Seaplane bases

[tigge]

Hi

I dont know if my question has been asked before i hav`nt reed it from the beginning, so i just want to ask if the FsPasengers"X"
support waterlandings, if i remember right that was not possible in FsPassengers 2004.

Looking forward for the new relese of FsPasengers"X"

Hope for an answer

I think it should be a fix for FsP 2004 as well I wouldn't mind doing some sea plane flights myself...

Actually, FsP for Fs2004 is already fully compatible with seaplane... Just be sure to have parking brakes availables.

You may have to modify some files, as for a choper, if there's no parking brakes and if you get unwanted penalties.

About 1/3 of my FSP fleet is made of flying boats and amphibians.

Hmmm, interesting. I had thought landing on water was a big no-no within FsP. Thanks for the enlightenment

The only real problem is you get more frequent "failure to arrive at destination" penalties with water airports. The best thing to do is to just not
set a destination. That's pretty much how I fly all the time now anyway; my pilots have all the points they need. An advantage of not setting a
destination is that you can land anywhere you wish, so you aren't limited to fixed water runways.

I actually won a scenario using a seaplane in the fleet. I would drive the plane until the floats were up on shore enough to stop the plane,
and then let the passengers out. They never complained about wet feet!
