Cargo airliner - Geryson - 05-01-2009

Hi all!

After 2600 flown hours in the old FSP i decided to change to FSX and a 747F cargo airliner. My only one question is, that will I be able to fly
747F and the new version FSPX? Does FSPX accept that I have only 10 passangers but 400000 pounds of cargo? I'm sure someone
made already the 747F payload modell (or I hope so).

Greetings from Hungary!

If a payload can't be located in FsPX for this aircraft it should be simple just to copy the values from the FsP payload over to your own new
FsPX payload using the payload editor. Let me know if you have any problems doing this. I, or someone else here can assist you.

Great, thanks! Unfortunately i'm not able to find a 747 cargo payload. I found only 1 in the download section, but this seems not to be the
best work... Hunappy

I found several:

Edit: put the "mit" at the end of the link in the browser window, as it will show as a bad link if you don't do this
Hmmm, the link doesn't work...just go to the more downloads section, select payload model and type in 747 instead of Boeing or B747.

Good day,

I have the same interest in flying a Cargo Airline and have found that FsPX is a great program but does appear to have limits for a cargo
only aircraft. I would like to see payload templates for two PMDG aircraft, B747-400F and MD-11F and so far I can only find templates that
have very small limits for the cargo weights. I can see from the Load Manager that comes with the aircraft that the B747-400F needs a
template that allows the aircraft to load 12 passengers and 268,290 pounds of cargo for a full load. The MD-11F needs a template that
allows for no passengers and 210,302 pounds of cargo for a full load. Another important note for these templates is that these aircraft
have upper and lower cargo holds not front and rear so I'm guessing they will need to be tweaked to work properly. It would also be nice
to see templates for similar aircraft on the market that fly cargo only I can think of the Capt Sim B757F and the Level D B767F and there
may be more that I do not know about. Is there someone who could create these special templates and make them available for the rest
of the community to use?

Thank you and have a great time flying!

Jim
