Re: Money Sinks

Liability Insurance would cover damage caused to others in accidents other issues and would be based on the value of aircraft owned or operated. Aircraft that operated would pay one level, those that were owned but did not fly a lower and those that were mothballed the entire month would probably b...

Re: Money Sinks

You do mention 'hard mode' FSEconomy has voluntary, self imposed ways to spend extra v$ to simulate various expenses one might encounter running a business in real life. A free form would be voluntary and leave it up to the player's imagination. Hopefully it would be easy to code. One unpopular rou...

Re: Landing Fees

My thoughts are that an airline using a 25x multiplier should break even on leasing a gate when its used from 6-12 times per month. I understand the argument here, however I think this makes gates ultimately only beneficial for a hub airport as I would imagine the majority of airlines probably *don...

Re: Landing Fees

Did some poking around. Noticed that in the last 60 days there have been 7 flights by Cessna 172's into super airports, these flights had an average profit of 348v$. If I was to implement a 400$ minimum landing fee for super airport that would wipe them out. Now KSFO in its document shows a minimum...

Re: Landing Fees

Perhaps you could simplify management even more and attach the rates to the VA Office rates? Thereby also requiring an office to rent gates. The gates could be rented out of the office as well.

Re: Landing Fees

Looking at the numbers I think this is fantastic! The prices definitely seem fair. For instance, it looks like you would save half your landing fees landing at LaGuardia vs JFK which is nice.

+1 on this

Money Sinks

Due to the nature of simulating an economy but also wanting to progress reasonably to airliners, almost every VA flies with a multiplier. Generally speaking, this is good, as it allows your pilots to work towards a goal in a usually reasonable, if not quick timespan, but it seems to be that once you...
