#234630 Post a picture of the last plane you flew on

Posted by vostok on 30 March 2017 - 05:38 PM in Real World Aviation

I saw a few of those last time I was in KPIT. Is it a nice ride?

 

Yeh it was actually, you get free water and snacks. The cabin is also very quiet. It was just me and my Girlfriend onboard which probably meant a loss for the airlines sadly.

 

And we only went up to 26,000ft I think.




#230912 Worst Planes in AE

Which is the only way to treat a lady like that

Exactly :D




#230833 Worst Planes in AE

Who's still flying VC10s? I could've sworn only the RAF was still flying them and they retired their VC10s a few years ago.

 

Sadly no one, I maintain a Museum one, And we have to treat them as if they would be airworthy. :)




#230724 Worst Planes in AE

Concorde isnt actually that bad, Mine make about 1mil profit each. They just have be routed carefully and preferably with no competition :P

 

Ive never managed to get the TU-144S to make money though  :)

 

And a few helis are hard to make work, but I love the Sea king.

 

I also hate the fuel flow figure they have for the VC-10's, its so inaccurate. I am lucky enough to still work on them and all their data sheets on fuel/performance is competitive to 707's and DC-8's (For fuel flow/burn). I hope it gets changed :disgusted:




#227010 Strange Political Restrictions LGA - HNL

Posted by vostok on 24 November 2016 - 06:42 PM in General AE Discussion

Oh I see thanks, I think before I must have been in an unrestricted world as I remember doing transatlantic from it.

 

but thanks for clearing that up.




#226788 Strange Political Restrictions LGA - HNL

Posted by vostok on 19 November 2016 - 02:50 PM in General AE Discussion

Im in realistic world 1950 - 2020 and I cant fly New York to Hawaii due to political restrictions, Im pretty sure they are the same country and you dont fly over any others.

 

Is this just a bug or is there a reason for this?

#224094 DC9 and MD8X 'Base cost' issues?

Posted by vostok on 26 September 2016 - 12:45 PM in Suggestions and Feature Requests

It does, thats why I posted this, it gives you TWO DC-9 base costs. which is annoying.




#223666 DC9 and MD8X 'Base cost' issues?

Posted by vostok on 16 September 2016 - 12:58 PM in Suggestions and Feature Requests

Couldnt find an existing topic on this so, I found that the MD8X series and DC9 both have the 'DC9' base cost in Maintenance. but if you own the two types you get two separate 'DC9' base costs.

 

I guess this is a little bug?




#222711 Longest Flight

Posted by vostok on 31 August 2016 - 04:11 PM in General AE Discussion

Whats the longest regular flight youve got. Up until 2005 I had the 747sp on almost 9000 mile flight which is around 15 hours (PEK - CCS)

 

Now with the 777-200LR I have a 20 hour 11150 mile flight :D   (PEK - TJA)

 

Of course I have them set up like private jets so they dont make money :(




#221426 Helicopters

Posted by vostok on 06 August 2016 - 07:56 PM in New Players and Questions

I have to disagree somewhat, One I can really make profitable is the Sea King, due to its fuel flow vs capacity I guess but also the huey and chinook sometimes work. The others dont really work,be nice if there was 'vip' demographic or helis had their own attraction.

 

( I know Im not using their actual model names :P )




#219746 Winglets and Range

Posted by vostok on 17 July 2016 - 08:05 AM in Suggestions and Feature Requests

Winglets always  say change range and fuel flow in the game, maybe just the 738 is bugged, if you go to order an aircraft that has the option you can the see the difference it will have before you buy it.

 

 

EDIT: Winglets say they change range and fuel but the only bit that ACTUALLY changes is fuel flow, this mechanic is broken sadly.
