I am very interested in flying with a virtual airline. What type of software is required to do so, and are there free virtual airlines that I can apply for? I took the Singapore Airlines entrance exam and passed with a 72, so Im sure I could be accepted somewhere. I have a DSL connection, but not sure what the specs are to get started. Any and all info is appreciated. Thanks

For most of the VA's you won't need hardly any special software, some may require you to use Teamspeak or download some of their own planes & livery's.

Have a look in the Virtual Airlines Events & Messages forum - there's lots of info in there.

Cheers,

Nobleair many hubs around the world. I'm at Boston, some others that I can think of are Gatwick, Frankfurt am Main, Honolulu, Los Angeles, Dallas-Ft. Worth (I think), and one in Oceana, Sydney comes to mind. All the hubs are listed here.

Hi. I saw this thread and it's the same question I had so didn't see much point in starting another.

I'm visually impaired and so trawling the net is sometimes difficult - just trying to say that any help is very gratefully accepted.

I just like flying for fun. Yes, I do like learning about the technical side of flying, I love flight planning and navigation etc, but I'm not looking for something where you're expected to be perfect (or as near to it). I don't get all that much time to fly, so I'm just looking for an airline, preferrably UK/Europe based and that does long haul flights where I can fly, submit my flights what whatever stats they may have and just generally have fun chatting with other flyers on forums, etc. An airline that doesn't have any complicated multiplayer, where I can just fly on my own and upload the stats whenever would be great.

Anyone got anything like that which fits the bill?

Once again thank you very much for your help.

Hussein.

Hussein, such an airline is Ionathan Airlines. You can check us out here:
http://users.forthnet.gr/ath/kekrops/Ionathan/Home.htm

We fly in an economic simulate environment implemented by FlyNet (our host). Our pilots can fly offline and with a time compression if they wish of up to 4x for short/medium range flights and up to 8x for long range ones.
We have two Hubs in Greece (Athens and Thessaloniki) and one Hub in London. We have domestic flights all aroung Greece and UK, a lot of international flights around Europe and a good number of flights to other continents.

We operate Boeings (737, 757, 747), Airbuses (A319, A333), Canadairs (CRJ-200), ATR-72s, Cessna Grand Caravans and DC3s.

About pilot skills we only ask not to crash and to load the correct amount of fuel before your flight about which we offer helpful suggestions. We only have this simple requirements as it has an impact in our virtual budget. Also, out pilots receive virtual salary for their completed flights provided they were profitable for the VA.

About PIREPS you don't have to submit them yourself as they are autimatically sent by FlyNet's ACARS system and of course we have a forum for discussions and a friendly/relaxing environment without any obligation for flying frequently.

We will be glad to accept you in our roster.
