About the Flying Tigers Group

The Flying Tigers Group is the world's most active and dynamic conglomerate of virtual airlines. We are a group of semi-independent virtual airlines that share a common database, operating procedures and resources.  This provides our virtual airlines with a proven and robust system for them to thrive and offers all of our members huge benefits.

In other virtual airlines when you become a pilot your only job is to complete a flight for the same airline. Day after day, month after month, year after year. For this reason many pilots choose to join several VAs or quit over time. Who would want to fly the same planes and routes all the time? Boring... but not with us!

This is where the Flying Tigers Group comes in. You can fly for all of our virtual airlines representing some of the best and most exotic airlines around the world. As a pilot you will be able to fly short island hops to exotic locations or even trans-Atlantic flights on the Concorde.  This isn't a free for all operation like some other virtual airline groups on the net.  We carefully choose the airlines that are represented in our group.

Because all of our virtual airlines share our advanced automation features, a pilot only needs to sign up once. Then with a single pilot ID, a pilot can log in to all of our virtual airlines. What's really cool is that you can file a PIREP at any of our virtual airlines and it will always count towards your total flight hours and rank!

This concept has created one of the most active and dynamic groups of Flight Simulator fanatics we've ever seen.

Some of our services:

• Really cool automated pilot services using ASP technology and a robust SQL database. We use a high end dedicated Windows 2003 server with an SQL 2000 database. We don't use the free/cheap stuff like everyone else.

• Automated sign up process.  Pass the automated entrance exam, grab a pilot ID and you're good to go.  The only catch is that new members have to sign up with a valid email address.  Potential members will not be able to sign up with phony emails because our system weeds them out automatically.

• Advanced management portal where our management team can manage members, review PIREPs, do content management and everything else needed to run a virtual airline. Since it's all online, our management team can do this anywhere they have internet access.

• Our very own free FTG-ACARS program to automatically captures your flight information. Includes flight crew announcements and even shows your flight path in Google Earth, see here

• We get rid of inactive pilots. You will never see 100 active pilots out of 2000 members on our roster. Unlike other groups who keep inactive members on their roster, we closely monitor our membership activity.

• Flight schedules are integrated with real world schedules from the amadeus.net & SkyGuide databases.  Our flight schedules will always be up to date thanks to real time / real world data.

• Advanced pilot logbook, with all kinds of statistics and really cool dynamic maps that show your latest flights.  Our pilots can edit/delete their own flight reports.

• Our rank system is based partly on seniority, just like the real airlines.

• A large community of active flight simulation fanatics from all over the world!

• We have one of the most active message boards compared to any other virtual airline, providing a large thriving flightsim community.

• Full access to all of our virtual airlines. Flights from all FTG virtual airlines are recorded in your pilot logbook.

• oneworld Alliance, Star Alliance & skyTeam codeshare programs offering a huge number of real world airline routes.

• Classic & Cargo Divisions featured at many of our virtual airlines.

• Our websites come in multiple language to cater to the local flightsim communities. (e.g. Virtual Air France is in English and French)

• A first class virtual airline experience simulating some of the best and most exotic airlines in the world.

Members have full access to each VA and choose to sign up with their favorite airline.
