We have a clear and easy rank structure.  We strive to make the experience as realistic as possible and we keep our pilots well-trained after their application and throughout the entire time they fly for our Virtual Airline.  See details below.

• First Officer - 0 hours required

After the application process, the new pilot will hold the First Officer rank and will be able to gain his first flight hours. The pilot has the Dash 8-Q400 type rating within our Virtual Airline. This allows you to fly all Dash8-Q400 routes without restrictions.

In order to fly other aircrafts within our Airline the pilot must pass type rating exams for each aircraft. The pilot may only fly one aircraft at a time and may only change the aircraft once a month and must pass the type rating exam again. If he wants to fly an airplane for which he already had the type rating, he doesn't have to take the exam again.
