Hey, i'm new here and this is my first post.
I havn't tried FsP yet but it looks awesome, infact FsP is the main reason i'm buying FS04.
I reckon it would be good (but alot of work) to put in some really difficult (but survivable) situations.
For example:
Engines ripping off parts of the wing as they fall away, thus increasing drag on said wing.
Loss of hydraulics, thus having to attempt a landing purely on engine power.
Rudder hardover/failure/reversal.
Sabotage (bombs on plane, cockpit takeovers etc.)
And more.

Also i like the idea of failed toilets on the plane lol.
Perhaps you could include structuaral (sp?) failures on the planes, like metal fatigue and missing/wrong size bolts etc. and make
investigations on crashes last longer, so that pilots and airlines don't know what happened until a few days after or something. And
make
crashes visible, like, if you were flying over paris, and you crashed into the eiffel tower, when you flew with a different pilot and you flew
over paris, you could see the damage to the eiffel tower, and bits of airplane scattered around. Also, if you were flying quite low (short hop
between citys perhaps?) and you saw a part of an airplane and you knew there was an aircrash earlier, you could report it to ATC, which
would then relay the information to aircrash investigators.

Youv'e been watching Seconds from Disaster or Air Crash investigation for these ideas like the "wrong size bolt on the 111
and the
2
engines ripping off in the Cargo 747 flight from Schipol in Amsterdam and the DHL and JAL 747 lost hyds! and i bet the rudder idea is
from Hidden danger right? i dont think it would just be a cowinky-dink! (Good source of ideas) lol

Lol. Yeah, i watch them programs alot. But i do think it would be good.

I watch it too! Good isn't it?

FSX was a good idea but it came too soon.

don't know what's so good in that idea.

Approach to JFK. FS9:



FS9 + Ultimate Terrain:


and now (drumbeat) - FSX (note the fps as well, lol)



I think travesty is the right word.

Yeah but they scare the **** out of you if your flying anytime soon after watching one of them.

It would be so nice to get the facility back where we can use departure and arrival times. In my experience PAX are far more concerned
with arriving on time than they are with block times.

[michael]

What about telling the pax that the will be delayed or, changing the arrival time IN FLIGHT!

How about an updated VA flight export window? Maybe using a list with tickboxes for each flight (labeled by Flight no., departure and destination).
The limmited functionality of the current one means that if I want to upload flights (say) 120, 117 and 50 only, I would need to upload those three
flights plus an aditional 67 flights which are totaly useless.

i hope they post the patch soon. not rusing anyone but they said it would be 4 months to the new update in januarary

[LennyHH]

Hello,
I've also a suggestion for the update. Maybe you could include a "lease"-function, in order to "lease" a plane for one flight only. So you don't need
to always buy and sell a plane if you just want to fly it once.

Best regards

You can already (that's if you meant cancelling)

Where did you find this January date of post?

Hi there...

First of all I'd like to thank Dan (I guess he's the developer isn't he? ) for this programm which makes flying on FS really interesting.


Maybe it's been suggested and I don't know, but if not: I think it would be great to be able to use the default Seat Belt switches of the aircrafts to
turn seat belts on and off instead of installing a custom (unrealistic) button anywhere on the panel. I don't know if that's possible but if yes it
would be great

[Drew]

i believe that is not possible, as the default seatbelt switches do not give any 'value' to fs9, they are just a plain switch that moves back and
forth. Therefore FsP can not recognise when one has been moved.

I meant changine or telling the pax that the flight will be delayed
