AustinWilliams Posted January 1, 2010 Report Posted January 1, 2010 Hey guys, Just pondering the thought today and was wondering if (in the future) you were planning on releasing a version that doesn't require FSPassengers/ACARS to file PIREPs? Just a general question.. I think that'd be a nice idea as I know lots of people don't like to use ACARs/Passengers and just like to file the flightplan using a form. Just wonderin'.. Happy New Years, Austin. Quote
Simon VVair Posted January 1, 2010 Report Posted January 1, 2010 Ciao Austin.. well i think you haven't tested enough the system because IT DOES allready allow you to send pireps manually instead of using other programs.... but obviously people are free to sandbag.. if you love to have pilots with over 1000 hours of which only 10 are really flown you are welcome Quote
AustinWilliams Posted January 1, 2010 Author Report Posted January 1, 2010 Seems I am unaware on how to do this.. Quote
Moderators joeri Posted January 1, 2010 Moderators Report Posted January 1, 2010 indeed there is always the manual pireping but as Simon says you don't know if they are actualy flown Quote
AustinWilliams Posted January 1, 2010 Author Report Posted January 1, 2010 Right - well, it seems to work for some of the other airlines I've been a part of. There's a certain aspect of trust that goes into it I guess. Is there a code that has to be modded in some way to get this to work? Quote
Tom Posted January 1, 2010 Report Posted January 1, 2010 It's in Pilot Center, 3rd link in the Flight Operations section. http://www.yoursite.com/index.php/pireps/filepirep Quote
AustinWilliams Posted January 1, 2010 Author Report Posted January 1, 2010 Wait a second - I think I need to clarify. Is there a way to mod the PIREP page so that pilots can manually enter the departure/arrival airport ICAO codes, instead of having to choose from a list? Quote
Moderators joeri Posted January 1, 2010 Moderators Report Posted January 1, 2010 negative in a reallive airline it also has fixed airpords where it fly to ok its not so structual but normay they have a set off destinations to fly to same here you put them in the database and then the pilots can fly those airports. gr joeri Quote

Is there a way to mod the PIREP page so that pilots can manually enter the departure/arrival airport ICAO codes, instead of having to choose from a list? Hey, welcome to phpVMS. Yes, there is a mod for that. You can modify any page through a template, so you can customize it. You can also add "custom fields" for PIREPS for pilots to fill out when they file a PIREP. If you want to check it out, register at: http://dev.phpvms.net And you can poke around and see what's available. Quote
Moderators joeri Posted January 2, 2010 Moderators Report Posted January 2, 2010 sorry misinterpreted the whole question ;D still the booze that is working with the lack off sleep Quote
AustinWilliams Posted January 2, 2010 Author Report Posted January 2, 2010 @Nabeel - thanks bro, will check that out and see what I can do. @Joeri - no worries, should've typed out the question more clearly. Quote
