Re: Maintenance times.

I personally think they are just right. As it helps make pilots take more care with their flying.
I expect it is only the Antonov 225 pilots that would want shorter maintenance times, as all other aircraft can be replaced with a spare while one is being worked on.

Re: Allow usage of aircraft

I have been giving this some thought and think I may have come up with a solution that will not really add to much complications. Pilots can always fly aircraft from fleets they are assigned to. The only visible changes to the website would be removal 'If Assigned' option to the 'Allow usage of fle...

Re: Client 2.4.2

I would suggest paying an annual salary to pilots according to their FSAirlines rank. That would make VA's ground their idle pilots. How does the idea of an annual salary apply to next update of the client? Sorry I just picked up on the comment about wages, forgot you was talking about the client.

Re: Range max payload

Good Idea Joe, I have all those figures on a spread sheet, but would help others who can't work these things out.

Re: Allow usage of aircraft

NOPE - Not this airline. System is too complicated as it is. I really do not see what you find complicated Sam, At the moment I can select a fleet manager to look after one or several different fleets. Which is great, and a big shout out for Joe for making this possible. My problem is that the only...

Re: Allow usage of aircraft

If any VA owner would like to be able to allow a pilot to have control of a private fleet, without having to make a unique rank, then please reply to this by saying yes please.

Thankyou BVG951-Alan



Hope this post is ok with you Joe, If not I will remove it.

Re: Allow usage of aircraft

I think I understand what your asking for. Right now you can select for each rank (Yes/No/By Fleet/If Assigned) and you want it changed to (Yes/No/By Fleet) and having 'if assigned' be a separate selection. While it may be just a small amount of additional complexity but it is more complexity and I...

Re: Allow usage of aircraft

I am very confused. How can you assign multiple Fleet Managers different fleets using the same rank? To say the FSAirlines system has grown complicated is an understatement. A person almost needs a Masters Degree in Virtual Airline Management just to understand it all. :shock: Sam it is not difficu...

Re: Allow usage of aircraft

And yes I would assign each manager his/her own rank. As they have different responsibilities, they would not have "the same title". Instead of a generic Fleet Manager rank, you might need Fleet Manager N. America, Fleet Manager Europe, Fleet Manager Asia, etc. In the real world, Regional Dispatche...

Re: Allow usage of aircraft

I can see your difficulty but not sure how your initial idea would help, but as I said the system is already pretty complex and I really don't want to add any more complexity without a very good reason. By being able to select "By Fleet" and/or "If Assigned" under "Allow usage of fleet aircraft" wo...

Re: Allow usage of aircraft

I was trying to avoid having so many ranks, Our auto ranking system is working great, but if this is too complicated then not to worry, it would have been nice to select assigned as well as fleet, but not the end of the world, thanks for giving it a little bit of thought anyway. Non promoted Ranks M...

Re: Allow usage of aircraft

What I was wanting to do was have, for arguments sake, 4 fleet managers, all having the same rank but assigned to different fleets, where they can buy, sell and maintain their fleet, but I would also like them to be able to fly for some or all of the other fleets without having permission to do anyt...
