Of course you will have FULL ADMIN RIGHTS to the blog so you can change anything you like (of course at your own risk, no support given on any changes you make yourself). You can change the header picture, add pictures, change and add texts, both in posts and in pages, add WP modules even. Your 500 Mb is the limit!
Oh, and if you need more, NO PROBLEM ! Check out our comprehensive FS Webhosting Product page for all additional services.
Basic VA Website VASF *) Prepared
You get the SAME features as with your Basic VA Website……
PLUS a fully prepared VASF set of pages to follow the progress and activity of your (fellow) pilots and all financials of the VA that runs the VAFinancials system. The only thing you need to do is to take a subscription at VCAS and replace the demo VASF ID with your own!
Don’t know what VASF is? Check out our VASF/VCAS page first, where we explain what it is, whwre to get it and how to use it.

- 500 Mb of space to store your Wordpress database and any content you may add
- FREE installation of the base site
- FREE associated SUB-domain
- All VASF pages set up already
I am running a small ‘private’ Virtual Airline for demo purposes. It uses the VASF windows, so you can see what it looks like in reality. Check out MY LITTLE BUSH OPERATION HERE.
This offering assumes you will want to register your own VA at the VCAS website, and then just integrate it in your Basic VA Website.
Basic VA Website with VCAS *) included
Now you would LOVE to run your own Virtual Airline, or cargo operation, or bush outfit. But you just don’t know how to start, and you don’t want to register one all by yourself at VCAS.
Good news…. we can do that for you too ! You pay ONE yearly fee, tell us your preferred company name, and we’ll take care of setting up your airline at VCAS AND integrate it is a ready-made template for your own website. We do charge a ONE-TIME setup fee of $20, because it is quite a bit of work to get it all done.
You can save that by choosing to do it all yourself of course!
You will still need to learn something about Wordpress, but that’s not too hard.
And hey, we can even help you with that if you want!
What does only $ 100 (+ $20 setup) a year get you:
- A fully installed Wordpress frame site for you to complete to your own taste and skills
- 500 Mb of space to store your Wordpress database and any content you may add

- All VASF pages set up already
All YOU have to do is get you some pilots, set up routes, choose aircraft and GO FLYING !
Additional options for your Basic VA Website
Simple Header Design
We can add a simple header for you, using a photo or screenshot you provide us. Or you can just leave the picture already there, with your own VA name showing over it. Not as much ‘fun’ of course.
When you DO choose this option and send us a picture, please take the following into account:
- Header format is …x… So your picture will need this ratio, or we’ll have to cut parts of it
- Make certain that you OWN the COPYRIGHT of the picture ! We are NOT responsible for that, you are.
Simple Header Design – our picture
We can use a photograph or picture from our own vast array if you want to. That’s a bit more expensive. Not because it is more work making the header, but because we had work in making the photos and pictures.
You can indicate what sort of photo you desire. We may tell you we do not have one that is fitting. Please CONTACT US FIRST before ordering!!!
Simple VA Logo Design
We can design a simple logo for your VA… just in case you don’t have the creativity, the skills or the time to do it yourself. Nothing fancy, just some eye catching logo to put on your website so people will recognize you !
We CAN of course make more ‘fancy’ logos, but that sort of work means we need to discuss things first and come to an agreement on pricing.
Professional designs don’t come cheap. Please scroll also to the bottom for Garry J. Smith custom made designs.
Your own forum added
Yes, that’s right, you can have – and run – your very own forum where you can meet with your pilots, provide instructions and information and basically ‘run’ your airline.
We use the well-known phpBB forum software for this and will install it for you.
The yearly fee is for the space used and our work on setting it up and keeping an eye on the servers.
Only $ 15 YEARLY.
Get company e-mails added
If you wish you can have real VA e-mail addresses, so you don’t need to use your private address for your hobby, or ‘work’ !
We’ll set you up with 5 addresses on your ’space’. These can be used with any of the major e-mail programs such as Outlook Express and others, by adding the accounts to the application.
You can freely choose the FIRST PART of the address (i.e. before the @). The part after the @ is your VA internet domain name.
Only $ 10 YEARLY. Additional addresses possible.
Get statistics added
For a small ONE TIME FEE we set up your site’s statistics tracking. We can use various programs for it, even get you a free Statcounter account installed into your Wordpress site.
Like with everything else, you can do it easily yourself when you have some basic computer and Wordpress skills. But just in case you haven’t, or don’t have the time, we’ll be happy to do it for you.
That is, if WE have the time ! We might be flying our own VA !
Wordpress modules added and installed
We’ll add and activate up to 10 Wordpress modules for you, if so desired.
The Basic VA Website already has quite a few installed for managing it and for some nice additional functionality. But there are many add-on modules freely available these days.
We’ll post a list of possible modules on the site so you can pick and choose.
And yes, installation is just $4 each as a one-time cost.
This option is not yet implemented.
Full web space hosting
You rather do everything (and much more!) yourself and have the skills.. or want to learn?
No problem. We offer FULL SCALE web hosting with your OWN DOMAIN NAME and all FREEDOM to do whaetver you want.
Set up a VA Website, or set up a ‘fan site’, or perhaps an information site on real aviation, a site with your own flights.
You name it.
Add forums, databases, picture galleries, your own blog. It is all possible.
Here’s what you get for a mere $ 150 a year
- FREE domain name
- 750 GB web space
- 7500 GB monthly traffic
- 99.9% server uptime
- Our own dedicated customer care from FS people
- FREE SiteBuilder (save $99!)
- Unlimited email accounts
- CPanel and Fantastico
- A great number of FREE applications to install
If you want us to set up the VA Website on that domain, fine, no problem. Anything else? You call us and we’ll make you a quote. The (virtual) sky is the limit!
Garry J. Smith Designs
We have something special for you.
The real, authentic Garry J. Smith designs for your VA. Whether that’s logos or entire aircraft liveries, Garry can make some pretty amazing stuff for you!

Mind you, this is not exactly cheap. Quality has a price.
If you are interested in a Garry J. Smith designed logo or (set of) aricraft liveries for your VA, then please get in touch first to discuss requirements and whishes.
*) What is VAFS and VCAS
Welcome to the new site
In case you haven’t been here before….. and you clicked on your regular www.FSAddon.com link…. YES, we forwarded you to the new site; www.FSAddon.eu. The old address will continue to be valid, but THIS here is our new layout!
Maybe you will need to refresh your cache, to get rid of the ‘old’ pages…. or just refresh your browser window.
Not everything has been ported, and not everything will. It’s a fresh start and the reason for the change is that we can more easily update this format as opposed to the old ‘classic’ site.
We’re not done with the changes yet… this is a ‘project ‘.
As with every change in life not everything is good, welcomed or easy….. but we are certain that both you AND us will get used to it, and that it will be BETTER in the end !
Kindest regards,
Francois
Bush plane coming !
I’ve been busy with a ton of things lately, but I thought to take some time out and make a few pictures today. Here’s a sneak peek of what’s coming this month….. a BUSH PLANE!
No, not the Lizzie, but just as much fun for bush pilots….. Simon Smeiman of South Africa has built a wonderful little Piper Cub – a Super Cub! – and we’re aiming to get it on the market this month !
More good news….. it flies in FSX… but also in FS2004 !
Best news….. it will NOT be very expensive……
