I got a flight sim version hacked together and working for this. If interested dimitris, let me know and I will send you the updated files and the database insert. Ray **EDIT** I am attaching my version per dimitris. I have included a read me in the file. PLEASE make sure you read it. All code I have added I give freely to dimitris to add to his mod and do with what he wishes. I claim no ownership over his work or mine. It is all his.

It has been a long time since I messed with this module any. I would need to know exactly what you are doing or are attempting to do to even come up with an answer. I know out of the box, it has a couple errors that needed to be fixed. I was in the process of at least making it work error free for everyone but I got side tracked. I was able to fix a couple errors as well as the sidebar problem in the admin area.

That's actually pretty cool and works great. How about a little section for notes the submitter can add. For example, Scenery file for FSX only. Will not work on FS9. Should be fairly simple to do. I can even hack it together and update the database if needs be.

At my test airline, we are going through the same exact issue. Unless the fuel is set way low like you guys are talking about, it will always be an issue. I believe why this is happening is because, in real airlines, they have overhead they need to pay for such as pilots, co pilots, baggage workers, flight attendants, etc, etc. Last year American Airlines was profiting only $250 per flight on the average across the board once all fuel, landing fees, taxes, misc expenses, and salaries were paid. The way the system is set up to work now, we do not have the luxury of fine tuning finances. All we can do is try our best and set the fuel prices unrealistically low. I do have some real world numbers here somewhere that I have been researching and my apologies for chiming in and not having the information at hand. I think down the road, a nice feature for the software would be the possibility to add expenses per flight. That would surely even out the situation. For example, adding an expense in the system for flight attendants. This expense is added to any and all flights. Not very real to have flight attendants on a cargo flight eh? Or a small Cessna charter. I feel for us all going through the fuel crunch right now. I have faith that in the end, it will all work outwith us all giving input and Nabeel executing great code as he normally does. Ray P.S. My apologies for going off topic guys.

In one of the flight sim e-publications that come out monthly, I read about a virtual airline that opened up and was on the net for around 8 or 9 months and suddenly a real world airline opened up and stole the virtual airlines name and likeliness. Once the real world airline found out about the virtual airline, they threw a fit and had their lawyers send a letter to them to shut it down or else. Well, they never did and the or else happened. They ended up in court. The man who ran the VA got a lawyer and all information together and off they went fighting it out. In the end, the real world airline lost in court and if they wanted the name and likeliness, they had to buy the rights from the VA owner. The VA owner did not agree and made some serious cash off of the deal for the airline ripping him off. So the law works both ways. If it is yours it's yours. If it is not, it is not. Simple as that. Like everyone else has pointed out, get a legal agreement or all your work in the end is for nothing.

Actually I stand corrected by myself. His site is back online now and the link in the beginning of this thread does work.

Just a quick note on this skin, all the links were removed by Nabeel to begin with ( I believe ) because this skin was actually one that had to be paid for. The guy who ported it for phpVMS was caught ripping off templates and calling them his own. Since then, he abandoned and removed his own personal website from the net as well. Any and all help on this skin will only be given if someone feels like helping. There is no author around that did it for phpVMS. If you go and ask the original author for help, you may just get busted for using a stolen template. So in my opinion, the choice is simple. Figure it out by luck and some witt, or ask and wait patiently for help, or deal with it out of the box. If you so decide to give it a go on your own, please do note that it is not the easiest of skins in the world to work with. It is a good one for learning though. My honest opinion, try one that has been made by others for free, or build your won. Good luck in what ever choice you make.

Once upon a time I had the same exact issue. I watched the videos submitted by Patriot Air and mine worked fine after that. That is the funny thing about FSFK. Just when you think you have it right, go back and try again.

Are you trying to create a custom AIRMail page? As is, it works nicely out of the box. It only needs to have some minor css work doe to fit/match your site. You only need to place the mail check where you wish for it to appear on your site I.E. in the header or footer. When you view the page the call is on, you will see if you have mail or not. If you do, simply click your AIRMail link and it should take you to the AIRMail script Inbox.

I thought it was only me. Mine is not deleting bids after 48 hours neither. I'll go back to my site in a minute and post my VMS version so we can compare results.

Not sure about a blog, but phpVMS has a built in news module. It should display on the front page of your website. If you have created your own template, you will need to include the function in your code.

If you delete them, you loose all their flight time and all. You will see a major swing in your numbers if they had filed any pireps in the past. The easiest way is just to deactivate them or ban them.

A new AIRMail? That is great Dave! I really like the way it is to be quite frank. You all but nailed it on the first try. The only thing I think it really lacked was a delete all function. Thanks Dave. +1

I was messing around on a test site of mine that I have this time table on and where it shows the aircraft that is used for the flight, I also made it show the registration for that flight. As always, please create a backup of the file before editing. Line 51 timetable_index.tpl FIND echo '<td>'.$aircraft->icao.'</td>'; REPLACE WITH echo '<td>'.$aircraft->icao.' - '.$aircraft->registration.'</td>'; SAVE FILE AND UPLOAD TO SERVER Not sure if this is of use to anyone but if so, have at it.

Don't think so.

Sometimes all it takes is a break for a day or three so wonderful things can happen when you get back. Kind of like working on a car. Ever have trouble starting a bolt for 20 minutes then take a break and come back 30 minutes later and the bolt goes right in?

I think one valuable asset is going to be the last post on index. Right now all we can see is the date the last post was made. Would make it more forum like honestly speaking. Thanks for all the work you all are doing on this. I have modded mine a bunch, but mostly it is all skin and simple changes VA specific. Nothing worthy of sharing really. Keep up the good work guys!

This sounds pretty cool. I never took it to the extent that you did, I simply built an online radio station for my pilots to tune in to while flying. It even operates from the kneeboard which is cool.

Remember, if you name it the same as the default one, it will be over written in a update. They will work with other names. I got 9 of them in mine all different names so they don't get overwritten.

Is that site powered by phpVMS? Just curious.

Any issues at all to report with this build? I was thinking about giving it a try. I am slacking bad lately.

I posted a quick fin in the code snippets a while back on this one. And I believe you are right on track. I too do not see the need to recalc all them old pireps.

phpMyAdmin. So far that is the only way. Simply enter your database and delete them from there.

That is correct on the Realschedule Lite. It does not use the block bid on bid function.

Nice! Thanks Nabeel. I will have to check that out.
