VA rules & requirements

�1: To become a VA affiliated with IVAO™, your VA has to be free of charge for the members, and a non profit organization. Your VA will not profit directly or indirectly from using the IVAO network, neither use IVAO™ name to do publicity of the company.
�2:

Registered VAs are responsible of the logos and names they submit to the IVAO database.

IVAO™ will not be responsible of copyright violations.

�3: Your VA should use its assigned 3 letter code, to be able to use the network services provided, and only IVAO™ member VAs will have the right to mantain a registered ICAO code. You can chose your own ICAO code during the registration process and it will be assigned to you unless the code is already in use. If the VA you are registering is based on a real airline, then you will be assigned the ICAO code of that real airline unless, of course, there's already another VA based on the very same real airlines thence using that code. In this case you will have to chose a different one. In case your VA is NOT based on a real airline, it might happen that the code you chose during the registration proccess becomes the ICAO code of a new born real airline; in this case you will have to change your ICAO code upon request of the FOHQ. Note: the reference for real airlines is ICAO Doc 8585.
�4: The registration form must be filled in and submitted by the actual CEO/Owner of the VA and not by another person, even if belonging to the VA-staff.
�5: VAs are required to log per week at least N� of users X 2 hours = Required hours. It does not mean each user must fly 2 hours, it means the total of hours flown by the company must be calculated with this formula. This is the minimum required to maintain their membership status in our Virtual Airlines System..
�6: VAs are required to update their membership details when they change (CEO/Owner, Staff list, Pilot list, URL of website, e-mail, etc...). No reply to mails due to not existing mail addresses will lead to the VA removal from the database.
�7:

Member VAs will link to IVAO™ using the logo provided to them on registration. The logo MUST be only the logo sent by us.

�8:

IVAO™ reserves the right to accept, deny or remove a VA from the database and/or VA's system without any advise neither explanation if Executive Commitee decide it.

The VA's System is copyrighted by IVAO™. Any company active on it can use it freely of charge. IVAO™ will only support problems with the pages, but will not support problems between the company and its users.

�13:

A VA can change the CEO/Owner at any time but any new appointed CEO/Owner must always:
· be a person at least 18 y/o
· hold minimum a PP or ADC rating
· have been registered on the IVAO network for at least 6 months, with a clean suspension history in the last 3 months
· not be a CEO/Owner of any other VA/SOG (that is any IVAO member can be the CEO/Owner of only 1 VA/SOG at a time)
· be active on the IVAO network.
VAs with CEO/Owner whose account is inactive will be removed from the database if a new active CEO is not appointed in a period of 15 days after receiving the warning from the Flight Operation Department.

�14:

The VA must have and maintain a fully functional website at all time. A VA without a website will be removed from the database. If you are planning a major website maintenance or any other action that will result in the website off-line for several days, please send an e-mail to the Flight Operations Director and/or the Flight Operations Assistan Director informing about the site outage.

�15:

The VA website must have a pilot roster page and a staff list page always up-to-date and, for those airlines using the IVAO™ VA- system, those pages must always be synchronized meaning that the pilots roster on the website must shows the same active pilots than the VA-system pilots list and the staff list page on the website must shows the same staff members than the staff list page in the VA-system. If a VA has a CEO/Owner listed in the VA-system (most likely the one who registered the VA) who differs from the one listed in the VA website staff list, the VA will be removed from the database.

�16:

If the website of the VA is not in English, at least some pages must be in the English language. Mandatory pages in English are: the home page, VA Rules & Regulation page, the pilot roster, the staff list, and the page(s) related to the flight activity of the VA (i.e the statistic page).

�17:

17. If the VA is active also on other networks and/or allows pilots to fly off-line, thence not necessarily registered on the IVAO network, the pilot roster page on the website should clearly emphasize those registered on the IVAO network. The pilot roster could be divided in 2 or more sections (IVAO pilots, other network pilots, pilots flying off-line etc.) or show, close to each pilot name or callsign, the logo of the network the pilot belongs to with his Vid.
