President wrote a letter to AirTran Airways Virtual's members and the virtual airline community yesterday evening:
QuoteDear Pilots:
It is with a great deal of regret and sadness that I address you this evening. Unfortunately, AirTran Airways Virtual, an airline that has been established and operating since August of 2012, will be officially ceasing operations effective immediately (January 23, 2013 at 2300Z). There is an array of various variables which led to this:
- Brian Newman, the Vice President of Technology resigned effective January 13, 2013. This left a large gap within the virtual airline which, unfortunately, despite large scale advertisment and recruitment, we could not find a suitable replacement.
- We are subject to legal issues which cannot be discussed, however the legal issues which we encountered cannot be resolved.
- Unfortunately the virtual airline is not receiving enough activity to continue an operation. Less than 50% of the pilots are active in addition to the fact that registration is down and therefore we cannot continue an operation.
- I, the President of the virtual airline, have other life committments that I simply cannot continue to work around in order to successfully run this virtual airline.
It has been an honor to serve as the President of this organization, an organization I created and developed nearly one year ago. I wish you all the best in your virtual careers and in your lives.
Sincerelly and Regretfully,
Former President
AirTran Airways Virtual

AirTran Airways Virtual would like to extend a special thank you to the phpVMS community for all of their help and support. This operation would not have been successful without you. Furthermore, most virtual airlines would not be able to successfully operate without the phpVMS system.

AirTran Airways Virtual - Official News Release
Contact: j (dot) delaney (at) airtranva.org
AirTran Airways Virtual's President, Jordan Delaney, announced today that the virtual airline will begin accepting application to fill two executive positions within the airline. AirTran Airways Virtual currently is seeking qualified individuals to fill the positions of Vice President of Flight Operations and Vice President of Technology. Effective January 13, 2013, Brian Newman will be retiring. Brian has committed nearly a year of service to the virtual airline and personal time constraints have forced him to announce his retirement.
Resumes can be e-mailed to j.delaney@airtranva.org. Please do not send your resume if you are not at least 18 years of age and have had at least one year of management experience. If you are applying for the position of Vice President of Technology, please do not send your resume unless you have work or educational experience in the field of technology.
AirTran Airways Virtual was founded in May of 2012 by two flight simulator enthusiasts: Jordan Delaney and Brian Newman. The two enthusiasts, both being fans of AirTran Airways and the Boeing 717-200 aircraft, decided to establish the first (non-freewebs) independently owned virtual airline to simulate the "real-world" operations of AirTran Airways. In June of 2012, a huge step forward was made in the development of AirTran Airways Virtual. A domain was established, software to manage the airline was chosen, and website development began. In August of 2012, the virtual airline launched all flight operations. AirTran Airways Virtual prides itself on being one of the innovative virtual airlines in the virtual airline industry.

Definitely is not supposed to be there. I'll have to take a look at the format, it is supposed to be up in that banner area but not so unorganized.
-
Hmm. Jordan nor I were familiar with this. But I noticed they're missing the 1234.info link.
-
You don't need more realistic shots you just need to embed them properly..
The images are a bit large for the page, I can't do photoshop lol. So I'm waiting on Jordan for that, he says he is going to cut out the picture of the airplane and paste it onto a smaller background canvas so it will fit without being smushed on the page.
-
Your pics of the aircraft on your "Our Aircraft" page kind of look short and fat. Otherwise, looks good.
Thank you for the feedback. We will try to get some more realistic looking airplane shots that fit the page a bit better.
-
Looking very professional but not that skin again. And how come when you click the 123.info link it says opening 2009? :S
Thank you - and I'm not exactly sure what you mean about the skin. As far as I know, this is the only skin operating with phpVMS, and it has been fully customized to suite the needs of ATVA. As far as the 1234.info link, that is their website, I didn't design it nor do I control it. But I did change the link so it now opens in a new tab. Thanks for the feedback:)

The easiest way is if you have phpMyAdmin which most hosts do. Just go to your cPanel and click the icon the says phpmyadmin and click on your tables, find the phpvms_airports table select the checkbox for the ones you wish to remove and remove them.
Although the alternative if you don't have phpmyadmin is using an SQL query.

Thanks Kyle!

Good morning!!
I have an individual page for each of my hubs, and what I would like to do is echo out the roster for each hub individually. I am confused because I can't find anything in the pilot_list.tpl file that says anything about hub. Can anyone help??
Many thanks,
Brian
-
The schedule will show all flights in the database regardless of the current time.
-
There is a template file in the following directory: /core/templates/ the name of the tpl file is probably something_fleet.tpl - open up that file. There should be lots of php code but next to the php code after "Ort:" put the following code:
<br />Rank required: [enter the rank required here]

Thank you bakers11

We'll keep it in mind, thanks!
-
Thank you Drcodyjones and edmundk!
Looks like i would be applying for a real job do i get rehoming and a car from the compagny ?
No. We do not include a car in our benefits package. However, free virtual flights are included! We are quite competitive too, we offer free virtual flights on our virtual network and you don't have to fly stand-by!

Okay, it seems I've figured it out again. In the schedule_searchform.tpl file, the action url is set to dynamically generate. For whatever reason, it wasn't doing so correctly. So I manually changed the link to /action.php/schedules/view and it is now working. Perhaps a bug? I'll look into it more. Thank you for the help!
-
Hello,
The schedule only filters flights if you are logged out. If you are logged in, and you try filtering flights, it just shows up as blank. No flights are pulled up.

AirTran Airways Virtual - Official News Release
Contact: brian (dot) newman (at) airtranva.org
AirTran Airways Virtual announced early Wednesday evening that they are currently accepting applications to fill the position of Vice President of Flight Operations. All interested applicants are encouraged to download the PDF information file, and submit the attached application with rèsumè to headquarters@airtranva.org.
-
I tried taking it out of the table, but it didn't help any. With or without table it still looks like crap
-
I fixed it.
The problem lied within the schedule_searchform.tpl. The following code was the culprit:
<h3>Search Schedules</h3> <form id="form" action="<?php echo actionurl('/schedules/');?>" method="post">It seems that the action originally pointed to /schedules/view however the path this needs to be sent to is /schedules/. I didn't change the code but maybe something just got screwed up in the skinning process.
-
-
Tried the simpilot add-on, it still said "no routes found." However, there are routes in the db because I can see it in the admin panel, the tables, and using the scheduled module. However, I can't get any routes to display using the search function.
-
When I try to sort schedules by their departure or arrival airports, distance, or aircraft type, it just shows up as a blank page. There are flights in the database. They're just not showing up with the search function.
-
I'll see what I can do, as long as I know it's a skinning issue. Thanks!
