My ideas would be:

Hubs in Austin (yes, Austin), Orlando, Seattle, Some Midwestern city (Detroit? Minneapolis?), New York JFK, London, Paris, Amsterdam, Sydney, and Berlin.

Aircraft: Boeing 747-8, Boeing 737-700 winglets, and Boeing 737-900.

I'd like to be the Austin hub commander. You can fly whatever, wherever. There is a lot of point-to-point flying. Also possible commuter service,
such as Bangor-Portland type stuff with Beack 1900d.

I agree with you on the everyone fly whatever they want. But I think that we might need more planes than that. That's three planes and if
we have 50 or more people join our VA, we'll have a shortage on planes. Especially if we implement the "once a person is using the
plane, others can't use it until that person is done, or unless there are other aircraft of that model in the fleet" idea.

[crowebird]

FSPVA is the va name, I laready registers http://www.fspva.com for our site

it should be up in 24 or less hours

[crowebird]

Also i will be flying the lds b767-300er

You can fly whatever you want, even if everybody else is at the exact same time. SWA, like I mentioned earlier, is one of the only carriers with its
head above water, and it flies ONE type of airplane. And I know an extremely successful VA after it.

me too

[WBHoenig]

And I think that adding the 767-whatever might also be a good idea, for shorter int'l and ultra-high-copacity domestic routes, such as Austin to
Toronto or New York to Seattle.

I am sorry to ask, but what does this new VA do for a pilot, if you can fly anywhere and with virtually any plane, except FSPax integration with a
pretty interface? I have that already here. What would be the purpose of a "hub"? Can you fly in career mode and truly "have a career"? Do you have liveries for all the proposed aircraft? What features are planned?

I am interested, but I just I thought I'd ask...

I vote for these planes:

LDS767-300ER (transcontinental and atlantic flights)
PMDG 737NG/8/900 (short haul flight )
PSS 777-200LR/300ER (long haul)
PMDG 747-400 (long haul)
Beech 1900D (commuter)
Super 80 (short haul)

these are all payware add-ons that I have spent $ on so it would be a shame not to be able to fly the for FSPVA.

I also vote for some props like Cessnas, Beechcraft, Mooney, Piper for bush flying.

Also, I think that we should have payware planes and default, because some people don't have payware. On the other hand, we know
that many people on this forum that own FsPassenges also have many add-ons.

sprocket, I'm sure we'll come up with some livery. Also we'll have a forum to help people out with learning to fly planes. Sometimes,
Rod's flying lessons aren't always clear. I wanted to have some ranking like a real airline. And that you will have to pass a checkride to
be certified for a certain plane. However, we are still voting. Nothing is decided. A hub will be like a city that you start your flight from, and
you end you flights their. Kind of like a home city. We were also thinking of combining all the money made by all our pilots to buy new
planes. The buying of planes will be decided and voted by the staff. It will be like a FsP Community where we can associate, fly, learn,
and build experience.

I hope I answered you questions. If you have more questions, PM me or just post.



btw, I would like to be the Chicago Hub manager (if there is one)
and maybe some other position on the staff.

If we get our own forum, like I previously mentioned, I'd like to be a mod

me too . I think a couple of people will be. We should be because we helped set up the VA(actually crowebird set it up). I think I helped
and so did you, Will. I also feel that Drew and Dutch should me mods at out forum. Jay and pagir should also be included. And
last but not least, crowebird.

but we'll just see how the voting will turn out.
