Introducing VirtualEI
Virtualei.net has opened for membership. This new VA mirrors the real world Aer Lingus and is run by previous members of Caal Airways which closed 14th May 2017 after 6 years of operations.
There is a small and simple entrance exam to be taken to become a member and your first flight must be completed within 7 days of joining. The member must then complete 1 flight every 30 days.

Introducing TexAir Virtual Airlines
TexAir Virtual Airlines is focused on simulating an imagined world-class, legacy-style air carrier rooted deeply in its Texas heritage. We are a friendly, family-like gathering of virtual aviators intent on keeping things relaxed, but also realistic. We are pilot-centric in that we prefer not to simulate the ‘corporate’ side of an airline, focusing only on the daily operation itself. Lastly, our growth is entirely dependent on pilot interest and contributions. We do not grow unless our community of pilots wants us to grow, by growing itself and showing genuine interest.
