Well if individual pilots are apparently abusing this then surely the solution is simple, remove their privilege to move aircraft.
Job done

We are talking instant transfers of aircraft here not just instant transfers of pilots aren't we. I didn't realise pilots could do that, I thought it was reserved for fleet managers; perhaps that is an easier fix, only let managers do instant aircraft transfers? Come to think of it why can pilots mo...

Flew Concorde from JFK to LHR yesterday, I had landed (FSA gave me a sink rate of 86 fpm, nice softy) but as I decelerated below 50 knots I got a BSOD :( :( Restarted PC, restarted weather, FSA and FSX. Loaded the FSA Autosave flight (paused it as soon as it finished loading) which was about 500 ft ...

[quote]250kn Speed limit Below 10000ft 5% - Aircraft are required to stay below 250 kn when below 10,000 ft. But if the aircraft you are flying is marked in the database as a 'Heavy Jet' you can fly up to 300 kn for the first 30 minutes of your flight. Also see 'High Speed Disabled' below.[/quote] A...

It must be about two oclock in the morning California time so Joe won't wake up for several hours yet

Great that the client displays current fuel weight while flying, any chance that it can display current gross weight as well, a faster way of checking that one is below MLW for the approach?

I don't believe it is a big enough problem to require a revised client version, and some flight models need quite a lot more than 8% to get moving at high gross weights.

The only time I have ever got that penalty on take off run is if I have had to pause the sim while on the runway half way through the take off roll. That is guaranteed to give you a penalty. Without pausing during take of roll I have never seen this, and I fly Concorde at max weight which takes a LO...

FSA shows me at LIMC, but I flew LIMC to EGCC last night then bought a ticket to KJFK ready to fly to Jamaica this morning.

Why am I still at LIMC with no flight recorded back to Manchester?

I am going to have to fly it again now, that's about four hours wasted

Another thought on packages.

I am at Glasgow EGPF, flying to JFK.

If there are packages at Edinburgh (EGPH about 30 NM from Glasgow) needing to go to JFK how about I get the option of them being ground transported to Glasgow so I can fly them to JFK?

Yes, the Rick Piper Viscount 800.

As you say those figures have the exact 430 Kg discrepancy.

I have tried all of the above but I am still always 430 Kg overweight. Even tried loading 430 Kg too much fuel, then going back and reducing it by 430 Kg but to no effect. The only way to get the client to start the flight is by clicking the change button against the passenger number. Any ideas, Joe??

Anybody got any ideas on this one? It doesn't seem to matter how much fuel I load, it is still over weight by 430 Kg, current flight ZFW 24924, fuel 1600, TOW 26524, MTOW 32886, OVER BY 430 KG! It is seriously limiting how many passengers I can carry hence profit margin. (The system won't let me loa...

Just flew a shed load of packages from Glasgow to Manchester, planning to deliver them to Liverpool after landing.

Unfortunately FSA thinks that they are loaded on Joe Cusick's aeroplane so I can't deliver them

Figures in the (fairly extensive) flight manual with the aircraft model show similar figures so I guess they are about right.

Average fuel flow seems to be in the region of 1,000 Kg per hour so my impression is that the reserve of 2,000 Kg (two hours of cruise time!) is probably a bit excessive.
