VaerolyQuestions and answers
Didn't find yours? Ask us.
Who is Vaeroly for?
Virtual airlines of any size: the staff who run them, and the pilots who fly for them.
Which simulators work?
Microsoft Flight Simulator, Prepar3D and X-Plane, through the Vaeroly app for Windows, Mac and Linux. A flight the app couldn't track (a crash, a lost connection) can be claimed with screenshots, if the airline allows it.
Is there an EFB?
Yes, if your airline switches it on: the booked flight, the SimBrief plan, weather, the loadsheet, checklists, datalink and online traffic in one place. It opens inside the Vaeroly app, on a phone or tablet, or in the browser, shows the same on each, and stays readable offline.
Which languages?
English, Arabic, German, French, Finnish and Italian on the website and in ACARS (from version 2.8.92, Italian from 2.8.97); the phone app is in English, Arabic and German (French and Finnish from 1.1.5). Each person picks their language at the bottom of any page, and the choice is kept on their account.
Is Vaeroly a flying network like VATSIM or IVAO?
No. It's a crew centre: your airline's schedule, bookings, flight reports, ranks and staff tools. Pilots fly online on VATSIM or IVAO with those networks' own software; Vaeroly helps with callsigns and flight plans and can confirm a flight was flown online.
How much does it cost?
Nothing. Vaeroly is free for pilots and early airlines, with every feature and no limits.
Can we move our airline from another system?
Yes. Airline settings › Move your airline here guides you through it: import routes, fleet and pilots from a CSV file or a JSON export, or start your schedule from real-world flights. Pilots can bring their hours with them, and their logbook from another crew centre or flight tracker.
Can several people run the airline?
Yes. Build staff roles from permissions (PIREP review, pilots, operations, community, settings), limit a role to some hubs, and invite staff by email. The owner keeps ownership.
Who owns the data?
Your airline's data is yours: the owner can export its setup and records at any time. Each pilot can download or delete their own data. See the Privacy Policy. Read it.
Does it work with Discord?
Yes. Connect your server to post flights and news, and pilots who link Discord get their pilot ID as their nickname there.
Is there a demo?
Yes: the demo airline shows the pilot and staff sides, read-only, with sample data. Open it from the Try the demo page; no account needed.
