V. Progress of the career of the pilot

V.1. Flights

The pilot can perform two types of flights:

Flights "real" based on the actual timetable of Air Tahiti, seek to replicate these flights flights from the actual company keeping as close conditions (time, equipment, line done ...)
The "charter" flights are at the discretion of the pilot. They can be made with the device, the time and the conditions chosen by the pilot and may be unrelated to a real flight of Air Tahiti.

At the end of each flight, the pilot must file a flight report to be sent to the company to provide a log-book for each pilot.

V.2. The Crew center

The Crew Center available to pilots by the company is a tool to manage pilot profile, send flight reports, download documents, send messages to other members.
A logbook is available in this area and can find a history of the flights and the total time spent on these flights, the distance traveled and the number of passengers conveyed. It also brings up the total salary of the pilot that is cumulative as of flights.

V.3. Career Management

The VTA pilot follows a career development based on its number of flight hours :

Student Pilot (EP): From registration to 25 flight hours
Private Pilot (PPL): From 25 hours of flight 150 flight hours
Professional Pilot (CPL): From 150 flight hours and 500 flight hours
First Officer (FO): From 500 hours of flight 1000 flight hours
Captain (CBD): From 1 000 hours
Instructor (FI): This special rank is automatically assigned to any member of staff. It can however be attributed to any member being Captain (thus having more than 1000 flight hours) and having demonstrated exceptional involvement with Air Tahiti VIRTUAL. The award of this grade must be passed unanimously by the Staff.

We ask our pilots to make live the VA to achieve at least one flight every 30 days. After this time your status will go inactive. To validate your registration with VTA, you have to send your first PIREP (flight report) within 15 days.

V.4. Inactivity

After 90 days (3 months) without PIREP, your VTA account will become Inactive.
After 180 days (6 months) without PIREP, your VTA account will be deleted.

This prevents ghost accounts, and a pilot list abnormally inflated compared to the overall activity of the company.
A removed pilot can re-register again with VTA (if this pilot has not been banned from VTA), but he/she will have to start the whole of his career and will not be entitled to a return to his previous position (rank, hours, etc). However, if you are aware of a period during which you can not make the minimum required flight, we invite you to contact the staff so that your status is set to "On Leave". After this period of leave, you can resume your normal flights without having lost your benefits (rank, salary, awards, etc).

VI. Forum

Any pilot joining the company is invited to enroll in the internal forum. The forum for the exchange of general information (newcomers, events, sharing tips, links, advice). It is of course rigor to respect the rules of politeness, propriety and courtesy put in any public place. We draw your attention to the fact that the use of offensive, racist, libelous in print, or any other evidence to reach the privacy of others can be followed by immediate radiation and no possible reinstatement for the pilot who issued this statement. Important : this is a translation of the French version. In case of difference of interpretation, only the French version is official.
