Does any one know why it is impossible to replace a whole model of aircraft when having some others available? At this moment I'm willing to replace all my A313 and when clicking change aircraft no optional aircraft appears and I have various available planes able to replace the A313. I can repace all other models with no problem. Thanks in advance for your prompt response.

It could be the case that your other replacement aircraft do not have the capability of completing the full schedule. I.E the aircraft is not fast enough therefore the timetable would not be completed, it may be a case of range or runway required etc.

I now have over 100 B762ER idle because I cannot swap them. There is only one engine type.
Example (Aircraft ID):
4999
6103
8902
5528
6649
12118
The first five are based out of BDL and the last one is based out of ATL.
Also having issues swapping A313's and B763ER's.

Check the aircraft speed and turn time - this is what is causing the delay.

All aircraft have between 139.001 to 140.000000* hours.
* - Which is unfairly classified as have -1 hours. Yes, I calculate out to the 6th decimal point.

I have only one plane with -1 hours. The other 85-ish B762ERs have 0 hours.If it is -1 hours then it won't do it

it rounds 0 to -0.4999 to be 0. so if its just ever so slightly over hours then it won't transfer but it still reads 0.

Again, the most number of hours I have on a plane is 140.000000 hours (to the 6th decimal point). The other planes have less than this amount.

If the new aircraft has a slower speed or longer turn time and your old schedule is packed, it may not have enough hours. A schedule that takes 140 hours on the old plane may take more than 140 hours on the new one.
Other than that, check the runway and range requirements.

Like I've said. There is only one type of B762ER available in the game. They all have the same speed, turn time, range, engine, etc.
All aircraft that need to be replaced have somewhere between 139.000001 and 139.999999 hours.

When I try to move all routes off of #4999, it does not give me a list of planes. Just a blank page like in the OP. I have three others just like #74163 that should be available.

Excel does. This is just to prove that I don't have more than 140 hours.

What I've deduced is that you cannot swap planes if it uses between 139.500001 and 140.000000 hours. So you're penalized for having an efficient fleet. Awesome.
