Hello Everyone,After much discussion and overview of this fantastic project I will make it public that Northeast officially announces the use of PHPVMS. We will pick it up on its scheduled release date of August 9, 2008, and plan to have systems up and running by January due to a hectic schedule for the administration. 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

Hi Guys, As of today, I am having to close simual.com.

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.

Hey everyone, I think I am going to remove flight legs. Now since you can enter letters into the flight numbers, the leg's are kinda "obsolete", since you can just add it as part of the flight number. Also, FSACARS and FSPAX don't support it, so it's throwing things off with PIREPs and those finance calculations, and other 'future plans' which I have in mind. It just adds another layer of complexity, which is just giving me a big headache, and doesn't really serve a huge purpose (I don't think many of you are using legs) Just giving a heads up. Nabeel

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?

Any XACARS users here know if there is a way to change fuel from pounds or gallons to kilograms? I searched but did not find any relevant info on the subject.

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.

We have numerous flights in our database. The flight numbers are generated by us, but occasionally a pilot may want to fly a trip using an historical timetable. How can he submit a pirep using a flight number that may not be in my database? Is it possible? Thanks!

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?)

When you add/edit an aircraft, it has spaces for links to images and downloads. Where would you see the image or find the download link on the site if you were a pilot?

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?

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 …

Hi Guys, Just incase any of you haven't heard, AVSIM was recently taken down by hackers, which in effect destroyed their complete forum, and downloads databases. These guys have been running for 13 years now. Here is the BBC link. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8049780.stm AVSIM have setup a temporary forum in the meantime, until they get their site redeveloped. Hope you guys don't mind me posting this here; but i feel it is a great loss to the FS community. http://linux.myalbemarle.org/forums/index.php -James

As the title suggests, phpVMS is what I am looking for, but I was wondering whether there was any chance of VATSIM being included in phpVMS in the near future. I've noticed that vaBase does have it already integrated but after looking around they seem like a very dodgy company and the code is supposedly bad. Cheers, Max.
