  • has a lot of flight information which forces pilots to fly more desirably ;-)</li>
  • genereates ""nice"" human readable PIREPs</li>
  • produces informative maps (flight track, taxi tracks)</li>
  • seems to run stable</li>
  • has good support with quick respones by the developer</li>
Not so good:
  • has to be fine tuned carefully to fit our VA needs (see for example post ""Flight Critque"")</li>
  • needs to be configured so that each pilot is measured be the same (global) rules</li>
  • has no flight plan transfer mode to obtain one's flightplan from VA (announced for Version 3.x)</li>
  • do not prevent sending a flight more than once (just has a ""sure?""-dialogbox)</li>
  • needs a lot of work to integrate/migrate it into our current running system</li>

Where as FSAcars has to be manually sent by me."
