Air Contractors Virtual Announced

Yesterday permission was received from Air Contractors, a real world cargo airline based in Dublin to create a virtual airline based on them. 
"We are extremely pleased with their decision and now we want to get moving along with our virtual airline, " said spokesperson Andrew Rob.

Air Contractors is a general services aircraft and cargo operation
based in Dublin.  They operate flights all over Europe and some
charters to northern Africa .
The airline operates a partially leased and expanding fleet of dedicated and varied aircraft mainly on sub charter contracts to DHL and FedEx.

"We plan to fully simulate Air Contractors operations throughout Europe.  This means we will keep all our routes, aircraft, and procedures up to date.  We will also include a full training system for all of our new pilots, " Mr. Rob reveiled.

"Our website will be up to date with the latest ACARS PIREP system which will make filing PIREPS so much easier for our pilots.  We plan to have this virtual airline fully operational by late February for our pilots to fly on the St Patrick Day event held by VATeir of VATSIM every year in mid-March."

This virtual airline is somewhat different to the average virtual airline as it will only have trained pilots flying for them and all real life procedures will be replicated to highest level of realism possible.

There are many Virtual Airlines out there based on a real world airline but we have set ourselves a goal to stand out and we will be doing this in several ways which we’ll explain further about in the future.

Air Contractors also has a number of open staff positions, including Human Resources Director, Operations Director and Training Director.

The website will be online within the next few weeks. Use one of the following email addresses to contact staff of this fresh airline: james_o_grady@hotmail.com or elalvirtual@hotmail.co.uk .
