Division Transfer
The South Caucasus division sees itself as a colourful, international division that
is open to all nationalities.
The South Caucasus division never has and will never actively approach
members from other divisions and encourage them to switch to the South
Caucasus division. In particular, the XT Division makes no promises about the
possibility of filling staff positions. We as the XT Division act strictly according to
IVAO regulations.
Nevertheless, everyone who wants to change is welcome. However, members
should be aware that we work according to IVAO rules and that another change
is not possible for 12 months.
All staff positions are filled in strict compliance with the IVAO regulations. Even
though we would very much like to fill some positions today rather than
tomorrow, the 3-month rule is strictly observed and no exception will be
requested from the Exec team.
We are an international team and consider ourselves as a family. There are
sometimes quarrels in a family too, but we try to resolve things with respect.
It is your sole decision to join our division. Nobody would ever ask or
press you to join our division.
If you want to come to us because your friends are already here and they asked
you to switch to us as well, this is your private matter that we as staff will not
interfere with.
How do I apply for a division change?
Upon initial registration, members will be asked to choose a division that they
wish to join. If you would like to be transferred to another division, make sure to
choose an active division. We will not execute division transfers to inactive divisions.
A list of all active divisions can be found here:
https://www.ivao.aero/Content/About/Divisions.aspx
According to department rule M.3: Division Change request: “A user may once
per 12 months request a division transfer, all transfers are subject of approval by
the users prospective division and the Membership Department.”
Are there any restrictions and limitations?
Yes, there are a couple of restrictions. Before you request the division transfer,
make sure to read these points:
Be aware, only one division transfer per year is allowed.
Contact us only with the e-mail address that you are currently using on
your IVAO profile.
We will not process any transfer with no VID in the subject line.
We will not process any transfers to inactive divisions.
We will not process any transfers from suspended members.
In case you have a pending exam, please finish it or request the training
department to cancel the pending exam.
Make sure to use English only, if you are unable to communicate in
English, please contact your division staff for assistance.
How to request a division transfer?
A division transfer request is very easy. Make sure to contact your new (desired)
division, the old division and to the IVAO HQ Membership Department.
Please follow and execute the following steps:
STEP 1: Send the request to old division: xx-hq@ivao.aero and new
division (our XT Division): xt-hq@ivao.aero with CC
to members@ivao.aero (in only one mail).
STEP 2: Make sure to add members@ivao.aero as CC (Carbon Copy).
STEP 3: Write in the subject-line the following title: Division transfer *VID*
(make sure to replace *VID* with your own VID!)
STEP 4: Write in your e-mail why you would like to be transferred to another
division. The better your motivation is described, the better and sooner a
decision can be made.
STEP 5: Check, Check & Double-Check! Nothing is better to double-check
everything. This will help us to process your transfer request a lot quicker.
After you have checked everything, you can send your request. We will try to
manage your request within 10 days.
