G’day all,
We’ve just opened early access on Stratos, a multi-sim ACARS and dispatch client with free open-source phpVMS 7 modules. We’ve just passed 10,000 tracked flights on the platform with a handful of early adopters and are now ready to start onboarding our next group of virtual airlines.
Benefits for pilots
- Live telemetry directly from your simulator (via SimConnect) with milisecond precision
- Landing analyser with a 0 to 100 score, runway diagram, and wind at touchdown
- Automatic PIREP filed on shutdown, no manual data entry
- Searchable, filterable pilot logbook
- Native builds for Windows, macOS, and Linux
- Supports MSFS 2024/2020, X-Plane 11/12, P3D v4/v5/v6, and FSX
- Customisable panels and themes
- Free to download
- Easily switch between different virtual airlines without needing to download additional software
Benefits for VAs
- Free, open-source, MIT-licensed phpVMS 7 modules (Core API and Logbook API)
- Drops straight into phpVMS via Admin → Modules
- Reads and writes phpVMS-native pireps and acars tables, no extra schemas
- VA-branded dashboard with your colours, logo, and terminology
- Documented REST API with OAuth 2.0
- Live flight map of all your aircraft in the sky
- Personally onboarded before go-live
- More modules on the way (screenshots, pilot presence, create-a-flight, announcements)
Happy to answer questions here or in DMs.

Note: this will eventually become a paid product that will have a generous free tier. Idea being smaller VAs aren’t gated out and the larger ops help keep the lights on.
