    When the PMDG 777 is released I am thinking about joining a VA with the 777-200LR. I also want to transfer my previous hours over. I know the right amount of hours, all I need is the link. I use fsacars to track my flights also. I really don't know what to do as far as getting a link.

    Hi! Could you recommend me a German or European VA that has a bigger fleet of 737NG and uses them for shorter hops and flights across Europe? I'd like to spend more time flying the NGX. But the VA I am flying for at the moment, uses the 737 Classics on these kind of routes. And the Wilco 737 Evolution is not that kind of addon aircraft I'd like to spend so much time in... A nice ACARS/flight booking and reporting system would be highly appreciated, as well as many destinations in all parts of Europe. Thanks in advance for your effort!

  10. SparkJet Virtual announces acquisition and new flights! FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida, Feb. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- SparkJet Virtual has announced the acquisition of Pacific Blue Virtual during their press conference in Fort Lauderdale on Friday, February 15th, 2013.

With the acquisition SparkJet is planning to introduce about 20 frames, at a rate of two per month and is looking at new focus cities around the country. “Initially only five air…

    Hi all, first off I'll apologise for creating yet another thread regarding the Flight1 BN-2, but I have received fantastic help in the past from avid fans of this add on and I'd like to call upon your knowledge once again! I'm interested in joining a Virtual Airline, and as you'd probably have guessed by now I'd like to fly the BN-2, preferably in the UK but I would do other places in the world. The trouble I'm having is finding an existing Virtual Airline that will allow me to fly routes with this aircraft. If anybody knows of any Virtual Airlines, or is part of a group already that would be interested in accepting another member, to fly this bird I would appreciate it g…

    The first decent attempt in ages at a virtual airline equivalent of EasyJet has now died. It was called FlyEzy and its website was www.flyezy.co.uk. I think there was only one guy running it and he had some bigger issues in the real world but the site has been disabled for ages now so I'd say it's finished. Maybe someone can look at doing a decent EasyJet VA?
