Simviation Forums

I know there is some simulated airlines. how does it work?

You join the virtual airline by giving your name and an E-Mail address.  They then add your name to their list of Pilots.  Each airline will have one or more Hubs (airports).  You select which one you would like as your home base (eg Belfast UK) and then check the schedule of flights.  The schedule will have a list of available flights, one line may look like this

Flight Number: SMOKE001
Destination:  London City(EGLC)
Aircraft Type: B717-400
GMT Depart Time 06.45
Flight Time 1.20 Hours
Arrival Time 08.05

Return

Flight Number: SMOKE002
Destination:  Belfast
Aircraft Type: B717-400
GMT Depart Time 08.45
Flight Time 1.20 Hours
Arrival Time 10.05

If you decide to do this flight you would go into create flight in FS2k2 and set the start time to 06.00 and fly an IFR flight Belfast to London City, possibly with real world weather.  The return leg is usually necessary as well as you have to get back to your home airport somehow.  On completion of the flight go to the airlines' web site and you will find somewhere a "PIREP" form, which is an acronym for PIlots REPort.  Fill this in with the details they require and you will then be credited with the hours you logged for the flight.  Many airlines have a promotions policy that means you cannot fly the big multi engined jets without first having logged a few hundred hours.

I hope this helps.

There are literally hundreds of VA's out there, but if you're interested in Hyperion Airways (mine), you're more than welcome to get more information by emailing us at operations@flyhyperion.tk

Good luck with whoever you choose!

thanks for the informations.

hyperion I am perhaps interested in your proposition
If have you got a site where I will find info from your companie?

I have allways been interested in VA's but I am worryed that I am not a good enough pilot does it matter if you crash???????

Thanks

I would like to find an airlines which use Falcon 50  orfalcon 7x (news one you can have on escadrille.free.fr)
and flight with dauphin helicopter if  possible
and wich heavy it is

Well it does matter if you crash, you would not have complete the flight. It wouldn't count.

Here is my VA, www.flygma.com

My VA is ran by Erick Ortiz and Chriss Trott and other staff members. The airline has 5 or more hubs. The hubs are KMCO, KBNA, Dallas *(forgot the code) KBOS and another one. Each with a lot of flights. You start with easy airplanes and work your way up the ladder. They can go from to the Jetstream 41 to the CRJ and A320. There is also training available for first timers directed by Tim Laswell. The classes teach how to correctly connect to VATSIM, how to correctly interact with ATC ( like who to contact first ) and other things like ILS. I enjoy flying a lot in it. It is for the US so if you are interested come on and join. www.flygma.com

hikariken, hyperion is a GREAT virtual Airline, they only started up a few weeks ago, but i saw they were on the main page of www.fsinflight.com pretty major i think there website is www.flyhyperion.tk i think u can e-mail them at hyperionops@yahoo.com


(scott lmao)

NO, we weren't on the cover of FSInflight.  We were front page of the Flight Simulator Internet News Network.

(They've got a sim-version of EVERYTHING don't they?  lol)

Oh yeah, and anyone interested can email for more information:


operations@flyhyperion.tk


or check us out on the web at www.flyhyperion.tk

I once signed up for a VA, but after about 25 hours of flight time, they closed down

Now i'm happy flying where and what I want!

Yes, being GA is always great. I am the kind of people who are vitually staying at a city. Right now I am in my Hub in Orlando after a flight from Panama City in my JS-41.....Now, i don't start FS at NY or JAX, only at MCO, like i was there. I fly to other places but always make sure to come back to MCO if i am going to be a pilot for my VA. I  think its pretty cool. I can always sqeez in some flights to Atlanta or CLT

I always start a flight where I left off. Exceptions are rarely if ever made

here is the deal. I would like to find a virtual Ailines. but I can't play Fs2002 on the web because the game is not on the same computer.
and I would like to fly a dassault falcon50 if possible
.
may you do me some proposal?

thanks

Just a suggestion, but is something preventing you from installing FS on the web-ready computer?  (Work, computer specs, etc)

There are VA's that would allow you to fly offline, however, once I discovered flying with live, voice ATC, the game just isn't the same any other way.  lol
