I have this idea from a FSX Server i've played on:
Basically, you could interact with a bot over chat... Because english is not my mother language, i just copy the help from the new users intro:
Flying gives you points. Where do these points come from?
You gain 1 point per minute just for flying on the server. Cool, right?
You lose points for crashing and disrupting others.
You gain again points if you fly (not too easy) jobs for the Bot. How? Simply type !job into the chatbox while you are flying or parked at some airport. This will give you a random destination as an answer on chat but if you want to fly to a certain place add the airport ICAO behind the command: !job< ICAO>. (example “!job EDDF”) If you succeed, you gain between 80 and 500 points. If you fail, crash or disconnect you lose the same amount...There is a time limit to perform the job. It can be checked typing !status. Job's speed is limited to 500 GS (Ground Speed.)
Other job types:: !propjob !cargojob !jobliner !vl (Virtual Arline). Type then on chat and check the BOT answers for more details.
Jobs can be cancelled typing: !cancel This costs 20 points. Jobliner and VL differ from this rate wether you are on the ground or flying.
You loose 20 points each day.
Certain countries air spaces will bill you a little amount of points if you don't have the current license required to fly inside them (such as the U.K. and Russia). A voice and chat message will advise you. To get this license you need to pass exams on server. Check forum for further details. Each license costs 2,000 points and you have a month to pass the exam.
That server has also a virtual airline function where a group of pilots can do jobs together and gain experience points...
Those features are heavily used and the server is mosty full (about 50 people)

So far so good!
No question, i have years of perl scripting knowledge and could easily create such a bot for flightgear... But... would you like to use it?
Note that even if such a bot is in place, no one is forced to use it because the bot reacts only to commands...
I thought of storing any info in a sql database, so later, a nice website could be created to manage airlines and flightplans...
If you have more ideas / criticism, i would be please to hear from you

edit: ive changed the title to the now known project name, this thread, especially the 1st posting will be edited from time to time to reflect changes and thoughts
