Paul Biderman has resigned his position of Vice President, Human Resources. Mike Tucker, who was our Rectruiter and assisted Paul on HR duties, will take Paul's place.
Paul dedicated a lot of his time to keeping the HR department running smooth and we thank him for his work! Paul is the manager of a VATSIM Center facility which requires more focus. Paul will be helping Mike with a smooth transition and from there will become a regular member here.
Mike will now be your point of contact for HR matters and is reachable via email, hr@globecargova.org, on the forum, or on Discord.

Here it is folks, our first poll on the new website!
Management has been discussing the possibility of offering GCVA branded products via Spring (formerly Teespring.) We'd like to find out if there is any interest before we develop the product options.
There are a couple of goals with the use of products from Spring.
First, we would like to offer official "swag" to our members. Not everyone who applies gets to become a member of GCVA and some may like to show what they have accomplished. There will be little to no markup on these products and sold at cost.
Additionally, there are some products we'd like to offer free of charge with the exception of shipping costs for major achievements in a members' career here at GCVA. One such achievement would be the promotion to Captain. We plan on offering a particular product to our new Captain upgrades (Upgrade Exam passed and rank changed to CA) free of charge for the product itself - you earned it and we are happy to send you something to recognize your achievement! There are other possibilites for products that could be offered free of charge as well but that will be decided at a later date.
So please, let us know what you think about purchasing or receiving products from Spring by answering the poll on this post. Thank you for your participation!
Here is a quick proof-of-concept coffee mug for demonstration purposes. There are many other types of products available.
A new page has been added for X-Plane repaints. Find it by going to Aircraft->Repaints for X-Plane. The page is separate from P3D/FSX repaints to avoid any confusion as to which sim you're downloading repaints for.
Brian Smith will be managing XPL repaints and he has uploaded a few already.
