YSFlight Headquarters

I don't know how I can help, but I'd be happy to. Even if it's just helping out on maintaining GitHub.

Damn. This was certainly not the news I wanted to return to. Gunny was an absolute legend in this community and will be severely missed. Per his wishes, some months (years?) back I published his entire collection of addons here on the site. He was so dedicated to this community that he mailed the fi...

Well this sounds fun. Count me in for the ATC session.

The budget doc has been updated as of 05/10/2017.

I'll throw a note in my calendar, I'd love to be there if I can.

I'd seriously consider joining a VA if something like this was put in place. When the first one came out with certification, VAs were extremely popular and activity was huge. Hell, even VAs were starting their own servers! I don't want to start any rumors or anything, but I heard someone picked up ...

This is YSFlight. You can do whatever you want!

My only word of advice/caution is that your fleet will be easily mistaken for active military aircraft and will likely be targeted. Make sure your passengers are up for a good dogfight, and be sure to keep the rules of engagement in mind.

I heard about this. I do wish the media would stop calling it a "hacking"... all you need is a decent handheld aviation radio and the cajones to try it. But yeah, this guy needs to get the max. They should probably also rack up more charges against him based simply on the number of people ...

It will feel different, especially on takeoff and landing. In the air, you might not even notice unless you do maneuvers. How long was the flight? Usually you can't even get 4 people (kids are an exception) in the plane without going over limits in the 172. It was just over 1 hour (I had about 30 m...

@wingsfan99 Did it feel as you expected my friend?The handling and the exhilaration I mean.Or was this not the first time? This was the first time. It felt almost exactly how I expected, except that I didn't expect quite as much resistance and stability in the yoke. We had two passengers (my dad an...

Here's something I did this past weekend, just got all the photos uploaded... took my "Discovery flight" before beginning private pilot lessons. Here is me flying N5399K out of 06C (from the right seat). Can't wait for the first official lesson in a week or so. Click the photo for the full...

The budget doc has been updated as of 8/1/2016. August will be the last month of our fiscal year -- expect next month to be a Year End report.

Hello all!

I'm looking to get back into YS and my old home, the Civilian subforum I just wanted to get a read on the community and figure out what people are looking for nowadays. The poll runs for 7 days and you can choose up to 3 options.

I noticed another topic about Ed Force One, the 747-400 used by heavy metal band Iron Maiden (who, for those who might not know, is my favorite band of all time) while on tour. Bruce Dickinson, the lead singer for the band, is also a commercial pilot and owns a very successful aviation maintenance c...

Oh shit YS WAR! I was a "referee plane" or whatever we called it! That was so much fun. Welcome back.

The budget doc has been updated for January 2016. Same link from the original post. Comment directly on the spreadsheet if you have any questions. One thing to note, I have added a separate "virtual account" for our Marketing team. The balance is currently $50, which is the equivalent of a...

I have updated the budget doc w/ numbers from December 2015. You can still use the link from the original post. Feel free to leave comments on the document if you have any questions.

Click here to view the budget report on Google Drive TL;DR: We have $362.20 in PayPal. That will decrease if I ever get a PM from those who signed up for First Class with a shirt size and mailing address. You may see this sheet adjust when I receive this month's advertising numbers from Eric. If yo...

Yeah, most of what's sitting in the account right now is not from the old first class program, it's from a handful of very large (and incredibly generous) donations from a couple of users.

Wait no stickers? This is outrageous! How can you have a paid membership with no stickers! Also do you accept Google Wallet? Would people prefer stickers over shirts? If so we can make that happen. And no, we can't accept it directly but if you have the Google wallet debit card you can run that thr...
