Route network and Schedule based on real world network and schedules of Ukrainian airlines. Airlines Fleet consists of airliners used by real airlines and includes Airbus A320 and A321, Boeing B737 Classic, B737NG and B767, Embraer E145 and E190, some other airliners. system provides sufficient information to perform flights within VATSIM and IVAO network. We are not asking pilot to know aircraft documentation in details, aerodynamics, navigation, meteorology and all other necessary stuff. Each individual have his own understanding to fly "as real as it gets" and there are a lot of available information for self education through internet. We appreciate our pilots to know aircraft, local procedures and all basic information necessary to perform professional and safe online flights. is open for all pilots! Latest News No news Short Manual System Description Call Sign Booking and Flying Regular Schedule Routes Flight Plan Dispatch Pilot and Plane Location Weather System Description ( VAU ) emulates online operations of Ukrainian airlines in VATSIM and IVAO environments. Pilots, having proper permissions, could fly any regular flight on behalf of any airlines. Special subdivision Challenge Aero was created especially for private charter flights. Own Software designed to simplify the process of preflight preparation by providing the following services to the pilot: Flight route calculation including Flight Plan according to latest AIRAC Fuel calculation for each scheduled flight for major aircraft types Automatic booking of flight into VATSIM Actual charts and weather information (METAR, TAF) for departure and destination airports Upon completion of flight, the pilot get detailed information about the flight on Google Maps. Required Software to fly with : Microsoft FS2004 or Microsoft FSX (X-Plane is partially supported) Registered version of FSUIPC (XPUIPC for X-Plane) vPilot, FSInn or SquawkBox for VATSIM flights (IvAp for IVAO) Flight Data recorder Soyuz FDR The basic sources of data for flight system are VATSIM or IVAO statistics and network client. The client utility ( Soyuz FDR ) is designed to transmit to the website more detailed information about the flight. The site uses the following units: feet, pounds, nautical miles, knots . All times are in UTC . Call Sign When performing scheduled and charter flights specified in the airline schedules pilot shall use a call sign corresponding to the Flight Number (for example, AUI101, WRC243, UDN505). Flying online with the pilot’s personal call sign (for example, UKR7188) allowed for group flights or fly-ins as well as when it is not possible to use Flight Number call sign (call sign is in use by another pilot in network). Booking and Flying The booking is performed on the VAU website. A pilot selects an available scheduled flight, specifies some flight parameters and confirms the booking. The flight is registered in EUROBOOK and Flight Plan could be registered in VATSIM. To be able to register Flight Plan in VATSIM it is necessary to allow pop-up windows for site https://vau.soyuz.aero/ in Internet Explorer . The pilot could book the flight in 24 hours prior to departure. But VATSIM keeps Flight Plan two hours only and, because of this, Flight Plan could be registered in 2 hours prior to departure. The airplane and the flight stay booked during 30 minutes after planned departure. But if the flight is not started by this moment, the booking is canceled. IVAO pilots file the Flight Plan in IvAp client. To perform the flight it is necessary to start Flight Simulator and Soyuz FDR, login to VATSIM (via vPilot, FSInn or SqawkBox) or to IVAO (via IvAp) with proper callsign, check the Flight Plan (if it was registered in VATSIM) or create a new one. VATSIM renews its statistic every two minutes (IVAO statistics renews every five minutes), so it could take a couple of minutes to confirm the flight in VAU system. It is recommended to make sure that the flight is accepted by VAU system before engine start, but it is possible by take-off. If during the flight Internet connection is lost (or Soyuz FDR is off) longer of 20-30 minutes, the flight is cancelled. The flight is considered as completed, if the pilot entered VAU system before take-off, was airborne, covered 5 nm or more, landed, speed reduced below 20 knots, engines were off. Only online flights are registered by VAU system. It is prohibited to change time rate during the flight. In this case the flight is ignored and will not be included to statistic. Regular Schedule Regular flights schedule based on real airlines schedule. Recommended commercial loading and number of passengers are generated daily for each flight considering that weight of passenger is equal to 190 lbs with carry-on baggage plus 40 lbs of luggage independent of aircraft type or cabin class. Departure and arrival time, length of route are supplemental information and could be specified during flight planning. On each flight could be assigned one or more types of aircraft by ICAO code. The pilot could choose any aircraft from available. The company could include charters in common schedule, but these charters system treats as regular flights. Routes Recommended routes for regular flights are checked by administration and validated by current AIRAC. During flight planning system suggests a recommended route and flight level, however the pilot could enter own parameters. Flight Plan To provide normal work of the VA system, it is necessary to put aircraft tail number in Remarks field of a Flight Plan in standard format REG /URDME (without hyphen). It is strictly recommended to use flight number as a callsign. In case if callsign is not corresponding to flight number, it should be included to Remarks in special format RTE =PS101 . Dispatch Dispatch check route in accordance with current AIRAC and perform simplified fuel planning for some aircraft types. The total fuel quantity required to fly is the sum of the following quantities: TAXI: quantity required for startup and taxi, including APU fuel within 15 min TRIP: fuel required from departure to destination including takeoff and climb on selected speed, cruise on selected speed, descend from cruising level to altitude 1500 ft, approach and landing ALTERNATE: fuel required to fly from destination to alternate airport. It includes go-around, climb to cruising level, cruise at long range speed, descend and approach procedure (minimal distance to alternate 200 nm) HOLD: fuel for 30-min holding at 1500 feet RESERVE: contingency fuel (5% from a trip fuel) Pilot and Plane Location The system keeps the last landing airport as locations of pilots and planes. The company could allow flights of pilots and planes from current location only, or set more flexible rules. Weather The VA system registers weather conditions during take-off and landing: intensity of perceptions (by...
