Though I absolutely love anything to do with aviation, I’ve never really been into flight simulators for long periods because, well, I get bored buzzing around the virtual skies with no purpose. Now I’ve discovered two things which make it all so immersive and fun I can’t get away from my computer! OnAir Company, and VATSIM, used together!

Vatsim + A320NX mod + FS2020 is quite the addiction for me. Vatsim really adds another layer and is soo much fun plus it helps a ton with learning IFR (I’m a PPL in real life).
Hi SteviSim
Great to hear you’re having fun like that with the sim. Yes, VATSIM makes simming more immersive and fun. As to your other concern, I can only suggest that you do what many other simmers do. Tell your wife that you are learning to be a real pilot so that you can earn big bucks later.

What’s OnAir Company !?
Yeah, I love onair, I have 7 beechcraft king air 350i, 12 employees, 6 pilots, 5 attendants (for airliners when I rent one) and a mechanic so far. I just finished the US tour, unfortunately it was all at night so I couldn’t appreciate the scenery as much but it was still cool, ran into some pretty cool weather.
I think I’m going to scale down and get some propeller planes though so I can do some small short range flights as well, I get too focused on trying to scale up but I have a lot of fun flying the smaller planes. My main airport is Copenhagen but I want to do some trips around Japan soon.
i very much enjoy my virtual airline Yogi Air

Should I have more than one mechanic? Seems to be working now, I’ve never had to service more than one plane at a time. Does having more mechanics speed up the process?
one who can serve all types of aircraft
