Hi,
We will continue to use slack as it best fits our needs. Everything we do such as PIREP filing and route searching is based in slack. So chances of us switching are 0%. Thanks for your question!

~Application Process Change // Introducing AAVA Flight School~
American Virtual has been hard at work making some new additions to the VA that we know all pilots will love!
American Virtual Flight School
Just a few days ago, American Virtual had announced the official launch of the AAVA flight school. This new addition to our VA allows many new things to happen, such as a professionally refined application process, a career mode, as well as an exclusive chance to learn some new things about flying that will help you become as professional and realistic as can be. With 5 training sessions covering different topics each week, led by our own @mkwiecek and @JGrant639, we can ensure that you are learning from the best of AAVA.
New Application Process
Coming with this new addition to our VA is a new application process. All applicants will now have to go through the AAVA Flight School and complete the training requirements that are listed below before being âhiredâ by American Virtual. This will help us know that we can trust our pilots to represent our strive for professionalism. Something to note is that we are now accepting grade 2 pilots. The reason for this is because we are now training all applicants, so we can help get these grade 2 pilots that are looking to fly for a professional virtual airline in and flying!
Training Requirements
Grade 2âs: Grade 2 applicants must attend 7 training sessions and must accumulate 25 hours in the C208 and/or the TBM-900 before being hired by AAVA.
Grades 3-5: Grade 3, 4 and 5 applicants must attend 3 training sessions and must accumulate 10 hours in the C208 and/or the TBM-900 before being hired by AAVA.

~The End Of An Era - Thanks For Everything~
Today marks the final day of American Virtualâs operations, which will end at 12am Est tonight. The staff have all decided it would be best to close down the airline as its current state wasnât so well. We want someone with aspiring potential to take ownership of the airline, and along with a new administration, restore it to be the best American Virtual it can be.
I thank everyone who was apart of AAVA for all of your dedication to this airline, and I really do mean it. All of you have been such a great part of this airline and I have to say hats off to all of you. I will greatly miss talking with all of you, and I hope to see you all on the IFC and in the skies.
For the last time, Mr AAVA, out.

Even though I wasnât in this VA, itâs saddens me to see itâs close. American has always been my favorite airline, and I would always like to come and visit this topic to see what yâall were up too. But anyway, good luck everyone. And I do hope this VA will come back some day.
It is always sad to see a VA go, especially one of a decent size, RIP AAVA
Yes Thanks for making AAVA the kind of VA it was. BAVA will be continuing AAVA routes so if you want to you can join BAVA

This is really sad. I hope to see AAVA in the community again someday.
