MESSAGE RECEIVED · 00:04Career companion for MSFS 2020 & 2024
Pilot Journey. A living career for Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Your next flight should change everything.
Pilot Journey runs beside Microsoft Flight Simulator and reacts to every operation with airline messages, live news, reputation and decisions that follow you into the next leg.







A living career
The flight ends.
The story doesn’t.
Most career tools record what happened. Pilot Journey decides what it means. One result can reshape your reputation, trigger an airline response and put a real choice on your desk.
Your performance becomes part of the living industry feed.
ARTICLE FILED · 00:09A new route network opens, but leaving your current base carries a cost.
Your airline knows you.
Dispatch, safety, training and crew planning send messages tied to your actual career state.
Your performance becomes news.
The World Dispatch turns results, markets and airline events into a world worth checking after shutdown.
Your decisions survive the session.
Contracts, ratings, bonds, finances and reputation remain connected in one continuous history.
The operation loop
Choose here. Fly in MSFS.
Come back to consequences.

Open the full support deskIs Pilot Journey a flight simulator?
No. Pilot Journey is a career companion that runs beside Microsoft Flight Simulator. You keep flying in MSFS; Pilot Journey builds the assignments, messages, reputation, finances and career consequences around each flight.
Which simulator versions are supported?
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024 are supported for live tracking on a Windows simulator PC.
Can I use Pilot Journey with Xbox or PlayStation 5?
Not in the current version. Xbox and PlayStation 5 support is planned for a future update. For now, Pilot Journey requires Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 or 2024 on a Windows simulator PC.
Can the career console run on another computer?
Yes. A same-PC Windows setup connects directly through SimConnect. The Pilot Journey Bridge lets a second Windows PC or a macOS career console receive telemetry from the Windows simulator PC over your local network.
Is SimBrief required?
No. SimBrief is optional. Connecting it adds your OFP, filed route, schedule, cruise level, fuel figures and alternate to the operation briefing.
What happens if MSFS disconnects or crashes?
Live telemetry pauses while the simulator connection is unavailable. Reconnect from Sim & telemetry when possible. The active flight is stored on disk, so reopening Pilot Journey after a crash returns you to the same active-flight state; the full recovery flow is documented in Support.
Where is my career saved?
Your career is persistent on the career-console computer, so logbook, reputation, finances, ratings and contracts continue between simulator sessions. Pilot Journey also keeps rotating automatic backups; Settings lets you create or restore a career backup, while Logbook can export CSV or JSON.
Is Pilot Journey a subscription?
No. Pilot Journey is a one-time €30 licence with two personal-computer activations. There is no recurring subscription.
