Hi!

Today I noticed some missing feature (in my opinion): Baggage!

Each aircraft can be loaded with cargo but its doesn't matter if you don't load any (apart from getting less money). But Iin real life a passenger
would be angry not to get his luggage when arriving. So I suggest to divide the cargo section into a baggage and a cargo part.

Say for short legs count 20 lbs baggage for every passenger on board, 40 for long flights. So if you have to take max fuel and cannot take all the
baggage due to trim or weight reasons you would get a slight penalty or at least worse passenger ratings.

what do you think?

regards
Martin

I think that's a good idea...

Baggage is assumed to be included in the passenger's weight. I think the average passenger weight is increased to reflect this.

I agree... Pax weight measures in at 200 lbs. I do believe many airlines use 170-180 lbs (until you get to male/female breakdowns) so the extra 20-30
lbs suggest baggage.
