Celebrating One Year of Flight!
Dear Aviation Enthusiasts,
Today marks a monumental milestone in our journey—AeroLynx Virtual Airline’s 1st Anniversary! It feels like just yesterday that we took off on this incredible adventure, and what a year it has been!
From our humble beginnings, AeroLynx has soared to new heights, connecting passionate virtual aviators from around the globe. Together, we've logged thousands of hours in the sky, exploring breathtaking destinations, and creating a community that thrives on a shared love of aviation.
This year has been filled with unforgettable events, challenging flights, and a commitment to excellence that defines the AeroLynx experience. We've built a family here—one that supports, encourages, and celebrates each other’s achievements.
As we look back on our first year, we are incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished together:
• Our dedicated pilots have accumulated over 6,800 hours of flight time.
• Our database currently includes 85 airlines, and it's continuously expanding.
• Over 101,000 real-world routes ranging from sleek passenger jets to rumbling cargo giants.
• We relished group flights that took us across diverse landscapes, from towering mountains and lush valleys to expansive deserts and the endless ocean.
• Delivered comprehensive training on flying with VATSIM to the flight simulation community.
But this is just the beginning. As we embark on our second year, we are more committed than ever to continuing this journey of growth, innovation, and community. We have exciting plans on the horizon, including new routes, enhanced training opportunities, and more ways for our members to connect and share their passion.
To everyone who has been a part of AeroLynx’s first year, thank you. Your dedication, enthusiasm, and support have made this airline what it is today. Here’s to many more years of flying together, pushing the boundaries of what a virtual airline can achieve.
We will be celebrating next week with some special group flights on September 12th-15th. Please feel free to join us in our celebration. For details, see our Discord site. www.aerolynxva.org

Virtual Caledonian - We know you have a choice
Welcome on The Virtual Airline List Virtual Caledonian
Ryanair Virtual is just one of many virtual airlines that exist in the world of aviation simulation. From Delta Virtual Airlines and SkyTeam Virtual to Lufthansa Virtual and EasyJet Virtual, there is no shortage of options when it comes to joining a virtual airline. Many of the major airlines are represented in the virtual world, such as Southwest Virtual Airlines, United Virtual Airlines, Emirates Virtual, Delta Virtual, British Airways Virtual, KLM Virtual, and American Airlines Virtual.
For those who are new to the world of aviation simulation, virtual airlines are organizations that simulate the operations of a real-world airline using flight simulation software. Members of a virtual airline can fly scheduled flights, take part in events, and interact with other virtual pilots. These organizations often have strict guidelines and procedures in place to ensure that flights are conducted as realistically as possible.
Virtual airlines can be found on a variety of different platforms, including VATSIM Virtual Airlines, FS2020 Virtual Airlines, and IVAO Virtual Airlines. Some virtual airlines are dedicated to specific types of flights, such as FedEx Virtual Airlines for cargo operations or Air Canada Virtual for flights within Canada.
Infinite Flight Virtual Airlines is another popular flight simulation game that has a thriving virtual airline community. Infinite Flight Virtual Airlines are created and operated by players within the game and can range from small regional airlines to global carriers like Air France Virtual and Cargolux Virtual. Additionally, there are Cargo Virtual Airlines like UPS Virtual Airlines and Wizz Air Virtual, which focus on cargo operations.
Virtual airlines are not just limited to commercial airlines. There are also MSFS Virtual Airlines that are specifically tailored to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, like the ones listed on VAMSYS Airlines List. These virtual airlines provide a great way for pilots to hone their skills and explore the world of aviation simulation.
With so many virtual airlines to choose from, it can be difficult to know which one to join. Many virtual airlines have their own ranking systems and awards, so it's important to do your research and find the one that best fits your interests and skill level. Whether you're a seasoned virtual pilot or just starting out, there's a virtual airline out there that's perfect for you. So why not take to the skies and join the ranks of the best virtual airlines today?
