Tyler Pittaway 971912 0 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Hi, Doing some basic Google research, I was sad to hear that there is no current Easyjet Virtual. This I find very upsetting, I intend with a team of fellow Vatsim volunteers, to restart Easyjet Virtual. I will take place as CEO and president of the VA. I will need a 'Techie' to help me setup, and get some VA software up and running. I would appreciate any [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance anyone is willing to give. I will proceed with getting us recognized by the real Easyjet and invest a lot of time into seeing it successful. And naturally we will need pilots, to fly for us of course. I appreciate any [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance, advice and comments with regard to the project. Thank-you for reading this far. If you would like to get in touch and get this VA running, and be one of the founding members, please email me at: [email protected] Link to post Share on other sites
Ernesto Alvarez 818262 0 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 there used to be a pretty large easyjet virtual. looks like they closed. the others i see on google dont seem active. i'd try to find out why the big one closed, some airlines tend to not like people using theyre trademarks and will order them closed. i believe easyjet is one of those, so i recommend looking into that just incase Link to post Share on other sites

Tyler Pittaway 971912 0 Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 Hi, I have a draft of the website. I have taken your comments into account and I value them deeply. I am going to pursue with this, and hopefully we can get permission. Take a look. http://easyva.t83.net/ Link to post Share on other sites
Luke Kolin 10 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I am going to pursue with this, and hopefully we can get permission. You are best doing something like what Citrus VA and the other AirTran clones did; make a VA similar to the real-world airline but not using any of the airline's registered marks. Cheers! Luke ...

Callum McLoughlin 5 Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 To secure any agreement with an airline is a long, slow, and painstaking business (as I know only too well). Good luck, but I don't think the Easy Group will agree. Link to post Share on other sites
Sean Reedman 5 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I was part of the original Easy Virtual in the late 90's who got closed down and was only a registerd pilot - The letter from their legal team ensured I ceased to fly with them again!! I'd leave it and try something different unless you have a great lawyer. Sean Reedman Link to post Share on other sites
adam parnell 0 Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 I can only echo what has been said before. I know members of their staff who contacted them about EasyVA and were told NO! I own a couple of domains ie airlinevirtual.com and every year I renew it I get very threatening letters of legal action for having a blank website!

Billy Murphy 986219 0 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 IIRC, easyJet took an Indian Curry resturant to court because they were called "easy curry". I strongly suggest you avoid easyjet virtual! Link to post Share on other sites
