We talk with Jet Card founder Sean Doyle about building a business aviation companion app that gives every flight a reason, from AI-generated charter backstories to a full operator ecosystem. We also get honest about integrations, developer expectations, pricing pressure, and what it takes to keep immersion fun without turning it into a second job. • Sean’s flight sim background from early Microsoft Flight Simulator to VATSIM • The problem Jet Card solves for business jet flying in MSFS and X-Plane 12 • Procedurally generated charter demand paired with AI narratives and deadlines • Company ownership, pilot hiring, and running a virtual operator economy • Real-world business aviation flavor through FBO calls, fueling, and coordination • Contrail Falcon 50 integration and why in-sim triggers are a big deal • Launch growth, server scaling, and filtering community feedback into priorities • Pricing, value, and why “roadmap expectations” can distort add-on development • The Operators update with brand-forward pages and specialty missions like med flights • Jet Card Live plans for AI voice interactions plus optional subscription costs • Rapid-fire favorites, underrated airports, and the Gulfstream licensing reality
