While we have a very detailed passenger system, why not implement a cargo system as well ?
We already have 3 classes of passengers. I don't think it would be so hard to create a 4th class, but then not in pax, but in tons of cargo.
With this change, you could also implement 2 new categories of aircraft : Cargo aircraft and Combi aircraft.
You can even implement a rule that allows passenger aircraft to take (limited) bellyfreight. For example :
Passenger aircraft can take 1 ton of cargo as bellyfreight per 30 passengers (So an aircraft with maximum seating capacity of 300 passengers can take 10 tons of bellyfreight)
Please share your thoughts on this, as I am curious if this idea would find support in the AE community.
If this idea would be implemented, I would be happy to help gather data on cargo & combo aircraft.
Best regards,

This is already on the development plans for AE.
