Well i fly for http://www.thomsonvirtual.com/ which i found is the best VA i have ever been with, Its just family.

To even get in you need to take a test. Great Events, Theres even a Thomson event going on VATSIM right now as i speak.

Great VA & great real life airline.

I am very interested in your VA. I am just trying to understand how it all works. When i go into my game do I have to go to multiplayer to do the scheduled flights?

no VAFS4 is a automated acars system that runs outside of flight simulator....you turn on vafs4 turn on flight sim select a flight on vafs4, and fly... once you land it records all your stats all you do is upload when done and go on to your next flight......you can see more by going the VAFS4 web page....oh by the way the main guy Mike (owner and designer of vafs) liked our va so much he decided to join and be a pilot with us Very Happy
