Hello everyone. Please read it’s not 3D building related.
I was on a flight - LFPG / FMCZ - and thought it’d cool : you have to wait for the passengers to be boarded, tanks to be fuelled and cargo to be loaded.
Time of completion will be chosen by the player or skippable.
What do you think?
Not bad idea but as I am bit older person. I would like to see improvements on aircraft performance, handling, cockpit, navigation, simulating engine fails, navigation, cabin decompression…etc. yours good idea but dev won’t have time for everything. Either we get bling bling bells and whistles or real flight simulator
Or you could just move the sliders really slowly with your finger. kidding
If there is anything you would like to see, I highly suggest combing through #features or creating your own topic here. Would love to see great ideas. :D
Although, only ones that are not duplicates/ are actually necessary and reasonable.
@coffeeteaorme didn’t awnsered to me but to @GatwickGuy :)
@mac104 I actually did this on arrival.
I like where you’re going with this. Hopefully, this topic isn’t a duplicate. Allow me to ask, do you mean perhaps a feature that can suggest realistic load factors/fuel load/passenger amount before your flight? I think that would be useful :)
I love this idea, even though it will just be a “virtual information” that comes up, it will make a sense of purpose during those awkward “so, what now, just exit…just like that?” iddle moments after parking to gate - after a hard earned landing. So “lonely” and sad.
Plus, if it becomes a procedure (that you can choose) it’ll remind some of us (er…me, lol) that your plane do have passengers and cargo weight to consider, and do need gas to run on - it’ll be great like in real life to have pax and cargo weight assigned at random by IF and that information pops up for the pilot. Exciting pre-flight calculations and virtual profesionalism awaits.
Hang on I’ll try to free up a vote, cheers mate!
Load factor already exist in IF. I think he meant when he waiting in gate he wants progress bar something.
I would love that feature I feel you
Allow me to elaborate: I meant maybe information assigned to you depending on route and aircraft and not just the load factor we already have implicated on the sim. For example: “Suggested for Boeing 767-300, RJAA-RPLL: 115 pax., x amount of fuel, etc.”
Apologies if my wording threw you off earlier or if this isn’t what they meant at all.
It’s a really good idea
I meant like you have to wait for the passengers to be boarded, tanks to be fuelled and cargo to be loaded.
Yes, that would be a good feature! In the meantime while waiting, you could possibly even go through IF Checklists whilst your plane refuels. :)
What you have said
Makes sense becuase i read what you said above and i was a bit confused what u said now it makes sense
Really nice idea
So is this your feature you want a deboarding process and an example is you have a a bar that says how many passangers or cargo has been unloaded and loaded
I like the idea, but feel it a bit redundant as it is just a timer as people board. It would have to be optional as in real life boarding can easily take 30 minutes. Most people don’t want to be waiting that amount of time. Even though I try to fly realistically I often don’t have enough time to sit around for half an hour for everyone to get on.
I can see the appeal if we had 3D ground vehicles etc, but unfortunately we don’t have that, and it most likely won’t be coming soon.
I understand your point.
But I’ll add if we can change the time of boarding etc.
