Been flying sims for years and always felt like the career side was missing something real. VAs are great for community but the economics are usually seriously lacking or non-existent.

Aviator Ledger is my answer. It is a brower-based career simulator/efb. You pick one of 209 real airlines, a home base city, and start as a New Hire FO.

From there:

• Pay calculated from real airline contract scales
• FAA Part 117 fatigue with actual duty rig math, not just a rest timer
• Tax by jurisdiction — a Dubai-based captain takes home dramatically more than the same captain based in London
• 401(k), flight school debt, cost of living across 202 cities
• Charter ops, aircraft ownership, and an IPO path
• Virtual airlines — create your own, hire real pilots, revenue splits automatically on flight completion
• AI ACARS with 7 Claude-powered radio messages per flight referenced to your actual route, aircraft, and weather

Works alongside any sim or none at all. Manual logging takes about 30 seconds. MSFS, X-Plane, Aerofly FS4, and Infinite Flight all have auto-import.

Currently in beta and totally free — no credit card, no download, just sign in with Google or your Email.

Looking for beta testers who'll actually poke at it and tell me what's broken or missing. aviatorledger.com

Hey r/InfiniteFlight 👋

I've been building a browser-based airline career simulator called Aviator Ledger and I'd love feedback from people who actually fly serious sim hours.

It's not a replacement for IF — it's the career layer on top. You log your flights manually (takes about 10 seconds), and the app handles everything around it: pay scales, FAA Part 117 fatigue rules, duty rigs, taxes (109 real tax systems — Dubai 0%, London 45%), 401(k), seniority, rank progression, and 209 real airlines with 7,314 routes.

A few things I built specifically because I was tired of other career tools getting them wrong:

• Real pay scales. Pulled from actual airline contracts, not made up
• Iron Man mode. Real UTC clock, no time skipping, decisions are permanent
• Charter empire path. Buy aircraft, hire crew, take your company public with a real IPO
• Cost of living across 202 cities — your Dubai-based captain take-home is very different from your London-based one

Free during beta. No download, no install — works in browser, signs in with Google or Discord. Works with IF, MSFS, X-Plane, Aerofly, GeoFS or no sim at all if you just want the management side.

Site: aviatorledger.com

If you fly IF and try it, I genuinely want to know what feels off. The point of beta is to fix the stuff that doesn't match how real sim pilots think.

Cheers ✈️

The built-in career mode in 2024 was supposed to be the thing that kept people playing long-term. Most people agree it didn't quite get there. I started building Aviator Ledger about 6 months ago for exactly that reason.

It runs in your browser, no install needed. Auto-imports your MSFS 2024 logbook — also supports SimToolkitPro and LittleNavMap CSV exports, and there's a drag and drop option if the auto-scan misses your install path.

Where it's at right now:

209 real airlines — every major carrier you'd have a livery for in 2024. Full cargo coverage (FedEx, DHL, Emirates SkyCargo).

Real pay scales with FAA Part 117 fatigue rules — 9h/24h and 30h rolling 7-day limits, enforced the same way they are for actual Part 121 pilots. The built-in career mode doesn't touch this.

109 tax systems — your home base city changes your actual take-home. Dubai pilot keeps significantly more than a London pilot on the same gross pay.

Private aviation — buy aircraft, hire crew, run charter flights, build a reputation system, and eventually take your company public with a full IPO system. Stock price updates weekly.

Director of Operations — once your charter fleet hits 15 aircraft you hire a DOps who auto-manages everything weekly. Three candidates with partially hidden stats, you pick one.

Two modes — Sandbox (skip time freely) and Iron Man (real UTC clock, no skipping, permanent decisions).

PWA - if you prefer app style playing instead of browser.
