Run a virtual airline
Stand up a phpvms instance, configure your fleet and routes, onboard pilots, and process flight reports. Everything you need to operate a VA from day one.
Fly with vmsACARS
Track flights automatically. Install the desktop client, connect to your VA, and let ACARS file PIREPs while you fly in MSFS, X-Plane, or P3D.
Extend phpvms
Build addons, themes, ACARS plugins, and integrations. phpvms is fully extensible through Laravel-style routes, events, and a REST API.
