1. The story behind American Flight Airways
John Valencia and Enrique Garcia-Sayan established American Flight Airways Virtual Airlines
(AFA) in November 1996. Originally AFA only had 2 hubs which were located at Pontiac, MI and
Lima, Peru. During the early years of AFA from November 1996 and throughout 1997 AFA
primarily flew commuter flights and a few domestic and international flights. In September 1997
AFA decided to expand its services and established new superhubs in Detroit, MI and Atlanta,
GA, which resulted in substantial growth for AFA. AFA was accepted onto virtualairlines.com in
May 1998 which made AFA a truly global virtual airline.
American Flight Airways Virtual Airlines began codesharing with Pacific Airways (PAY) in 2000
and in 2001 we co-founded the major alliance “The American Pacific Group or in short APG”. The
alliance allows us to share webresources as well as to offer pilots greater flexibility and variety in
the routes and aircraft they can fly.
AFA added a Low Cost Carrier Alpha Jet to its operations at the end of 2004. Early 2005 Kenric
Smith, Thomas Snoeck, Troy Miles and Enrique Garcia –Sayan, completed the conversion of the
international operations of American Flight Airways. The Sydney hub was successfully enlarged
to AFA Australia and the San Juan operations were merged into AFA Latin America. Currently
AFA has 6 US hubs and 2 international divisions; these include respectively Atlanta (ATL), Dallas
(DFW), Detroit (DTW), Phoenix (PHX), San Francisco (SFO), Washington D.C (IAD) and AFA
Australia (main office in Sydney, Australia (YSSY)) and AFA Latin America (main office in Sao
Paulo, Brazil (SBGR)).

2. Requirements for membership
Anyone can become a member of AFA and it's free. Flight Simulator versions 2000, 2002, 2004
or FSX are required in order to fly. While you should preferably have some basic piloting skills
(i.e.: take-off, landing, etc.), we will gladly help you advance in your flying skills. To join the airline,
select a hub of your choice, then click on the hub's image which will take you to its homepage
from there click on “Join” and fill out the new pilot application form. It's that easy. Our automated
