yeah i can imagine the workload allreadyim still a little hesitant, although i think/hope fsx "missions" will be easy enough to "make/program" - i think this will help out va's a lot at least thats what im hoping for, i think it would lend itself well to a charter type of opsthanksciao!Brian S

Brian Id say that if ur looking for realism dont look towards VA's for the answer. Ive researched the topic joined many va's and in the end they all dissapoint me. it is very difficult to make a va a realistic operation that can even scratch the surface of that of a real airline/cargo/charter operation. the so called good ones have a few elements that are always intriguing but ive had difficulty really establishing myself in one. theres always more to be desired. even if u were to set up a very realistic va with that would come a lot of regulations and the majority of people that join va's dont want many regulations. most people just want to get in and fly they dont want to have to read sop's take checkrides and written tests and go thru interviews like in the real deal. ive always tried to go by the "as real as it gets" theme and every va has come up short in that regard so I did the next best thing...i got my pilot's license :). good luck in your aviation endeavours, chris.
