Ok, Let's start this post off by stating this post is only covering the law in england and wales (UK). This post has come about after an interesting post meeting discussion with my company lawyer regarding virtual airlines copying real world counterparts. I showed the lawyer several UK virtual airlines that mirror real world counterparts (some part of VA central, some not) and whilst he had no idea that these things existed (he has little interest in FS) he was actually extremely suprised that they were there at all. The crux of the matter, as he explained it, is simple business protection. Now lets say Airline A is a succesful british airline doing well and is prima…

According to site referrals, it seems as though there about 60+ VAs now using phpVMS in one form or another. I would like to build a list, but make it voluntary to add your VA to the mix. This list will be automatically aggregated on another page. Put your entry as: No other comments please, just the name and address

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…

Hello community, I been thinking of build an IFS or in flight entertainment system for pilots, which can be used to view videos listen to music and chat. I wanted to see what would be the demand for it if any. So am starting this topic to see how many of you would actually use something like that or how many would like to have it. Feedback is most appreciated.

Hello i have a problem that has been bugging me for a long and while flying on VATSIM. I have been unable to use VOICE on my laptop in FSX. It starting to really bug me now, because its not realistic to use text only and makes it hard for the controller. Basically i can transmit audio but i cannot hear it, this also applies to other programs too not only FSX, lets say i want to skype with someone and watch a YouTube video, nope i cant do that. So to put simply i cannot multitask with audio between two different programs. This is really really starting to annoy me now as i have been deal with this for months and months, please help.

Anyone thinking about using Windows 8? http://windowsteambl...ailable-on.aspx Still dodgy on my choices here. But what I see, I don't really think it's worth it, since it's different... and not even really almost the next Windows in sequence.

If your in the xmas spirit or it is snowing where you live like it is here in Ohio, then I found an easy to use snow script that uses no images and thought I would share.. <!--Simply copy and paste into <BODY> Just above the </BODY> tag. --> <script type="text/javascript"> /* Snow Fall 1 - no images - Java Script Visit http://rainbow.arch.scriptmania.com/scripts/ for this script and many more */ // Set the number of snowflakes (more than 30 - 40 not recommended) var snowmax=35 // Set the colors for the snow.

I've made the build scripts public: https://github.com/n.../phpvms_navdata There is a rudimentary README file. But yeah, fork it, download it. It has to be run on the command line. If you point the db.php to your phpVMS install, it'll populate there.

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

Hi guys, Just thought I'd post about my open-source project of which I am the head developer and project leader on, ZPanel which is written in PHP and supported on Windows, Linux and UNIX is an opensource alternative to the likes of cPanel and various other control panels. The latest version 6.1.1 is fully tested on Ubuntu 10.04, CentOS 5.2 and FreeBSD 8.2 as well as all versions of Microsoft Windows. Maybe this may be of some help to some people out there that are thinking about purchasing a VPS for running their VA on but don't have that much experience with Linux or FreeBSD or simply don't have the money to rent a Windows VPS. I'm not spamming the forums to try and…

I am curious to see what the web designers in the community think about frameworks for web design. I have worked with Bootstrap and the functionality is great, but do you also find many sites have a similar feel when they incorporate bootstrap fully? Do you find it is actually easier to start with your own code? Cheers!

Can you guys make a quick PHP script with this in it, and paste the output here. <?php echo(date_default_timezone_get()); I wonder how many hosts have properly set it up. It seems like I'm running into issues where the time is not being in the right timezone with some data I'm getting back to vaCentral. So I'll have to manually fix this... but I'm wondering if any hosts have this set properly in the first place. I'll manually do it...and I guess GMT is the aviation standard?
