  1. I have a question for other CEO's. If one of my pilots has an issue or for some reason the acars does not report their pirep. How can I add their pirep manually? Other than logging in as them, then filing it for them, is it possible for me to log a pirep for them? Thanks.
  2. Like the others have said, it's nice to offer something other VA's don't have. In the end if you have the same routes and same aircraft it's just different liveries. Flying into smaller airports sounds like a good start. I like the idea of the Caravan. You can always use both, freeware and payware, if you have repaints for them just link them in your site. If you don't require VA specific repaints then they should be able to use the freeware or payware just fine. Then you won't be requiring/forcing people to purchase the payware. I also like the of semi bush flying. This is just an idea, but it would be cool to see a VA in Orbx NZ North Island areas. Again, you wouldn't have to require the scenery as they could use the default but it would be cool to do some bush flying in the Carenado Caravan down there, it does look nice. Like others have said, if you don't have the know how to do it all make sure you have a good staff, good web-person and understand being in charge of the VA means less flying at times. I have my own VA, I have excellent help, I'm smaller so I don't have the issues the larger 100+ pilot rosters do. Main thing is have fun, it's a great hobby. Good luck and happy flying!
  3. I'm sure it's a great VA, I just had the "jaw dropped to the floor" moment when I read they require that. I was like WOW!
  4. Sorry if this has been asked previously. Is there a Virtual British Airways that uses phpVMS? I search google and I can really only find 3 virtual British Airways. 1 uses simmiles which I'm not sure about, the other 2 do not use phpvms AND are full. 1 of them requires a credit card to even apply, when they are accepting applications. The other is accepting applications but has 180+ applications in for 21 openings. Are there any others out there that want pilots? Don't require a credit card, and you have a realistic shot at flying for? Thanks.
  5. Sorry about that, I must have done something wrong when I edited it, I went back and added my link. Was it in 3 different places? I was hoping to have it posted 1 time only. Thanks for clearing it up and sorry for the confusion.
  6. Looking to join a VA that models a real-world airline? Do you enjoy flying the Airbus A319, A320, and A321? If you want to have FUN and just enjoy flying, come check us out. My link Thank you for your time, Gus Heinze NKS1 President and CEO of VirtualSpiritAir.us
  7. Hello, I'm new to all of this, I'm trying to read through these posts to learn as much as possible. One common thing that keeps popping up is "read/see the tutorials". I want to learn how to add images to my skin, change the colors, etc...basically edit a current template and eventually learn to make my own. The problem I'm running into is, when I go to the tutorials, it says they are currently not available. It says to go to the forums and read through them to find more information. Are the tutorials, somewhere in the forums, like under a certain heading? Sorry for the strange question. I would like to learn how to do all of this, it's just hard when the common suggestion is, " read the tutorials" yet the tutorials are not there... I did read the dummy guide for the phpvms and it was VERY helpful, I'm looking for something like that for a new guy like me. I also understand it's hard to keep the forums organized and it can be a full time job just trying to keep up with that, it's just hard for someone like me that knows nothing and I click on the links in some of the posts and they tell me the page is no longer found. Seems like I'm hitting dead ends in a lot of places...I'll keep plugging away, hopefully in the mean time someone can direct me in the area of the tutorials. Thank you gents.
  8. Hello, I'm VERY new to all this...working on getting my VA going, work in progress.... I have 2 questions so far in regards to using FS Flight Keeper and phpVMS. 1) When I'm flying it shows me on the Live Map but the distance is way off. For example I was flying KFLL-MYNN and it shows me 4800miles from my destination, when the actual distance is more like 160nm. How would I go about correcting this? 2) When I complete flight and submit my Pirep it shows all the flight information except the Aircraft Type. I can edit the pirep and select my aircraft and then all is fine, but I was wondering how to make it show the aircraft without having to edit this part. When I start my flight in FS Flight Keeper it shows my current aircraft i.e. Airbus A319 and that is the correct plane, it's just when the Pirep goes through that the Pirep doesn't show it. The "details" section of the Pirep DOES show the aircraft, just not the part that the admin panel needs to see. Any ideas? Thank you.
