Area 1 | Area 2 | Area 3 | Area 4 | Area 5 |
Flight Activity | World Map | Recently-Completed Flights | Top Pilots | Historical Performance |
Area 1 – Flight Activity

Area 2 – World Map
Area 2 displays a world map showing all flights currently being flown by company Pilots.
The border/outline color of an aircraft's icon indicates its current ATC Network status – as illustrated below.
Offline | IVAO | PilotEdge | POSCON | VATSIM |
Click Live Flights and the screen below will appear. Click it again and the screen will disappear.
Once Live Flights is expanded, the status of each flight can be seen in detail.
Clicking on a Pilot’s name in that area will take you to their Pilot Profile.
For some flights, you may notice a colored bar on the far left of its line entry. Their meanings are as follows:
There are three (3) buttons in the lower left corner of the map. Clicking on them will change the information actively displayed.
Hover your cursor over a variety of entries on your screen to see even more detail about each flight.
And finally, here are two (2) additional icons you'll encounter on the Map:
This Star indicates the location of the Company's Headquarters – KJAX | Jacksonville International Airport. | This Hanger indicates the location of your Home. |
Now, let's examine a line entry to illustrate some of this...
In our example, the Pilot, Flight Student Bradley Fox, is operating Charter flight number 2714. They're flying a Cessna Citation Longitude from KTUS to KAXX. They're currently at 2,559 feet (the field elevation) and taxiing to the runway. Their current speed is 17 kts. The distance remaining to KAXX is 381 nm; the time remaining until their arrival is N/A (0:00).
NOTE: Once the aircraft has taken off, these data points will be updated automatically throughout the flight at regular intervals.
Hovering your cursor over the aircraft's ICAO Code will reveal its type. | Hovering your cursor over the Departure Airport's ICAO Code will reveal its identity. |
Hovering your cursor over the Arrival Airport's ICAO Code will reveal its identity. |
Returning to the Map, locate the aircraft icon and click on it. Zoom in to see this Pilot's planned flight route. Flight data is updated in real time, so you'll note some of the entries have changed from what was seen in the line entry.
Area 3 – Recently Completed Flights
Area 3 displays a list of the fifty (50) most recently-completed flights and their final status – Completed (Green), Diverted (Yellow) or Rejected (Red).
