Hello!

This topic should be in #live since it is pertaining to IF within the game. The callsign suffix’s are to be used for specific situations.

Examples:

Flight of 2 ( only to be used while having a formation flight )

Heavy ( to be used when over a certain aircraft weight )

Make since? When you click on the suffix it will give you a description of what that suffix means and make sure you meet the criteria before fully selecting the option.

To add on to Blake here, the Heavy suffix should only be used in an aircraft over 136 tonnes (136,000kg), and if you are flying an a380, you should use super :)

Agreed! It isn’t an issue, it’s just a question.

Yeah or #live , thats good

Note: There is an exception for the 757. Even though it is lighter than 136000kg, a number of aircraft flying behind it in a ‘normal’ separation has experienced issues. Therefore, the spacing should be put accordingly to heavy airplanes.
Tip: Wake turbulence is the determining factor. Which means the 757 generates a lot of it.
