# Dashboard

> Your airline's home page in Stratos, with its news, announcements, your profile and quick links.

The Dashboard is your airline's front page inside Stratos. It welcomes you, shows a message from your airline's team and its latest announcements, sums up your flying, and gives you shortcuts to the airline's own pages. Open it with **Dashboard** in the sidebar.

Most of what's on it is set by your airline, so it looks different from one airline to the next.

## What's on it

### Welcome banner

**Welcome back,** and your first name, over a banner in your airline's colours, with the airline's logo on the right. Your airline picks the banner's style.

### From the Team

A message from your airline's staff: a welcome, news, rules or anything else they want every pilot to read. It can include links, lists and formatting.

If your airline hasn't written one yet, you'll see a short default welcome from Skyvex Software instead.

### Announcements

Your airline's latest announcements, each with its date and title. Click one to read it in full, with its picture if it has one, and **Close** to go back. **Read more →** opens a linked page in your browser.

Announcements come from your airline's own website (such as the news on a phpVMS site) or are written by the airline's staff in Console. When there aren't any, it says **No announcements right now.**

### My Profile

Your photo, name, pilot ID and **Current Rank** (with the rank's badge when your airline has one), then three figures from your airline's records:

* **HOURS**: hours flown.
* **FLIGHTS**: flights flown.
* **AVG FPM**: your average landing rate.

These come from your airline's records, not from Stratos, so they match what your airline's website shows.

### Quick Access

Shortcuts your airline chooses, such as booking a flight, the airline's handbook or its Discord server. Each has an icon, a title and a line under it. Links to websites open in your browser.

## For VA owners

Everything on the Dashboard except the pilot's profile is set in Console, on the Dashboard plugin's **Welcome** and **Quick access** tabs (see [Dashboard](/console/dashboard.md)):

| Setting | What it changes |
| - | - |
| **Welcome banner** | The banner's style: **Isogrid** (the default), **Hexgrid**, **Mesh**, **Rings**, **Beams**, **Horizon** or **Plain** |
| **From the team** | The **From the Team** text, written in Markdown |
| **Announcements** | Where they come from: **From your backend** (the default) or **Written here**. With **Written here**, the announcements you write, each hidden until its publish date |
| **Quick access** | Up to 10 links, each with an icon, title, subtitle and address |

The banner uses your airline's primary colour from **Settings → Colours** and its logo from **Settings → Branding** in Console. **My Profile** comes from your backend's pilot and statistics data. Until you set up **Quick access**, pilots see four default links to Skyvex Software pages, so set your own before you invite pilots.
