  1. @pkorkala I appreciate it! 😊 If you could, the next time you run Monday, run it in debug mode and send it to me so I can take a look and see what I need to fix. 🙂
  2. Whenever possible, it would be good to add the 787-10 to the lineup. UAL, SIA, and ETD already have them in service, and UAL starts daily EWR-SFO tomorrow with theirs. 🙂
  3. ¡Saludos! After much hard work and with the advice and input of several folks, I present to you a custom schedule for LEBL - Barcelona -El Prat. But this isn't just a single day schedule. Oh, no. It is a full WEEK of schedules, with each of the seven days having its own feel. And, while it may not have the insane levels of traffic of LAX or ATL, during peak times, this can be a busy airport that can keep you on your toes. Passenger airlines from around the world are represented, with many of the more distant locations sending heavy traffic, to include 787s, A350s, and even a daily Emirates A380. Cargo carriers and GA traffic are also represented as well. These schedules are as close to real life as I could manage. I may have had to tweak a few flight numbers to prevent duplicates, but the flights you control will be the same flight the airlines run. And these schedules make full use of the recent Real Color updates, including Air Nostrum CRJ-1000s and Air Baltic A220s. You will see a few white planes, though, as there are airlines Real Color doesn't have paint for yet. Within each day's schedule, you will see schedule snippet folders to fit and time you care to start. These are recommended, as they provide a more realistic and robust feel, plus it also prevents flights from failing to spawn because of full gates. ------ Included in the main folder are the custom terminal and airlines files that should be used no matter which day you're simulating, along with a list of GA operators. Also included within each day's folder are the full airline and GA schedules, along with a file of hourly traffic breakdowns to help determine when you'd like to start. It is recommended to place the LEBL-battlehawk77 folder in your main LEBL fold, then copy and paste the files needed (after you back up the originals, of course). If you have any questions, comments, or notice any bugs, please feel free to message me here or on Discord. ¡Disfrutar! Gavin (battlehawk77) LEBL-battlehawk77-V1.3.zip
  4. I would think each airline and destination is different. Most likely, the seasonal destinations are ones that are favored by people on holiday, so probably whenever the "season" for that place is when flights to there would happen.
  5. I can confirm that translating the assigned symbol to the appropriate flight number can sometimes be a chore, as I'm in the process of making up a week of LEBL schedules. It is a pain in the you-know-what sometimes to track down a flight number based on the route. It sometimes takes referencing four or five sites to determine it.
  6. So, I have not been able to replicate that R6 taxi bug, but I was definitely able to capture some VERY slow pathfinding during a session yesterday and one today. -Gavin 22JAN19-game.log 23JAN19-game.log
  7. I will do that the next time I run it. 🙂
  8. I'm not sure if this counts as a bug or not, but it seems like it takes some planes a VERY long time to determine a path after being given taxi instructions, especially if they are going from the northern terminals to 7R/25L. Also, any DLH aircraft that exit 25R at R6 don't seem to accept directions from me, but they will find their own path if I tell them to simply taxi to the terminal.
  9. One thing I caught from the GA schedules: Any of the flight or tail numbers that have a '9' in them are spoken as 'nine' instead of 'niner.'
  10. Are there any plans to add military aircraft (at least cargo planes)? I know they're are a couple of airports that have military ramps, and it would be great to add that variety of traffic. 🙂
  11. When taxiing an aircraft through the Apron 2 corridor, how do I refer to the taxiway between W2 and O2? The taxi chart I have shows that is called Center 2, but trying to tell an aircraft to taxi via Center 2 gets translated as S2.
  12. If you paid via PayPal, the download instructions will go to the email address associated with that account. Otherwise, as was mentioned, contact BMTmicro.
  13. As an update, China Cargo Airlines (CK/CKK) now has the call sign of "Cargo King."
  14. An airline that will need to be added is a new Canadian ultra LCC, Swoop. Per their Wikipedia page, they started operations in June of this year. They are fully owned by Westjet. IATA - WO ICAO - WSW Callsign - SWOOP As of right now, they fly in to KLAS, KPHX, and KMCO. Rather a striking paint scheme, too:
  15. Dang, that would be very nice. I'll put my vote in for that once the FT folks open up the request lines...
  16. Three questions for our wonderful developers: Would it be possible to have other weather modes, like overcast and snow? I know snow would likely introduce a de-icing element as well. Plus, there are days when the weather is clear at ground level but there is a cloud deck above. Also, would there be a way to manually set the winds to a realistic direction and speed at the start of a session, maybe even getting the latest update from the appropriate METAR? It was mildly annoying to run LAX in reverse (as it was IRL) and still have the winds blowing for its standard configuration. Last question: Will there be an updates to LAX and PHL any time soon to fix the bugs many have mentioned and to update the layouts to reflect the current runway, apron, and taxiway setups?
  17. Gary: That's the correct livery for ZW now. I only noticed this because I'm a former Air Whiskey flight attendant and I still keep up with them. Regards, Gavin
  18. Running PHL, I have noticed that AWI aircraft are in AA paint and treated as an AA aircraft, when they should be treated as a UA aircraft with appropriate paint. Any way I can fix this?
  19. For me, several YouTube creators (Jeff, Joe, Buggs) showed me how amazing the voice control aspect is, so it was a no-brainer for me. One it went on sale last week (thank you, FT!), I got the wife's blessing and got Pro plus RT and RC (she said it would be part of my Christmas, which I'm 100% okay with). Like others have mentioned, having all of the DLC on Steam would be an amazing thing, as updating is a lot easier. Having the airports on there already is a good thing. Adding RC and RT would complete the set, as it were. And I agree that having a unified version going forward would be good. I'm sure it's a lot easier to develop one product versus two. 🙂
