Re: Exceeding aircraft range.
curious question: Can autopilots do the same or are they limited to aircraft range/no technical stops? If you think it's a problem with a couple of cheaters now, if this loophole exists for autopilots as well, expect a proverbial dam bust when autopilots go live to the masses. And no you are not ...

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
Well - new start ups that hire a bunch of auto vons will need aircraft too ... and with the auto pilots limited to 10x multiplier, would 100x for the human pilot be too restrictive? But again, what company starts with a large staff and hundreds of millions worth of inventory? Should have to work up ...

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
I don't see the point in bot pilots doing training flights or being allowed to copilot unless you start requiring two pilots for trips exceeding 10 hours. I have a bot pilot that posted a wrong airport landing but the flight report said he was at the intended destination. :shock: Flight LAS335 Nov ...

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
@Joe: true on the "holiday destinations" not being all that for everyone. I was stranded in San Diego 911 and it was not a happy time either.

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
nope, they just have to have their downtime before they can fly again. Have to be under 10 hours in 24 hours, so after a long flight, I give my Tokyo, Honolulu, London and Rome guys at least one day off before they fly back.

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
Pilot Auto Von Grosse Point Farms has had 4 days off and he is still not happy about "time spent at home". 20.4 / 30.0 LAS215 Just curious: how many days off do they need to boost their happy scale? ahhhhh he had 5 days off in Hawaii (10-30 to 11-05) and apparently didn't like it. Detroit based I ...

Too complicated, then do nothing. Works fine as it is.

Re: Search flight plans by route
I'd vote for that, good idea. I was just scrolling through my list trying to figure out why a certain route was not coming up. Finally found it and got it fixed (fleet assignment thing) but it would have been much faster to type in DEP ARV locations to pinpoint it. Larger hubs with lots of departing ...

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
The whole purpose of beta testing is to try to find any loopholes and/or glitches in the system which is why I have been trying things "outside the ordinary box" of thought. It seems the biggest issue users will have is managing the 100 hour rule without having their pilots quit due to lack of ...

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
OK - here is what I have discovered trying to get an automated pilot to fly different routes on different days: That theory simply does not work due to the way the system looks at scheduled legs. Example: I set up 4 legs for Wednesday only, 4 different legs for Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday ...

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
Data point request : In the pilot profile or logbook, is there a way we can put the name of the schedule they are assigned to instead of having to look through the schedule list to find said pilot? The pilot profile is where I would put it - schedule information is already there, next flight, etc ...

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
Wasn't taken badly, no hard feelings my friend. Totally agree everyone has the option to do what they enjoy without being bound to others' thoughts as to what's "ideal". This is what makes FSAirlines such a unique platform: other than making sure the client logs flights properly and the airline does ...

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
A quick personal opinion and I will not comment on the subject again: The "statistics" posted are NOT a leaderboard for people to try to top as you are comparing apples to oranges to avacado's when "human airlines" can fly at any speed from 1x to 16x. A "human airline" with pilots all flying at max ...

Re: Automated Pilots: Limited Beta
I think the solution on "off day add ons" is to simply make a 2nd schedule and assign it in addition to the original schedule assigned instead of confusing the system with odd ball days within one schedule. EDIT: nope that won't work, can only have 1 schedule per pilot. I will try a rebuild and put ...
