I hate to say this, but landing lights are only required, and I repeat required on landing and take off, not for decent or climb out, but then FAA regulations allows for them to be turned off if using them would interfere with the safe operation of own aircraft or any others in the area, and so if ...

The changes have all now been merged into the main site and the beta site is now looking at the main database. The codes and locations have not yet been updated, but on the airport information page and on the VA airports page you can see those airports whose codes will change and how far the airport...

Most of the features we add tend to have more benefit to the CEO and admins of the airlines than the pilots themselves, but now we are adding a feature where its for the pilots and not for the CEO. You, as a private pilot, can rent an aircraft! Lets say you want to go to the airport of your next ass...

Beta 9 is now released. Improved X-Plane support, Improved Internet connectivity. Added support for aircraft rentals (more on that in another thread). This will be the last beta, if for no other reason that the code that detects you need to update your version does a string compare and v2.2.0.b10 wo...

I have updated the beta site with the new airport information. The airport information page there now shows new code and the new location as preview info. The VA airports page shows on the right the new code and distance its moved. The page we were reviewing the codes show all airports that have eit...

OMG! They are all done! Thanks to mostly Cat one or two others they have all been processed.
Looks like I need to get off my butt and get this project finished.

Andy, A landing gear up penalty is something that i never thought of before. I suppose I assumed landing gear up = crash but as you said that can be turned off. We added the 'hard landing' penalty, partly for those who had crash detection off. I have to admit I fly with crash detection of quite a bi...

Hi Andy, I think my thought process was first to restrict the landing lights penalties to only close to the airports but then to balance things a little increase the ceiling a little closer to the regulatory requirement of 10k ft, but we could bring it down to 3k ft For takeoff we already removed th...

I turned off 'admin only' on the tridents. John must have locked them.

Glad you figured it out.

Excellent! I did some myself this weekend, mostly in africa.

I have spent my last two weekends trying to get the X-Plane plugin to work on OSX and have not had any success. I can get the source to build but can't get XP10 or XP11 to recognise it, and the version I am building on the more modern version of XCode 8 crashes XP9 so for now I think I am going to s...

The aircraft database can be found in the website under Database -> Aircraft types or with this link.

Used the new Beta client twice, both times it reported the aircraft as having landed overweight, despite the fact that it (HS Trident 3) was about eight Tonnes below MLW. It recorded a penalty, but the penalty was zero. Tried the "high speed authorised" button, it gave me a -5 penalty just for clic...
