Caal Airways Virtual Monthly Update for February 2012
Time for my monthly report again. Va central and PHPVMS are still having server problems so I cannot access some information that I would usually include in my report. February saw us welcome a new staff member Rhys Barber as the new Caal Airways Training director.
We secured partnership with VATSAF and are still waiting to hear from VATUSA. I am hopeing that this will encourage new pilots from these regions as they are a little under represented in the VA.
We also became six months old in February a significant milestone and all members should be proud of what we have achieved. I am looking forward to the next six months and the lead up to our birthday. We will be holding a birthday event and the planning for that will be starting soon. Our new callsign CLOVER is working well on Vatsim and the controllers are now starting to associate NIR with CLOVER in which is great news. Still add it in your remarks of your flight plan though as this helps controllers who are not familiar with us.
The USA operations manager is still looking for a hub Continue reading

freshJet Celebrates One Year of Operations
On February 25th 2011, Harris Brandon pulled back on the sidestick as his
Airbus A320, G-FRSX, rotated off of Glasgow Airport’s runway with 153 passengers on board bound for Belfast. One year later, we have successfully operated over 450 flights, reached 1000 hours and carried nearly 70,000 passengers across a total distance of over 300,000 miles. We would like to congratulate all the crew at freshJet on this excellent achievement.
“It’s been an exciting 12 months and I’d like to say a big thank you to all the freshJet pilots who put in the time and effort to make us who we are today. I’d like to thank all of the staff members who made it all happen, and who also had the time to put in the hours to contribute to the airline and I hope we can keep up the efforts to keep us going in the future.”
