Linx, Wallet and Marketplace

Fly with any ACARS, connect with IVAO, operate with SKYLINK Dispatch.

Linx and Credits

Linx is earned from eligible completed operations. The calculation uses distance, the configured Linx-per-NM rate and Pilot Role multiplier, then applies eligible operation, Event, Prime Time, stand, cargo, country-badge, Connection and Aircraft Return rules. Every payment is idempotent and recorded in the Ledger.

A successful Connection adds 25% LINX and 20% XP after completion. A failed Connection assesses 20% of expected flight LINX; insufficient balance creates a pending obligation collected automatically when the full amount becomes available. A Network Exception is not pilot fault and creates no failure penalty.

Correct use of each assigned stand adds 10% XP. Two verified assigned stands add 10% Linx; when only one side could be assigned and is verified, the Linx bonus is 5%.

Credits pay for Marketplace, jumpseat, aircraft call and applicable positioning. When an Aircraft Return Flight needs pilot positioning, the quote is shown before confirmation and missing Credits may be bought automatically with LINX. Conversions, charges and rewards remain traceable in the Ledger.

How Level, Tier, XP and Badges are calculated

Fly with any ACARS, connect with IVAO, operate with SKYLINK Dispatch.

Level, Tier and XP
  • Base XP = (completed flights x 20) + (full airtime hours x 5) + ((total Linx excluding stand Linx bonuses) / 10) + stand XP bonus points.
  • Eligible Marketplace XP bonuses are applied after Base XP.
  • Level = floor(XP / 100) + 1.
  • Tier by level: Explorer (1-4), Pathfinder (5-9), Commander (10-19), Legend (20+).
  • Current streak counts consecutive days with at least one completed flight.
  • Longest streak is the highest consecutive-day run in your full history.
Badge Criteria
  • First Lift: 1+ completed flight
  • Commuter progression: 10, 25, 50 and 100 completed flights
  • 100h Airborne: 100+ airtime hours
  • 7-Day Streak: complete a streak of at least 7 consecutive days; once earned, the badge remains
  • Linx Earner: 10,000+ total Linx
  • Additional badges cover scheduled, cargo, route, airport, time-window, fleet, maintenance, gallery and Flying Together achievements.
Visitor-to-Captain Principles
  • Contract Pilot path is always open: fly, join events and earn Linx without applying.
  • Official Pilot path is optional and requires a separate application.
  • Official gate requires the configured IVAO rank threshold currently shown in profile, normally FS4+ and AS4+.
  • After applying, PIAR window starts and must be completed on time.
Official Track Flow
  • Stage 1 - Visitor: login with IVAO and start operations freely.
  • Stage 2 - Contract Pilot: continue unlimited flights and events.
  • Stage 3 - Official Candidate: first completed flight and rank gate met.
  • Stage 4 - PIAR: complete required flights before PIAR deadline.
  • Stage 5 - Official Pilot: promoted after PIAR success.
