Hi. Today, I decided to start flying for IYPVA, only, I think I messed up. I browsed the virtual air section on the website, and downloaded a flight leaving from Berlin. I was monitoring the TTD from the website, and originally, I had 33 minutes. I waited until it said 00:10, because I assumed Michelle would start alerting me the time until we had to begin the pre-flight checklist. she did not, so I began all checklists at the top of the hour. I watched a video on the homepage of ItsYourPlane where Robert is doing the pre-flight checklist and begins the boarding process and the FO was doing what mine was not. His flight crew were very clearly welcoming passengers onto the plane too. I got none of that. I’m wondering if I messed something completely up, or what. this flight literally felt like a regular offline private flight. it states on the website that when your flying for IYPVA, the acars is started automatically. this didn’t happen, Michelle asked me if I wanted to start it… frustrating stuff. any help would be appreciated.
