Hi there,
Most of these have been discussed in the past. What you have to remember is that FsP is NOT an airline manager. Yes, it does
have economic management but that's not the primary goal of the program (it's there more as a bells and whistles). FsP is there to
empower you when you are flying. It's there to give a purpose to your flight (not to your airline). When it comes to automated pilots, route
assignment and multiple aircraft flying at once you are running out of the scope of the game. That doesn't mean that they are not good
ideas that shouldn't be explored. It simply means that Dan will probably not devote any of his time pursuing those. What you are asking
for would probably take around 1 year to program (I'm not a programmer but when Dan sees this thread, he'll let you know).
To me, the only recommendation you've brought forward that could probably be implemented would be the idea of passenger load being
higher at and to large airports (KJFK, KLAX, CYUL, CYYZ...) then they would be at and to smaller ones like those found in remote
Canadian villages.
Ultimately though, it's up to Dan to decide. Since he is the only programmer, he knows what can and cannot be done and in which
timeline.
