  1. Maybe not such a VA licence, but a VA account that is managed from current simbrief accounts. You can register your VA with your private account, receive and API key, set a password and username, and then when you use the API it checks that information against your database and allows pilots from a VA to generate the flight plans without signing into a private account.

    If that functionality was added, i would definitely include this in my airline, without a doubt.

    Thoughts?

  2. Agreed. VA licence would be good.

    The VA account could be managed by someone who already has an account. I was tempted to make an account for my whole VA, but people could just change all the account details which ruined the point of having one for all our pilots.

    VA licence :)

  3. I'm seconding this!

    I'm also interested in continuing my own project:

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/l5jl42wi021bemz/Screenshot%202013-12-16%2019.59.17.png

    It gives:

    Cost Index, Flight Times, NOTAMS, Fuel (needs to be tweaked).

    What i hope to add:

    Weather Details, Step Climbs, Gates numbers, GCMap integration (Like simbrief) with the current plan and winds.

    I also hope to have the pdf exporter working soon.

    And for your information, we have the Tab-able area like you are suggesting:

    MY QUESTION TO ALL OF YOU...

    Would anyone be interested in assisting me with the development of this "payware" system?

    Thanks! :)

  4. Speaking of skinning the admin center...How can one test the "dark skin"?

    I'm sure that if someone wanted to, they could use an existing admin theme, and port it to phpVMS, although it would take some time. i.e this would be seriously cool.After i finish exams i might give it a go.

    I had already made one a few months ago, it was almost fully functional, but not pretty. Maybe i should keep going with it? Or convert something else slightly more elegant?

  5. @itrobb

    You code gives him the Airport Name doesn't it?

    I think he wants the actual name of the city, of the airport. E.G KLAX - Los Angeles (Not Los Angeles international airport", EGLL - London (not Heathrow International airport")

    @stars

    As i said, if you want to do this, you would need to do a lot of modification to the airports table. The closest thing you can do, is what itrobb said; that is, the airport names!

  6. Place this somewhere near the top of your schedule_briefing.tpl

    $depinfo = OperationsData::getAirportInfo($schedule->depicao);
    $arrinfo = OperationsData::getAirportInfo($schedule->arricao);
    

    Then, where you want the countries to be placed...

    <?php echo $depinfo->country;?>
    <?php echo $arrinfo->country;?>
    

    Enjoy!

  7. The closest thing you can get to the city, is the airport!

    You can try the showing the country as well!?

    To show the city name, you would have to edit the phpvms_airports table and insert the data for all the airports, as well as make some changes to the files in the common and modules folders on your site.

  8. I've got these links from the simbrief.com website.

    http://www.simbrief....ome/?page=about

    I believe this is world-wide data, because simbrief can do it worldwide.

    Example:

    PLUGA
    S3536.4
    E15441.3
    400 238/071 -53
    380 237/069 -51
    360 239/066 -51
    340 240/063 -51
    

    I'd be interested on how you go about pulling this info into phpVMS/your briefing. I have built a dispatch for my VA, and one of only things its missing is Winds aloft, at the waypoints on the route.

  9. To anybody that uses bootstrap on their site:

    You will notice that on a site running bootstrap, any use of google maps will screw up. This is due to conflicting css statements in the bootstrap.css.

    Untitled-2_zps34efea94.png

    If you look in your acars.js, find the following line:

    var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById(acarsmap"), options);
    

    Notice the word "acarsmap" and this is important. In bootstrap.css find this (or similar):

    #map_canvas img {
    max-width: none;
    }
    

    and change it to look like this:

    #acarsmap img {
    max-width: none;
    }
    

    And, it should be perfect now. It may still conflict with the maps on flight briefings, and this may involve add another few lines in the css like this (for example), but im not so sure...:

    #briefmap img {
    max-width: none;
    }
    #myflights img {
    max-width: none;
    }
    

    Please let me know if this did or did not work for you.

    Enjoy!

  10. Are you interested in a new skins for your site??

    I'm happy to provide you with a basic skin to your preferences, changing the look and feel of your site - all for free.

    Want more customisation, custom modules or layouts, let me know and we can negotiate a price!

    If you are interested, PM me for more information and skin previews. Most of the skins i make will use twitter bootstrap, however that is optional.

    Modules available with your site could include (but not limited to) Jumpseat, Airline Stats, Unique flight briefing, auto awards and more...

    Enjoy,

  11. I never said Dan was wrong, just that you can definatley use smartCARS to do it as well; not JUST a customized version of kACARS; becuase smartCARS is still a custom ACARS system.

    On another note, one of my pilots cannot install the smartCARS system, so he uses kACARs and it still has a direct line from point A to point B.

    hmm.. :wacko: ....confusing....
