I have completed 2 flights and under upgrade status it says I completed 0 of 10 flights, why is this? I see that it is not showing my true flight status.

It would say 2 of 10 flights completed if you flew those flights with a 763. Any other aircraft would remain 0 of 10.

Michael, flights not made in ACARS are ineligible for captain promotion.

Salud!

Michael, are you flying direct on all your flights?

Micahel, I think there's some confusion - you don't have any ACARS flights logged, and your logbook doesn't show any. Here's two flight reports:

http://www.deltava.org/pirep.do?id=0x536ce
http://www.deltava.org/pirep.do?id=0x50467

The first is an ACARS flight, the second is not. Since you're in the 767 program, all of your flights will need to be logged via ACARS in order to qualify for promotion to Captain. Let us know if you have any issues or questions - we're happy to help. ACARS is a great flight recording and tracking tool, that I believe you will find helpful for all of your flights.

Cheers!

So why aren't they logging?maybe if I restart flight sim and try it again, I gotta trouble shoot.

Did you submit via ACARS? If so, did you accidentally hit delete ACARS data on your PIREP?

Something bad. Which ACARS version are you running? v1 or v2?

Cheers!

2.1, I shut down my flight as it wasen't logging on ACARS anyway and restarted everything so now ACARS seems to see flight sim now. I will try a short flight to KSLC later tonight and see how it works.
