WWBPA

Welcome to our "Vintage Airways" type of virtual ailine, also known as, the "World Wide Bush Pilots Association"!  We are glad you are here!

Our little group of pilots are flying in all sorts of world locations and some of which may have had some very important historical significance. Although this VA is primarily designed for MSFS, most the flight routes, with a little manipulation, can be flown in FSX or P3D.

Here we use a custom ACARS tracking along with an award system and account for all of your hours.  This is a virtural airline with a very low key approach.  We do have one requirement and that is the landing rate must be -500 fpm or lower. We are small but growing network of pilots who reflect on significant historical events in the world of aviation and lend ourselves to more bush type operations and historical events in aviation.  This is the "finer art" of flying of past day where pilots had no choice but to have "hands on" their aircraft. They had limited, or no advanced aircraft systems in which to rely. It was the knowledge and experience of pilots that manually flew their aircrafts. There are no jets here! You will only find propellor aircraft, some of which, are historical and/or vintage aircraft. (Our first set of excursions is based in the WWII China-Burma-India Theater using aircraft from the 1930's and 1940's. We hope you will join us in this VA setting as well as in some group flights that we plan run using the material found on this site.
