About: YGL Corporation is a fictional parent company which manages the operations of three virtual airlines based on the YS Flight Simulator, which you can find at http://www.ysflight.com . The three virtual carriers are Trans Hawaiian International (THI), Trans Hawaiian International Commuter (THI Commuter) and Stellar Airways, a low-cost charter airline. All three airlines operate independently but in conjunction with each other to provide passengers seamless connections at each of the hubs in the regions of Tohoku, Guam/Saipan, Hawaii and the United Kingdom.
News: YGL Corp. recently announced the acquisition of Virtual Northwest Airlines (VNWA), also based on the YS Pilots forum. The acquisition will result in additional aircraft for THI, and will also result the routes in Taiwan served by VNWA being added to both, THI and THI Commuter's operations. In the immediate future however, normal operations of VNWA are expected to continue.

History: Back on the YSTK forum two members Arnie and Cruising (now known as Jetliner) decided to start a little civil group called “YSTK Global” or YGL, this occurred early in 2002. Skyline came and offered his assistance since both members were not very experienced at moderating and helped them both tremendously in getting the group off the ground and operating. YSTK Global was basically a group where pilots flew everything and anything that had to do with civilian flying from small general aviation planes to large airliners. The group was split up to where Arnie was in charge of recreational and general flying and Cruising was in charge of the commercial airliner flying with Skyline overseeing everything and helping both of them. Soon Arnie had to leave, this left the recreational section open. Skyline took up the responsibility of handling the recreational flying section. Skyline worked very hard on the group but sadly the recreational side was not showing enough interest, Skyline then decided to close that group and that just left Cruising. Basically this only left Cruising and his section around so he decided to turn the group into a virtual airline. Skyline still decided to stick with the group even though he decided to close his section. Obviously you can’t have a virtual airline without planes, so over the course of many months Cruising and Skyline had people submit ideas for a livery and logo eventually Skyline’s was chosen “YS Global Lines.” It was decided that Cruising would paint the base coat for the planes and Skyline would add the titles and logos. Despite Skyline’s best efforts he was unable to add the logos to the planes, so the planes were colored all white from the base coat. After some time Turbofan came in summer 2002 and Cruising appointed him as COO, he really helped to give YSTK Global Lines that virtual airline atmosphere through developing extensive route networks and setting up a system for “flight logs.” Although the route networks were favorably accepted, most members were not too keen on being required to file flight logs. After some discussion between YSTK Global and its members, the administration decided to make the airline more flexible with regards to its policies. This decision was key in the continued operations of YSTK Global as pilots were quite happy with this change in policy. YSTK Global was restructured, and at the same time, several new policies were also implemented for the first time in its history. After the restructuring everything went well and YSTK Global was operating as an efficient group. The livery underwent a change from an all-white base paint to a blue on the top half of the fuselage, for the passenger jets. At the same time, a cargo line was launched, with YSTK red on the top half of the fuselage, mirroring the passenger line’s blue. More aircraft were added as well, including the Airbus 340-600 and the Dash 8-Q200. The cargo line was later dropped though due to little interest in flying its planes. In 2004, server vulching became a major issue, and at the same time, tourneys for those interested in air combat were started. This led to the implementation of new rules for server flying. A major fleet change came about in 2005 with the introduction of the 320 family of narrow-bodied airliners by forum member Owl. The 320 and 321 were added to supplement the existing fleet of mainly widebody jets, including the Airbus 310-300, the 747-100B and the 346. Turbofan implemented a new route guide as well for all regions of operation, with aircraft assignments for all frequencies and routes. Some time late in 2005 the forums underwent a new change and YSTK Global was also affected partially because of this change. The new forums had switched website host and changed its name to “YSPilots,” due to this new forum change YSTK Global would change it’s name to “YSPilots Global” respectively. More changes came about in 2006, when YSPilots Global was transformed into a parent company known as “YSPilots Global Corporation (YGL Corp.)” with headquarters in Honolulu, and two main airlines were created: Global and Regional. Global now had an all-mainliner all-jet fleet which included the 741B, the 330-300 from Shin, Owl’s 757-300 which replaced the 310’s and also his 321-200, which was added later on. Regional had a mix of the CRJ 200ER and the Dash 8-Q400. The U.K. map was also adde== Future Plans == The YSATC Group has issued several directives regarding the future of YGL. Beginning March 1, 2008, YGL will move to increase membership through a series of initiatives including the reduction or removal of several membership requirements. All pilots who have been active members for a period of at least 1 year prior to March 1 will also be rewarded with positions on the YSATC Board of Directors.
