Hi all,

I know this is a topic that tends to cause issue here. Those that aren't interested in this need not reply please, there is no need for the sarcastic 'StAtIsTiCs DoNt MaTtEr' replies as some of us enjoy the challenge of it.

I was wondering if the default page for statistics could be changed from 'Passenger Miles' to 'Payload Miles' or even just 'Payload' so that airlines are ranked here upon the amount of payload they move total as the in my opinion the 'Passenger Miles' one is extremely easily abused as we have discovered over the last 7 days with our endeavour to be '#1 on Passengers Miles in May Event'. This involved almost 10 of us flying A380-800's fully loaded over 9000NM every single day. So for this reason I believe it would be better to have 'Payload Miles' or 'Payload' as this includes those that operate cargo only aircraft like we tend to do a lot of the time with the Packages system being essentially perfected at this point it seems like the right thing to do imho.

Thanks,
Adam.

Hey Adam, it would actually be an easy change, and it does make sense the statistics page was created long before we had packages and since then many airlines have switched to cargo operators. Lets ask the members what they think.

Hi all,

Its been a month since I posted this and Joe converted it into a poll.

After our month of chasing passenger miles concluded (that we won btw.) we established that that entire statistic is broken attempting the change up the meta to win that with anything other than an A380 was pointless and I think we've established that passenger miles are officially borked until something can be done about flying 853 passengers 9500nm+ to win.

I believe that payload miles are the answer for now as its inclusive of every single airline and it has a clear majority vote here.

However we are extremely proud of this record that we achieved below:

But we wont be doing it again as it was extremely tedious and tiring haha!

Hi Adam,

Agreed. Its not a very large sample set, but it was a clear majority for payload miles.

As I said before it was not a very big change in the code, and its done.
