And remember, I will add any PD that has an aviation unit, so if the city you want to operate out of isn't listed here, it can be.

Hello Brendan. Let me share my really short thought about this. There's already a Heli Flying Club on VATSIM, I think that's Metro Helicopters. And there's even Hovercontrol.com which has tons of members and a lot of helis to choose from. Given that you wanted to start a VA like this, which is not 'new' ... have you asked yourself already, "What is so different about my VA? - What is new about this VA, or is it just the callsign?Yes, I'm aware it takes a lot of work and time to start a VA. Hovercontrol uses it's own servers, and is different from vatsim. Metro Helis appears to be a FS only VA, and only operates out of NY and LA. They only do firefighting, EMS, Air Taxi, and Sightseeing.
We've seen a lot of VAs that grew overnight like a mushroom then suddenly disappear a week after because the CEO is no longer interest because nobody would join him. Or the VA is too common for everything. Or he didn't find the staff to work on it.
