NOTAM 122321: FsHost Server

NOTAM: 122321

TO: All Ravn Air VA Pilots

ISSUED FROM: Ravn Air VA Administration

SUBJECT: FsHost Server Now Active  

Firstly, we hope that all of our pilot’s and their families are having a happy holiday season and are staying safe in these difficult times. Over the past few months, Ravn Air VA received numerous requests for hosting out own multiplayer server for pilots to use without being bothered by Vatsim/IVAO ATC. Through our searching and contact with other VA’s, we have decided to setup and host our own FsHost server. FsHost allows us to provide the requested service for our pilots and prospective pilots. By logging into your profile and visiting the download sections, you will find the link to the FsHost client needed to access the server. Their forums provide a great resource should you need additional help installing the client. It is designed for FS9/FSX but is also compatible with Prepar3d. We have not performed testing with XPlane to verify its compatibility. We hope this will be of great benefit to all our pilots and that everyone has fun flying together, without the pressure of ATC (lets face it some of us just want to fly without ATC together)!  

In other news, we have switched our TeamSpeak server off due to low usage by pilots and decided to go with the more modern Discord server. We encourage all pilots to visit our site and join our Discord channel. For your first connection to the server, please message the COO in the session to request to be added to the server so you can access the other pilot channels dedicated to our pilots only.  

We wish everyone a Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas. We will have lots of new events coming up in the near future so stay tuned and remember to keep the dirty side down! Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have at coo@ravnairva.com.   Thank you for your time!
