A corporate aviation ecosystem for Microsoft Flight Simulator and X-Plane — Pick up charters off the market or generate trips with virual clients taking the virtual elite across the globe. Freelance flights to build cash and work your way towards your own operation buying aircraft and flying with your friends.

JetCard turns your simulator into a fully-modeled business aviation operation. Follow two paths, fly for NPC Operators as a freelancer in JetCard's equivelent of free flight or work your way up to becoming a player-operator. Accept charter requests or trips from generated clients, manage your aircraft and pilots, run an operator with a real cash flow, and build your reputation flight by flight.

The app integrates directly with Microsoft Flight Simulator and X-Plane 12 via SimConnect or X-Plane's WebSocket API. SimBrief and Navigraph hook in for integrated OFP and flight planning data. Live position tracking, multi-leg trips, sports team charters, VATSIM event flying — it all runs alongside whatever aircraft you're flying.

Every decision in JetCard has a real impact, the planes you buy/lease have financial impacts — fuel, maintenance, ground handling, and depreciation are all live values.

Every leg has a full context tied to operating out of the World's busiest business aviation hubs with accurate FBO data and aircraft performance logic. Correct FBOs, simulated hotels, ground handling and catering instructions on arrival all give an immersive feel to being a real world corporate jet operator. Charter clients and destinations blend between real and fictional: simulated Fortune 500 companies, real sports franchises tied to their actual road schedules, hospitals, universities, government agencies. Whoever you're flying is traveling to real places for real reasons.

Every charter ships with a generated dispatch briefing — context about who the client is, what they're doing in the destination city, and what's waiting at the FBO when you land. Multi-leg trips get full narrative dossiers that read like an account manager's hand-off. Co-pilots have regional voices that match the route. The simulation surface is filled in by language and story, not just numbers — and that's where most of the immersion lives.

Charter Generation

Procedurally generated charters tied to real organizations, sports franchises, and event schedules — over 5,000 active jobs at any time.

Operator Management

Form your own charter operator, hire pilots, set pay rates, manage bases, and run a real P&L on every flight.

Aircraft Marketplace

Buy or lease aircraft types from with a working marketplace, depreciation, and broker fees. Bank financing and JetCard Care included.

Dispatch & OFP

SimBrief OFP generation, weather, NOTAMs, FBO selection, and VATSIM prefile — all from one EFB-style dispatch module — allowing you to never need to leave JetCard.

Live Tracking

Real-time position, phase detection, landing rate capture, and trail visualization. See other pilots on the live map alongside your flight.

Sim Coverage

MSFS 2020 / 2024 via SimConnect. X-Plane 12 via the v3 Web API. FSUIPC and X-Plane 11 supported via fallback bridges.

Ground Handling

Fuel trucks, catering, lavatory service, GPU, and ground transport are all coordinated from the dispatch panel. Every flight has a real handling phase with its own costs and timing — pick the right FBO, sequence your services, and your turnarounds stay on schedule.

jPhone

The in-app phone is your central hub for the flight day. Operations Center messages, FBO requests, dispatcher updates, phone calls, and text threads all flow through one place — the same way a working pilot would manage their day.

Aircraft ownership is the long game

Between purchase price, financing, fuel, FBO fees, and maintenance, every aircraft in JetCard carries real costs whether it's flying or sitting on the ramp. Owning a jet of your own takes time, and that time is part of the experience — not something to skip past.

Most pilots spend their early hours flying as freelancers for NPC operators, building cash reserves and reputation before taking on financing or forming an operator. There's no rush. A light jet that flies consistently will pay you back faster than a Heavy Jet that sits unused.

When you're ready to scale, scale into demand: prove the routes, watch the cash flow, then add capacity. Plan the way a real operator would and the simulation rewards you for it. Because the economy is intentionally realistic, users should not expect to leap straight into VVIP and Commercial aircarft ownership.
