I did some landing tests of all 11 variations of the B747 we have in the game. Only the 74N is unable to land at 22L and 22R. According to RT, the 74N requires a runway length of 8514 to land and 22L (8401) and 22R (7925) are too short. Based on the other variations, the 74N could use some adjusting (probably need to look at the takeoff distance too). Additionally, it looks like the 74Y could use some adjusting. Hopefully @nyergesdesign can tweak this, we went through this exercise almost 2 years ago and it needs to happen again. Below are the required runway lengths of all 11 B747 variations according to RT: 74D - 6930 74E - 6534 74L - 6930 74M - 6930 742 - 6534 743 - 6930 744 -6534 74Y - ? (was able to land at 15L/33R at KBOS which is only 2559 ft) 😂 747 - 6534 748 - 6930 74N - 8514 Note: I'm going to mention this again. We had the ability to edit these attributes in T!2011, but lost it in T!3D. Definitely need modding capabilities back in the next version ... having to hope and wait on the developers to take action on these "simple" issues can be frustrating.

I'm sure in this case, the issue is related to a heavy gate not being available, but I've also seen this message with non-heavies. Ironically Kev, you replied to this thread. https://forum.simflight.com/topic/84564-custom-real-traffic-4-klga-free-to-the-community/?do=findComment&comment=511548

Ah, that's the nicest thing anyone has said to me this week. 😂

I think you are translating the log file incorrectly. The schedule has 73H and it is getting translated into 738 which is correct. I think the problem has something to do with lfpg_airlines.txt in sp6v16. In sp6v15 this file had 214 airplanes and now in sp6v16 it only has 201. I think this file somehow got corrupted and is causing issues. @nyergesdesign, your thoughts?

I personally think FlightAware is the best data source.

The "Airplane dropped, no international terminal" message appears when a departure is totally dropped from the schedule due to no available gates. The cause is either too much traffic (because of the game engine loading 8 hours of flights) and/or poor gate implementation by the airport developer leaving no places for planes/heavies to park.

@ATC AlaskaGuy You could also just put on your big boy pants and do some research for a change - you can't always expect to get everything delivered to you on a silver platter in life. Grow up! If you read the manual or do the search I suggested, you'd know everything you'd need to know about the command. It makes no sense to repeat what is in those threads. Obviously, the language you used should result in a banning, But something tells me you'll be back as changing your name/identity is not unusual for you.

As I said, this command has been discussed on the forum before and you can easily find out about it by doing a search for "low approach".

As I said, there's some schedule setup work you have do before you can use the command.

@blacklabelbraai is correct, you didn't upset me. I was just wanted you to know I put thought behind my response to you and asked the questions for a reason. I felt fairly confident you just saw a command you hadn't used and weren't really playing around with GA traffic. However, this command has been discussed on the forum before and you can easily find out about it by doing a search for "low approach".

Yes, that's why I asked the questions.

Are you controlling GA traffic and have the GA schedule setup appropriately?

They could, but the special livery wouldn't be so special as you'd see it on multiple planes/flights. Maybe in the next version they could add an optional tail number to the schedule file and when present it would look to see if there is a specific livery for that tail number. Obviously, this would go hand-in-hand with the need for custom mods/liveries. We can only dream.

He attached the schedule.

PANC more than likely is in the airport file. A log file from a recent gameplay would definitely indicate what the issue is.

Start a new topic.

The previous two iterations of this community project (KJFK and EDDM) took 4-5 months from request to delivery. So if form holds, we're looking at January/February for an SP for RC-KSFO to be delivered.

You should really read the first post in this thread: "The forum is getting a bit out of hand, people opening new and new topics for speech.From now we will use this single topics to discuss speech and all other will be locked and directed to this one." So that means it covers all speech related issues, not just a very specific documented issue.

No, we had this capability in T!2011 but lost it with T!3D. There's talk about bring it back in the next version.

I'm Craig. Keep in mind you are playing an 8 year old game that no one really plays much anymore (including me). And sadly, you're seeing issues that still exist today in T!3D. You've posted so much that I really don't know where to start or what your current issue is. I'd be willing to help, but let's tap the brakes a bit and tackle things one by one.

According to FlightAware, all their most recent flight are B77L. @Ripskin, I would suggest using B77F/77F to get the windowless livery. Yep, they've had 12 in their history but no longer operate them. Based on Saturday the 14th, SVA596 was operated by a 32N which is not available in RC. @Ripskin, a good substitution would be the A321/321.

That screenshot is of your terminal file. A better screenshot would be of your strip and schedule. And in reality it should be in it's own thread. This thread is not really for debugging issues.

@FeelThereI know that but I have always felt that the success of your product(s) and my customer satisfaction is also tied to quality RT/RC offerings. I personally feel RT/RC needs to be improved substantially now and for the next version. Right now I see it as a necessary evil and it could very well be a critical go/no go factor for me and the next version.

Was this a FeelThere screenshot? They don't use real airlines in their screenshots. 🙄

I just looked at the Real Traffic schedule for OMDB and there are a total of 632 flights with the peak hour being 04:00 with 36 flights (20 arrivals and 16 departures). According to Real Traffic, CYVR is busier than OMDB. 🤔 Looking at recent OMDB's flights on FlightAware it appears the typical day is easily 1000 flights or more. @nyergesdesign and @FeelThere, would you consider re-doing the RT schedule as it really appears that is not representative of a typical day at OMDB? The airport is getting solid reviews, the schedule is getting quite the opposite. Again, the real volume at OMDB alone (no need for cargo flights from a neighboring airport) should be be enough to satisfy your loyal customer base.
