Flatline Virtual is a virtual airline that operates Flatline Aeromedical Services, a fictional medevac company. The company operates both scene responses using helicopter point to point operations as well as Interfacility Transfers, bring patients from hospital to hospital by flying airport to airport. The virtual airline operates solely on the VATSIM network at this time. Due to the complexity of the fights and uniqueness of the logging, an ACARS cannot be used to log pilot flights.

 

At Flatline Virtual, your access to aircraft is based on your training and certification done with the staff. There is no hourly requirements in a 'rank' to be able to fly aircraft. We only ask that you have a good understanding and experience with the aircraft you wish to fly and know the basic emergency procedures of the aircraft. Flatline Virtual does not fly SAR flights, nor are our pilots permitted to request MEDEVAC priority. This airline is not a part of the vSOA virtual airlines and requesting priority is against the COC on VATSIM.

 

If you're looking for something different and want to help get this airline off the ground, visit our website, check out some of the information and if you like what you see, fill out an application. We'd be glad to have you in our crew.

I absolutely love the irony in your company name! I'm waiting for the marketing/sales pitch next that speaks to your company being aligned with your customers' future!

"We work to ensure your future... Flatline!"

"Need help getting treatment at the hospital fast? We'll get there fast so you can... Flatline!"

 

 

I wish your VA a long and prosperous life.... In spite of your name

Thanks! It's definitely the sort of humor that floats around EMS on a regular basis.

 

"We are flatline, so you dont have to."

 

The downside is atc sometimes thinks I'm saying flightline which is a regional airline in Spain.

Love it as well -- happy to see an organization cropping up to fill this void, long overdue. I'm out of commission at the moment due to a remodeling project, but you should definitely expect to hear from me in a few weeks.

Cheers,
-R.

Major Updates

 

Flatline Virtual has gone through some major changes in the past few weeks since launch to make it more efficient and interesting for the pilots with more improvements to come. Here's the biggest changes since initial launch:

 

-15 aircraft, mostly default in both simulators, have been added to the fleet for improved pilot flexibility

-Fleet maintenance and economy has been removed to allow for this huge fleet increase

-Training and certification has been removed. New pilots can expect to fly within 48 hours of applying

-Ranking has been implemented to give pilots a personal goal to work toward

-Maximum inactivity increased to 30 days

-Various internal procedure changes

 

In the future, pilots can expect the following:

 

-Changing the handbook to SOPs once everything is settled with current procedures

-Finishing liveries for all current fleet aircraft

-Changes and improvements to the Call Generator program

-More personal and group goals for pilots

 

As the pilot roster grows:

-Custom PIREP system to automatically log these complex flights

-Possibly joining vSOA once minimums have been achieved for SAR ops using both fixed wing and rotary wing

-Group events simulating fictional disasters and m[Mod - Happy Thoughts] casualty incidents

-Implementation of in-game visuals produced by the Call Generator such as EMS crews on scene
