Welcome Derek Jagar / President Eastern Airlines Virtual

Hey Everyone - Derek has agreed to take over the day to day operations of the VA.  Eastern needs leadership that understands the needs and wants of fellow Simmers.  I have asked Derek to work on growing the membership. That is no easy task and he will need your help. Spread the word.  I have also asked that we start a weekly VATSIM event in addition to the Sunday Night Flights he currently organizes.

Look for the new EVENTS menu item across the top. We will be publishing events as they are organized.

Finally, I am not leaving the VA. I will still maintain and active roll in the administration of the website code and such. I will still fly as I enjoy that too. 

This is exciting times, lets regrow EAV into a thriving VA again.

Please send a note to Derek congratulating him.

Website Frontpage

I would like some feedback about the frontpage, referred to as the dashboard.  I it too busy?  If you have an opinion as to what could be removed from that page, let me know. I am trying to give you all what you want, maybe moving similar "boxes" to their own page freeing up the dashboard page for a cleaner look?

 

Please provide feedback.  Coding time is approaching and their are some cool modules I will be adding.  I want to advertise and somewhat automate the Sunday weekly flight and I would also like to start flting on Vatsim with another night dedicated to a Vatsim Flight night.

Aircraft Transfer has been set to FREE

Effective immediately, you can now transfer an aircraft to your current location free of charge.  The only caveat to this is the following;

Pilot#1 lands at KATL and plans to take the plane he or she just arrived in onto the next destination.  Pilot #2 decides to transfer a plan from KATL, the plane Pilot #1 was going to use. Now Pilot #1 has no aircraft and must then transfer one to his location.  So I addressed this by putting a 1 hour FREEZE after Engine shutdown. During the freeze period that aircraft will not transfer out.

 

Enjoy free aircraft transfers and thank Dan King for making the suggestion.
