Damn this thread delivers.

I'm with Metro752 on this one.

Although he holds a glider pilot's license, John, who has clocked up around 2,500 hours on the simulator, claims he wasn't good enough at math to fly proper planes. "This is the next best thing," he says of the 747-400 he has assembled in his spare bedroom, which has a pair of car seats for the captain and first officer to park their butts on.

Math? This is not 1933.

Math? This is not 1933.

Nope. But it probably is the JAA.

I was in Borders the other day and saw magazines entitled PC Pilot and Computer Pilot. Amazing...

Both are actually awesome mags...for those who FS a lot.

:note - In a past life I was part of a 'virtual airline':

i don't see how them doing this is any different then someone play World of Warcraft thinking they are some super elf or some crap. Why crap on something they obviously enjoy. Not everyone makes a career out of flying....not everyone is medically qualified....not everyone is old enough...I'm sure a majority of them are 14 to 15 year olds who are just having some fun. Hard to believe for some of you but alot of people out there still think what you do for a living is cool

While it is fun to tease the guys that take it a little to far, some of you are way to concerned with what others do with their time.
To some people what we do-being pilots-is cool, I know it is hard for many of you to understand but we have jobs that almost every other male out there had thought about doing at some point in their lives.

Remember Skybus?.....gone as soon as oil went up...someone will always be starting up something, especially with "low oil prices for now"

 

[Jetjockey]

Do they get 'virtual' paychecks just like real regional airline pilots?

Yeah...only thing is...they make more than I did!

 

[Amish RakeFight]

Where's the FlightInfo virtual airline.

I see a lot of funny ideas coming out of that proposal...

JO would be at the helm right?

Could I just wear a back-pack instead of having a flight kit?

 

[Amish RakeFight]

We could JM G-force and permit him to go below minimums...Avbug could be CP and scold everyone...

 

[livin'thesim]

I suggest that the FlightInfo virtual airline get a proper start:

First order of business is to elect a virtual MEC and pick the negotiating committee. I want full pay from the first day.

In fact, lets dispense with the virtual airline altogether and just have the virtual union instead.

That'll be a lot more fun. We can argue into eternity about who is getting ahead at whose expense, and who is the next-closest thing to a scab.

Oh wait, we accomplish that here daily right now.

Disregard.
