New PIREP systemThomas Cook Virtual Airlines Belgium is introducing a new AND automated pirep and ranking system. The new system is completely developed within the own company and is exclusively copyrighted for Thomas Cook Virtual Airlines Belgium. We've been working on the system for several weeks and it is finally completed now. Flight reports will be handled automatically, there is a personal logbook, information on the departure and destination airport etc.We also introduce a new ranking system, the old ranks will dissapear and new, more realistic ranks will come in place. From now, we will have 2 career modes:1. Airbus A320 pilot-First Officer-Senior Flight Officer-Captain2. Boeing 757 pilot-First Officer-Senior Flight Officer-CaptainClimbing in rank is no longer related to the flown hours. When you pass a certain required number of hours you can perform a checkride. When you pass the checkride, you will be promoted. (This means you can stay a FO as long as you want). The checkrides are MSFS flight video's of a certain given flight which you will have to send to us. But as this feature is not operational yet, more about this matter later... We are still developping this procedure and will inform you as soon as possible about it. This system will bring a great improvement to our VA, both in realism and operations.Very special and new also is the Personal Area. On these pages you can change your profile the way you like it, you can have a look at your last flown flights AND there also is the logbook!
