the extra engine worked!

[GeneralEngineData]
engine_type = 1 //0=Piston, 1=Jet, 2=None, 3=Helo-Turbine, 4=Rocket, 5=Turboprop
Engine.0 = -3.83, -1.6, 2.29 //(feet) longitudinal, lateral, vertical distance from reference datum
Engine.1 = -3.83, -1.6, 2.29 // false engine for fsairlines.net client

yes all working fine now, however helicopter and small private jets dont make a lot of money which is a pitty as i like flying them.

Maybe i can suggest that there should be and extra ticket factor for helicopters and private jets, after all most company CEO's etc fly this way and pay a premium for it.

Hi,

Most of the business jets have a TF applied. Which VA is yours? Please attach a FSAirlines sig to your posts so we know who you are - see stickied thread at top of this forum.

I still have problems with some aircraft, Like with the helicopters (from Hover Control) the A109, B412 and the SK1 (Erickson Aircrane)etc.

I am Sander CEO from ELA (Euro Livewire Airlines) I tried to solf it with the aircraft cfg, but I am not sure where the problem is.
Here you have the stats off the SK1(-crane): maybe you guys can give me a more experienced advice on what to do!?

Hi,

It says its a Jetranger and the weights are about right. Methinks you need to re-download the helo and get a fresh a/c config.

I just checked the inventory of Euro Livewire Airlines, you don't have any B206's in your fleet. If your trying to fly a Erickson Skycrane mission (twin engine MTO 42.000 kg) using a Jet Ranger (single engine, MTO 1.360 kg) of course its going to reject it.

It is comes strait from Hover Control.
I did change the name Jetranger in to SK1, but how to change engine data? And the no I do not have a Jetranger in my fleet.. I never did.

I went and downloaded the HC Erickson Skycrane and took a look at the aircraft.cfg file. The weight and other performance data in it look like it was taken from a jet ranger and have nothing in common with the Erickson Skycrane. Your going to want to find a model that has some accurate information in it. I wish I had a better answer for you.

Your max gross weight is about 10.5 thousand pounds too much. The FSA database has a max gross weight for the DC93 as 48,944 kilograms which equals 107,903.0496 pounds. Fixing the weights will fix your issue
