Re: New Feature Idea - Ground Aircraft icon

I think adding a 'grounded by va' status would not be too much of a problem, if a VA manager says nobody can use an aircraft I don't see any problem to that. I have been thinking about the aircraft status and if there should be a different 'status' for AC more than two years past due category to mak...

Re: X-Plane and XPUIPC

right now the x-plane plugin is definitely us-stable. Since the standalone client with XPUIPC is working well that's our recommended method. Right now website updates have me fully occupied and I am not certain if Konny is making any progress with the Mac Client (he is pretty busy with family and w...

Re: Should we ground the 737-8 Max?

It could go both ways.

On one had it is real world to ground them

On the other there are plenty of aircraft in our system that are prohibited these days (Concorde, old AC without hush kits etc)

Re: Client aircraft detection

The client knows your aircraft weight and the type and number of engines. Now there is variation within a type for empty and max weight so the client allows range, but if your using two aircraft of similar size and configuration you may fool the client, but you may not get accurate results.

Re: Private Jobs

We have never really done that. We have always said a pilot can only work for one airline, would most airlines allow a pilot do work for other airlines and do side jobs at the same time? So if your a solo pilot, why not create your own solo airline to do your work.

Other opinions?

Should we ground the 737-8 Max?

The europeans have grounded the 737 max and so have many other countries, should we ground it until they its been cleared to fly again?

Re: Maintenance Centers

The system should not allow you to add an aircraft that is too large to the queue in the first place. There could be several reasons why 'by design' an aircraft's maintenance is cancelled. At the time maintenance is supposed to start, the VA or fleet does not have the funds, The VA owning the center...

Re: Maintenance Centers

The 'cancelled' bug was because the center code assumed all VA's used finance by fleet and if the fleet did not have a cash balance to pay for the maintenance it was cancelled, I fixed both it and the change fleet bug. Yes it's quite possible that owning a center could be a money loser. Since it cos...

Re: Maintenance Centers

I found a bug in the discounting logic which is now fixed. I have adjusted the rates for aircraft where work had not been started but for those where the work was already started or even finished I deleted the transactions, so 11 more aircraft just got there maintenance for free.
