Hi guys, I'm just wondering what should I purchase (Heathrow scenery). Either the UK2000 Heathrow Xtreme, or the Aerosoft Mega Airport London Heathrow? I'm looking for the most realistic possible. I have FSX if that helps. If you have another recommendation (that is heathrow), then please say. Please also vote on the poll, and WHY I should pick your choice?

Merger Email? 1 2 3

Hi Folks, I was just wondering if anyone else received an email from another Virtual Airline offering a merger deal. I recently received and email offering a merger deal with benefits. It was stated that there was an extreme lack of activity at our airline....hmmm, over 4,000 flights and heading for 7,000 hours logged.... I emailed back wondering where he came up with this idea that we were failing...his reply was that since we used a free source pirep solution, we must be on our last legs and ripe for the picking. It is not my intent to turn this forum into a bashing session against another VA so I will not post the person's name or VA. If anyone were to pm me ask…

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.

So...airnav won't budge, despite the fact that they don't have an AUP in place, and claim that I'm spidering. Lame. Anyone know of any other resources to get fuel prices? I could do a 'community database', but not sure how much good that would do, since there's alot of manual investment. Maybe something that collects averages from vaCentral?

Hello everyone. I have heard of such a system as the dispatch, but absolutely no idea how it works in the php-code, no idea about his work with this system. Can anyone tell how he, for instance, arranged works, where do the data to calculate, as computed data for any aircraft. I hope the issue is clear. Thank you.

This comes under the heading of the older I get, the dumber I get. I saw a thread about a modification that would make multiple aircraft available for a flight. A few days later, when I wanted to look more closely at the idea, I just couldn't find it. I tried searchging for it, but to no avail. Can anyone point me to it? thanks.

As everyone knows, I built my VA website some time ago with phpVMS and I have had issues beyond my control and am now starting over from scratch. No launch date in sight so far. if it is not right this time, I am sticking to someone else's VA ;-) Soooo, I was wondering if I could con someone into creating me a Thunder VA logo to match the Crystal skin, that will work for me temporarily until I get all the bells and whistles done. This time around, the skin is going to be the last thing I do. So if I had a logo, atleast folks would know it is the Thunder VA site and not phpVMS site. Thanks in advance either way. Ray

I've been looking around the code in app.config.php and spotted this. Config::Set('DAYS_COMPACT', array('Su', 'M', 'T', 'W', 'Th', 'F', 'S', 'Su')); Config::Set('DAYS_LONG', array('Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday', 'Sunday' ) ); I know as much about PHP as I know about quantum mechanics, so I am curious as to why Sunday/Su is in the array twice. Sorry if this is a dumb question.

Can someone send me a Dreamweaver template? I know they have some markup in it, with the content tags, etc. I'd like to either somehow have phpVMS parse it directly, or instructions on how to translate from that to phpVMS (which should be real simple with the layout.tpl format)

I'm using live fuel prices and all I can say is "ouch". As of the time of this posting my VA has 79 flights recorded with over $3,000,000.00 spent in fuel! Thank goodness I have plenty of "virtual passengers" flying with us or I'd go bankrupt. Sorry, just had to post this little bit of silliness. Keith

I am no longer doing phpvms skins for other va's, there are just too many things to be doing right now, but do not want people hitting my site to not have any options. If you are skinning sites for phpvms and would like a link to your site from simpilotgroup.com let me know. I also have a skin switching demo site similar to the one at phpbb if you would like to include any skins of your own, let me know. I can include them with credit/links to your site. skin switching site - http://www.simpilotgroup.com/skins/index.php/

Hey everyone, Since learning how to do them, I have a bunch of phpVMS functions lying idle on my site, and I think other people could utilize them. How about, if there was some sort of pastebin-style thing where everybody contributed their different functions as addons. There's always the code snippets forum, but this might be a little nicer. Just a thought!
