Won't y'all stop by and say Howdy? TexAir had a great time making its return and is operating once again at full capacity. But now as we say goodbye to our past and look to our future, we're in need of some pilots. We accept PIREPs via FSPassengers, FSAcars, kAcars, XAcars, and manual forms. File your first one within 14 days, and after that only 1 every 90 days. No rank restrictions, and we even allow equipment swaps & subs. Our schedule is as big as Texas and offers something for all skill levels. Click here to begin our application process. It's great that we have begun accepting pilot applications, but we still have a lot of staff positions that need to be filled. We want to bring in even more options and features for our pilots, but none of that can happen without help from some great individuals willing to lend us their time and skills. Please visit our Staff page to see what is available. After that, please click here to see detailed position descriptions and learn how to apply. We hope to see many new faces in the near future, and as always, Come Fly the Texas-friendly skies! -
Are cloudy skies looming because summer's coming to a close, and the reality of having to return to work or school getting you down? We're not letting that happen at TexAir. Every day means blue skies in the Texas-friendly skies! But Texas-friendly skies aren't just over Texas, no! We've got hubs all over the country with a diverse fleet to operate scheduled flights. But in case you want to remind yourself of that great summer getaway when you're knee deep in assignments, we have a great charter subsidiary to get you in all the planes you love, and to the places big birds can't necessarily go. We want our pilots to be the best they can be, so we also entered into an exclusive training partnership with VATSTAR to help our pilots achieve their dreams. That doesn't come without rewards, either! We offer "fast track" hours and profile ribbons for every course completed. Did I mention that our Fleet Modernization Program is in full effect? Just this weekend, we took delivery of our gorgeous new 738 and 752 repaints. Have a look for yourself. In addition to smiling pilots, we're also looking for some well qualified individuals to fill a few staff positions. Specifically, we need someone to take on the role of our Brand Manager position - which is considered a combination of both branding and marketing. We also need to fill our Fleet Manager position - which should be noted will not have to complete repaints for us at the moment as we've already negotiated that, we just need someone around to help us test deliveries and troubleshoot pilot issues. (Repaints may be discussed down the road.) And yes, we do have a few Hub Manager slots still open, as well. If you may be interested in any of these and have applicable experience, swing by the Staff page to get an idea of what we need and how to apply. So stop on by, take a look at what we're all about, and say Howdy! If you like what you see, go on and apply! TexAir Virtual Airlines

Howdy once again from the Texas-friendly skies! We're still looking for fresh, new faces for our dedicated family of av geeks to converse and fly with. Here's a refresher of some of the many features we offer: - Our Fleet Modernization Project is almost near completion and well ahead of schedule! We have an amazing, new, fresh livery on our airframes, and we're even introducing a few new ones. - Our new paints include both freeware & payware models or textures for all of our aircraft (FSX only). - We fully support Microsoft Flight Simulator X, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004; and we partially support Prepar3d with a wide variety of ACARS clients to choose from, including smartCARS. - We have a newly streamlined registration & entrance exam process. - We have quite a few fun events in the works, and they're not all about flying big iron either. - We have a legacy carrier inspired, world class schedule. - Hubs in AUS, DEN, LAS, PDX, MSP, IAD, & TPA. - Don't want to fly the schedule and/or primary fleet? We have a subsidiary charter brand to allow more flight freedom. - No rank restrictions! Fly any of our aircraft at any time. - 1st PIREP due in 14 days; only 1 flight due every 90 days after that. - Brush up on your skills with our training partner VATSTAR. - Pilot awards for hours, types, training, & other achievements. - We're now on social media! (See below) We'd also like to fill a few staff positions so that we can focus more closely on future projects. Among those open, we are especially interested in filling our Brand Manager position with a well qualified individual. This position is a combination of both branding & marketing; primarily we need someone that has both time & experience to manage our recruitment campaigns & social media outlets - this includes occasional image and video promotions. If interested, please visit our Staff page to get started. For applicants with less time or experience, we do have other openings, including a few Hub Manager positions - these make great "entry level" positions. Check the same staff page as above for more info. So if you're interested as a pilot, staff member, av geek, Texan, or just in general, give us a holler.

It is a great pleasure to announce that TexAir Virtual Airlines has returned to the virtual skies after a long hiatus. We have a great, fully-functional, new website (at our old location texairvirtual.org I might add) with lots of features and awards for pilots to pursue. We return with the same all-Boeing mainline fleet and that one-of-a-kind massive flight schedule similar to that of a legacy carrier, but with lots of routes no one flies thrown in. We've upgraded our terminals at all of our old hubs in Austin, Denver, Las Vegas, Portland, Minneapolis, Washington, and Tampa - once again making it obvious why everything is bigger about Texas. What has changed is our attitude towards flying and structure in general. We don't have a very large staff design (but with that said do have some vacant positions that need filling), we no longer restrict flights or aircraft based on rank, and our activity polices are extremely relaxed (1 flight every 90 days). Pilots can file via FSPassengers, XAcars, or online manual form (we hope to support more systems in the near future). We will be adding a forum in the next day or two; and with enough interest, we may consider a dedicated TeamSpeak server and some other great add-on features. And yes, we even have an amazing new livery design in the works. We could certainly use some pilots, though! Won't you come by and say Howdy? (Any of our pre-hiatus members are more than welcome to sign up as well - we even give an award for y'all.) vPress Release: Based in Austin, TexAir is a world-class simulated carrier hell-bent on connecting Texas with the rest of the world. We also have hubs in Denver, Las Vegas, Portland, Minneapolis, Washington, and Tampa - making it easy to see everything really is bigger about Texas. We also offer a grand flight schedule comparable to real world legacy carriers, but with many routes that no one else flies thrown in. We have an friendly atmosphere, minimal requirements, lots of options, and lots of awards. So come by and say Howdy, Y'all!
