  1. Hi all, been scouring for answer for for a while this but can't seem to find anything (sorry if it's been asked): not all, but some (most notably the A320) models appear invisible in the sim, besides navigation lights. I can see that traffic exists on the AIG Traffic Controller, and even on TCAS, but when I look outside, I don't see anything besides nav lights. Any ideas?
  2. San Diego, CA - IntelliJet, the newest U.S. start-up airline, is set to begin operations on June 10th from it's base at San Diego-Lindbergh Field. The inaugural flight, ITJ150 between SAN and SFO, will officially mark the beginning of operations for the low-cost carrier. "We are really excited," said IntelliJet CEO Andrew De Forest. "We have been working extremely hard to get to this point, and we can't wait to show our supporters what we have to offer." The company's fleet of three Boeing 737-800's arrived in San Diego over the last week, and are currently undergoing final preparations to begin revenue service.

IntelliJet seeks to serve up to 25 cities within it's first year of operations. "There are a lot of great markets out there." said CEO De Forest. "Obviously it's hard to reach them all with only three aircraft. That's why were going to be aggressive in our expansion strategies."

  3. Today, IntelliJet Virtual Airlines is pleased to preview the beta version of their custom ACARS and flight dispatching system. From the beginning, IntelliJet has sought to break the mold of other virtual airlines by offering a unique and realistic experience with a heavy emphasis on attention to detail. We have been working very hard over the last several weeks perfecting the smallest details, including a complete rewrite of the ACARS program. So without further adieu, I'm pleased to introduce: IntelliCARS IntelliCARS is the heart of flight operations at IntelliJet. Pilots have the ability to dispatch flights from the ACARS program or the company website. IntelliCARS will load these flights and generate passenger, cargo, and fuel loads for them. Pilots then have the ability to change these values as they see fit. During the flight, updates are periodically sent to the server to allow flight tracking through your web browser. The website flight tracker seamlessly updates the aircraft's position without ever reloading the page. For each flight, our ACARS program generates custom PDF dispatch sheets with load, fuel, and weather information. These sheets are based off real-world airline dispatch sheets. Lastly, we have been working on developing SOPs, standard checklists, and emergency checklists. Here is a preview of our standard B737NG checklist. Thank you for taking the time to read our update. Please stay tuned for further news regarding our launch. At the present time, we are anticipating a mid-June opening. Feedback, comments, and inquiries are always welcome. Please e-mail ceo@flyintellijet.com.
  4. San Diego, CA – The Department of Transportation (DOT) has granted Intellijet Airlines final approval to begin operations. The announcement comes after months of regulatory compliance checks for the newly-formed FAR Part 121 low-cost carrier. “This is a huge step, obviously there’s still a lot of work ahead of us, but we’re much closer to getting off the ground,” said Intellijet CEO Ed Warwick. “We’ve been working around the clock to make sure the DOT had everything they needed and we’re very pleased with their decision.” IntelliJet is set to receive three Boeing 737-800s on lease from Air Lease Corporation, and is currently engaged in negotiations to receive an additional aircraft by mid-summer. These aircraft will be used to serve 16 destinations throughout the United States and Mexico from the company’s base in San Diego (SAN). The company is aiming to begin scheduled flights as early as June. About Us - IntelliJet is a high-fidelity virtual airline with an emphasis on realism. We will operate a fleet of B737-800s from our base in San Diego, CA. Airline expansion and growth will be based on realistic financial models. At launch, IntelliJet plans on having an extensive flight dispatch system with fuel, route, and performance calculations built into both the company website and the custom-built ACARS system. The airline will support the PMDG 737NGX. Crew members will have access to extensive airline documentation including training, checklists, and standard operating procedures. Hiring - We are looking for applicants to help us maintain our high standard of realism. At the time, IntelliJet is seeking a San Diego hub manager, a B737-800 chief pilot, an operations manager, and a marketing director. Previous experience is preferred. Interested applicants can send their résumés to ceo@flyintellijet.com.
  5. Hello, Does anyone know of a program that will reduce the number of AI go-arounds at busy airports? I used to use AISmooth for FSX, but it is not compatible with P3D and the number of go-arounds is really starting to bother me. Thanks!
  6. Hello, With the release of the PMDG 777, I was interested in joining a realistic VA that operates the 777. Ideally, the VA should be one which accepts transfer hours from Vataware, as I don't really want to start at the bottom. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction!
  7. Hello, I am a front-end/back-end web developer and I'm looking for a VA that needs a website, or has one and is in need of an upgrade. I'm a professional designer, and can show you some of my work if you'd like. Some things I can do: PHP/MySQL AJAX JavaScript HTML/CSS Please send me a PM for more details!
  8. Yea, I tried that, unfortunately no luck. Since I only had the PMDG NGX installed I just went ahead and reinstalled and it looks like everything is fine now.
  9. Hello AVSIM, Firstly, my main problem is that all my aircraft are invisible! I have no idea what caused this, all I have installed are some add-on sceneries and the PMDG NGX. I had done several flights today and when I fired up the sim, I just started getting this and I have no idea why. The only thing I installed between flights was a DiVX codec, but I uninstalled it after I started having issues. Here are my specs: Windows 7 64-bitAMD Phenom II X4 965 3.70GHz Quadcore8gb RAMGeForce GTX480 I attached some pictures for clarification.
  10. As far as I know, the A/P disengages a few seconds before touchdown, so maybe that is the issue? EDIT: Actually, I think I misread the post
  11. I use the printer at work to print out all the manuals and such. Hope my company doesn't get mad! :(
  12. I was having an issue where when I pressed the exit button after a flight, I would get a CTD message. It wasn't really that big of a deal, as I'm exiting anyway, but when I restart I receive one CTD then everything carries on normally.
  13. Hello, Not sure if anyone has experienced this or is this is even an issue regarding the NGX, but tonight I was doing an ILS on 34L at KDEN and came up about 200~250 feet short of the runway. The PAPI lights were all showing red, however my glideslope was right on. Is this perhaps an issue with the simulator, or is it aircraft related? Regards,Andrew De Forest
  14. Well I paid $70 for the airplane then turned around and paid another $1000 the next day for a brand new computer so I could get the most of this beast (And the painful thing is, I haven't been able to play with either yet!)
