Is there any Fleet Roadmap plans?
Yes. There are internal discussions about retiring some aircrafts as well as acquiring new ones. It all depends on a few important factors as who is going to manage the fleet, and if the current X-Plane, FS2020, or P3D add-ons are operational. We also need pilots to operate the equipment, etc. Most of the conversations are around acquiring 1 x MD-11, 1 x Boeing 787, 1 x Boeing 777 in the future. Recently we incorporated one Airbus A321 XLR and we are looking for A320/A321 Pilots.

Can I operate multiple aircrafts?
In order to operate as much as close to the real operations, pilots are not allowed to operate aircrafts that belongs to different families at the same time. As an example, Boeing 737-700/800 are part of the same family. A Boeing 737 pilot can operate any of the aircrafts that belongs to that family. On the other hand, the same pilot will not be allowed to operate Boeing 757/767 famililes without performing a flight check. Changes between families are allowed only after one year operating the same aircraft family. There are other conditions that might apply as well. The pilots can be certified on multiple families but will be operating only one family at the time.

Can I perform the flights off-line?
Off line flights are not allowed at TransBrasil Virtual. We are ceritified within VATSIM and IVAO. The pilots can perform your flights connected to these networks.

Do I have to be checked to join TransBrasil Virtual Team?
We do not call it check. It is mostly a session with a Staff Member to help you understand how we do operate the flights. Of course, during this session you might be asked some questions or to execute some procedures, but nothing that you probably already know, and if you don't know or is confused, this is actualy a great opportunity to ask for help and clarify anything related to our operations. Use this as an opportunity to learn and share. Don't be afraid of asking questions and share what you already know. Keep in mind that there is no such a thing of "We/I know everything". The spirit inside TransBrasil Virtual is to help each other to learn and grow. After joining we will be very curious to know what you can bring to the table based on your previous experiences, so fell free to share and most important ask any questions you might have.

Can I perform international flights?
Yes, as long as we can see how is your radio communications in English. Remember, here we try to operate as close as we can of the real aviation. If your planning to join TransBrasil to perform international flights, please make sure you indicate it when booking your first session after completing your onboarding.

How often to I have to perform flights? Is there any minimum required flights to maintain my registrations within TransBrasil Virtual?
The minimum required by all pilots is to perform one flight every 20 days. We request all pilots to perform at least four flights per month.
