Virtual United Airlines (virtualua.org) Jan 2014 Press Release
Welcome to 2014 here at Virtual United! We have some big news to start you off with so let’s get started!
The first thing you probably noticed is our new logo. Yes, we are still the same www.virtualua.org but we decided to undergo a new corporate rebranding to provide a more modern and sophisticated look. This new logo comes with several alternate versions for publications and forum signatures so stay tuned. We also created several new features for our members. These include a brand new forums, a pilot welcome package with desktop wallpapers and FS splashscreens, and lots more on the way for the new year!
Speaking of development, we are starting off the year with a bang. In the coming weeks, we will release another promotional video as well as some videos in coordination with our awesome partners. Probably the largest item on the agenda is a new face for Virtual United. We will be starting the process of revamping our current site to make it more functional and even give our pilots some features never before seen at a virtual airline. Stay tuned for more!
So the question rises, why all of these new updates? Is it just a bunch of new year resolutions? Of course not! Today we would like to announce some BIG news. After several months of negotiations and hard work, we have received official recognition from United Airlines, Inc. What does this mean for you, our pilots? Well it means now we have more resources to continue providing what we have done in the past year, just expect a lot more of it! This will include: product giveaways, contests with great prizes, discounts to our partners’ websites, and maybe even a real world convention for all of Virtual United’s staff and members!
Now the numbers. We are getting down to business here at Virtual United and our numbers are Continue reading
New VAFlash Website Launched!
As you may have noticed, we have finally got around to rebranding our website. While I would not consider this new design “complete”, I thought it made sense to just go ahead and change the site before the new year. It’s already been a year and a month since I announced the the website rebranding! Many things contributed to the postponement of the redesign but, I am glad that it’s finally started. I believe the new design will assist us with branching out to do reviews, editorials, and to better serve the Flight Sim Community as a whole.
I hope you like what I’ve come up with, I’m certainly not a professional designer! I wanted to keep it simple yet more functional with more space dedicated to news and future content. Thanks to all our readers and the virtual airlines who post on VAFlash! I hope each and every one of you, your pilots, and staff have a very successful and productive new year!

Website Status and Site Rebranding
I wanted to take the time to thank all who have wished me well on my surgery in comments and all the emails I have received. They were definitely appreciated and helped keep my spirits high during my recovery. My recovery took longer than anticipated but my arm is much better. :) Thanks to everyone for their patience and support during my downtime..
Now for the real news of the day! As you can see from the logo above, VAFlash will be undergoing a transformation of sorts. The whole site will be redesigned and launched within a couple/few weeks. I will also be expanding the VaFlash staff from one to many! In addition to expanding beyond a one man shop, we will also be expanding VAFlash to include hardware and software reviews, editorials, and basically everything and anything related to Flight Simulation. This has been in the plans for quite some time but was delayed due to multiple reasons.
Look for more information to come within the following days and weeks! 
Best Regards,

Virtual Military Airlift Command Rebrands itself to Commissioned Air Transport Services
Formally founded as VMAC Virtual Military Airlift Command in April, 2009 realized over the course of these many months, the name did not reflect the mission statement of the program. VMAC, never reflected a command of the US Air Force as it was representative of a multi-national air transport command. Over time this became unsettling as there was never a defined mission stating the goals of VMAC. Consequently there were a host of changes and updates to the site and it’s documentation that didn’t sit well with many. Continue reading
