Our Mission

Royal Dutch Virtual operates with a unique model of operating as closely to KLM as possible while still permitting some of the positive aspects of flight simulation to shine through.  Our mission is to provide our pilots with a realistic, organized, professional and fun atmosphere where one can enjoy the pleasure of growing as a pilot to a level similar of that of an airline pilot in a community environment.

While we strive for excellence, we do embrace a very important concept that while every attempt is made to operate as a real airline, flights are still done in simulators and the number one priority is to have fun.

Flight Points (FiPo)

Royal Dutch Virtual is taking a new approach to handling pilot promotions. To remain more realistic, pilots are not promoted solely on hours, but also Flight Points. Flight Points are awarded every flight based on both the time enroute and the Flight Score (flight quality score in the form of a percentage – with the ability to go over 100% in some circumstances). This allows pilots to be promoted as one would in the real world.

Flight Network

KLM's strength lies in the tightly-knit, worldwide network it has built up with its partners. It would only be correct to replicate the same in the Virtual Airline with the added value of alliances. As such, pilots are able to fly all KLM flights including those carried out by partners through codeshare agreements. KLM's global reach spans to over 1,000 destinations worldwide reachable by both direct flights and in cooperation with its partners.

Operations Control Center

The Royal Dutch Virtual Operational Control Center (OCC) provides our crew members with the resources and planning capabilities to perform their duties. From assisting in finding an appropriate flight to reviewing flight performance the OCC covers it all. Extensive flight briefings are available containing Weather, NOTAMs, Flight Restrictions, Automated Routing, Automated Weight and Balance and more.
