Hi,
Your flights will only become available to book when they satisfy all the criteria:
1. You must be type rated on the aircraft that the flight is scheduled to be operated by
2. You must be at the same airport where the flight is operated from
3. There must be an aircraft of type available at the airport
Your VA doesn't currently have any aircraft at your current location which is why there are no flights available for you to book. Buy a ticket to an airport where there is one - check your fleet page for current locations of your aircraft.

SPRAY, please don't take offence. are you connected to an airline? or have you started your own? if the latter you have done the same as i did when i started. if it's your own airline then open the section overview and you will have your name listed. below is a section on type ratings. open this and you are able to use the drop down list and place a tick in the box and submit. then you have your type rating.
Also you would have to submit a flightplan, same type of thing, just follow the listing and get yourself started.
If you have joined a VA then ask that VA for help in the matter and they should respond with helpfull advice. it takes a while to get going but well worth the effort. hope this is of help to you.

Frustrated
Looking down the list of pilots, I see that the majority have never actually made a flight!
This I can now understand, I have been sitting at an airport, now in my second day, I had leased a plane, created a flight and VA......and type rating....I go to "book flight"..........my flight shows up, and plane, with a tick by the side, and thats as far as I get!
The client says I have no flight booked, so how do I get a confirmation, or what do I have to click to grab my flight, and yes, i'm at the right airport, so is the plane
"Frunt" the Frustrated!

"click the tick" in a normal world, that would mean you had de-selected the item!
I shall have to remember to work backwards on this site .........main thing is it worked, however illogical!
One more thing, I had the option from the client to refuel, I clicked it, all I got were details of my flight, nothing about fuel, so i'm now in the air, awaiting impending doom! (forgot to be illogical)
Thankyou

AAArrgghhh, it gets worse, I put down at an airprt EGNE, on account of lack of fuel, so Then I create a flight to get back up again, only to be told, EGNE is NOT in the database!!
I take it my leased DC3 will rot away in this graveyard........hope the owners dont bill me!........jeez, what if i'd leased something expensive
So it seems you cant put down just anywhere, for repairs or fuel, how many airports are missing I wonder
