05/09/2021	New addition to the Senior Staff Team	Paul Hale
Pilots, It gives me great pleasure to announce a new addition to the AFVA Senior Staff team. Brian and I are becoming increasingly busy with real world work commitments and haven't been able to devote as much time to running the airline as we used to or would like to. As such, we made a decision to bring in a 3rd Senior Staff member who will generate fresh ideas and enthusiasm, can devote the time needed and be jointly responsible for the general day-to-day running of the airline. It gives me great pleasure to announce the promotion of Daniel Duhon from Boeing 777 Chief Pilot to his new position of Executive Vice President of HR. Daniel joined AFVA in 2013 as a 13 year old first officer after transferring to us from Delta Virtual Airlines. He has progressed through the ranks and held positions including Dispatcher, Boeing 777 Assistant Chief Pilot and Boeing 777 Chief Pilot before gaining this promotion to Senior Staff. Please join us in congratulating Daniel on this very well deserved promotion. Brian Hankey, CEO & Paul Hale EVP, Operations

02/04/2021	Additional Aircraft available to fly when using MSFS2020	Paul Hale
Hi pilots, With many of our pilots flying using Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and the lack of available current aircraft available for that simulator, we have decided to break protocol and allow 2 new air-frames to be flown when logging flights with AFVA. MSFS2020 pilots will now be able to use the Cessna Longitude and TBM930 to file flight reports here, this has been introduced on a temporary basis and will be reviewed regularly as more aircraft options for this simulator are released. Please check your pilot profiles and see if you have the ratings, some pilots would have had them assigned automatically from being in the ERJ program at some point during their AFVA careers. If you do not have the ratings and want them added, please submit a help desk ticket and the ratings will be assigned to you. Please DO NOT fly either of these air-frames until you see the ratings in your pilot profiles or have been assigned them manually following a help desk request or the flight will risk being rejected. Please note: These ratings will only be accepted on MSFS2020 PIREPs and have been brought in as a special measure for pilots using this simulator due to a lack of available aircraft, Anybody using P3D, X-Plane or FSX will already have a huge array of air-frame options available for them to fly so shouldn't need to use these 2 new aircraft and run the risk of a flight rejection if they do. Enjoy the new ratings, Brian, Fredrik and Paul AFVA Senior Staff
