Anybody know if there’s a good bmi Virtual around?

The attitudes of some airlines to VAs is pathetic. A vitrual airline is hardly going to make vast profits using the airline’s name and logo is it?

Airlines like British Airways, Flybe and SN Brussels are to be commended for their positive attitude towards their virtual counterparts.

bmi dont like the FS scene. They forcibly closed down a number of VAs due to copyright issues.

I am very surprised that there is no bmi VA, I looked for one myself because I like bmi’s routes and wanted to fly them in FS.

Also I looked for bmi baby but couldn’t find that either 🙁

I havent been into the hobby at that time so I couldn’t have known. Do you reckon another bmi Virtual will be set up in the future?

None were high quality though like BA Virtual.

Wrong there mate.
I’m a member of BAV, and i was a memeber of the original bmi VA, whe had our own domain, the site and setup was v professional, we mirrored the same scheds and procediures as bmi , and sadly we were closed down in 2003.

I’ve seen a pretty comprehensive list of VAs on a web site somewhere but can’t recall which one, alas.

🙁

Haven’t seen one recently.

The two that I was aware of have both disappeared recently.
