I'm totally clueless about Microsoft Flight Simulator, and its community.  I suppose I can understand how flying as virtual pilots on virtual planes in a virtual airline might be as much fun to some people as AH or (name your game) is to others.

How does a flight make money?  
Do you have virtual passengers or payload?
Does the airline exist in a persistent online virtual reality with shared virtual air-space, like the AH arenas?

Maybe most important, do you have hot twenty-something virtual flight attendants in the crews?

I might be interested after all.

yes, we have virtual passengers and virtual cargo which is where we make our money from. we even have a virtual passenger list with actual names from the region your flying in and where they are "from".

as for the last part, its a yes and no answer. the server we run off of is completely free and has over 10000 active members from over 1800va's. there are alwways people flying. however, its not like AH in the way you "share the sky" and always see the people who are also flying. you can though, but you have to do it either through Vatsim, FS multiplayer, or FShost. when flying this way it would be just like AH.
