Hello everybody!

I am having a go at starting a VA and would like prospective pilots to give it a look and join/post some feedback.

The address is:
www.mike-the-wanderer.co.uk

The VA is called Kiwi Air Scenic and is based (you guessed it) in New Zealand.

Look forward to hearing from new Kiwi pilots soon!

Thanks
Mike Walters

hey there firstly WELCOME to the forums....

now some feedback...

1. from a first impression looks pretty cool and a welcome change to the millions of european and USA va's launched..

2. nice site as you start the va but i would consider a more proffessionaly built site once u get things up and running this will only attract more pilots.

3. your aircraft a good choice and a fantastic livery possibly add a 737 if you can woul look extremely nice but the aircraft choices are up to you just seems like everyones flying the 737 in va's nowadays

4. you have a good route system in place at the moment do not over expand too fast wait until u have several commited pilots then offer new routes once every route on that list has been flown

a good start btw hope u stay afloat long enough to get quite a few pilots and then the rewards of owning a succesful airline will be nice

5.  Don't give up.  It takes a while to get your airline off to a start.  It's not impossible, it just takes some dedication.

As in real life, Daz.  The  737 is the most successful airliner in the history of aviation.   Wink

Thanks for the comments chaps!

Need to learn some more about site programming before it becomes more 'slick', but I'll get there!

Am working on the 737 repaint at the moment, will open up some international routes once the pilot roster fills out a bit.

Cheers
Mike

The Kiwi Air Scenic Site has now been updated to give it a much more professional look and to show our plans for the future.

Visit it soon, and see what's happening!
