The ACARS client
your virtual airline
actually deserves.
Stratos connects your flight simulator directly to your virtual airline. Smart dispatch, live tracking, automatic PIREPs — on every major sim, every platform.
Most virtual airlines are
running on tools that were
never good enough.
ACARS clients are an afterthought in most virtual airline stacks. Pilots drop off. PIREPs go missing. Tracking breaks mid-flight. It's not a technical problem — it's a polish problem. Stratos fixes it.
Request AccessA clunky ACARS experience is a direct hit to pilot retention. If logging a flight is painful, pilots log fewer flights — or leave.
Position data that snaps, PIREPs that submit with wrong block times, disconnections mid-flight. Small failures that compound into a reputation.
Other clients bolt on VA support later. Stratos is built around it — your platform drives dispatch, tracking, and PIREPs natively.
A focused, customisable ACARS client that connects your simulator to your VA. Dispatch from SimBrief, track flights live, and submit PIREPs automatically — on Windows and macOS.
Pull your OFP directly from SimBrief. Fuel, routing, alternates — loaded before you push back, not after.
Real-time telemetry direct from your simulator. Position, altitude, speed, and heading — not an approximation.
Landing detected. Touchdown rate calculated. PIREP generated. You just press submit. That's it.
Your VA connects to Stratos via a documented API. Bookings in, PIREPs out, fleet data flowing — without rebuilding anything.
Move panels. Choose your theme. Show the data you actually need. Stratos works the way you want it to, not the other way around.
Native builds across all three platforms. MSFS on Windows, X-Plane on a Mac or a Linux box — Stratos runs wherever you do.
Built around your VA's identity
Brand Stratos with your VA's colours, logo, and terminology. Custom fields, custom labels — pilots see your VA, not generic software.
Extend from day one
Stratos ships with a plugin system built in. First-party integrations, community extensions, or your own — install, toggle, build. No waiting for the next major release.
Fly any sim.
Stratos connects.
Stratos detects your running simulator automatically and connects without any configuration. Just launch and fly.
We're taking
this one VA
at a time.
We're onboarding VAs individually during early access to make sure each integration is properly set up before we scale. Get on the list and we'll reach out when your spot is ready.
