April 28, 20206 yr I am very happy to announce that Atlas Air Virtual is live! You may ask what sets us apart from all of the others? Well, I'm glad to tell the things that do set us apart from everyone else! The fleet, airports, and schedules are almost completely accurate to the latest month of data (and will be improved over time with new data and member feedback). There is a big focus on our community. We use Discord to allow a safe space for our pilots to communicate. We also use the platform to announce community events such as group flights. We have made tutorial videos to ensure that anyone can start flying as soon as they'd like. There is SimBrief integration for all flight schedules. This allows our pilots to easily get a flight briefing without having to make a new tab. We are proud to be partnered with UNICOM. UNICOM is a flight simulation community with thousands of virtual pilots who partake in many events such as group flights, landing competitions, and game nights. We share a very similar passion for what we do. We are proud to be using TFDI's smartCARS system to track our flights. You can sign up today at https://atlasair-virtual.com. You can join our Discord server at https://discord.gg/jzkqvft. If you have any questions, please contact us at either [email protected] or [email protected], or message us through our Discord server. Thank you for taking a look, and we hope to see you soon!
