307&affiliate_banner_id=6" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.fspilotshop.com/affiliate_show_banner.php?ref=307&affiliate_banner_id=6" border="0" alt="300 x 250 Rotation 1"></a> I changed the 300 x 250 to 150 x 125, but the banner size didn't change. Any ideas?
