A couple of Suggestions!!!!

Hiya all


This addon is fantastic, Its adds soooo much more to FS2004

Only have 2 things that I would like to see in FSP

1. When you take your aircraft on a flight and land, fsp records the airport you landed at. So when you next jump into that aircraft FSP could tell
you that the aircraft is parked at the last airport and only let you fly from the last airport the aircraft landed at. Could have an option to have
the aircraft transported by another company but would cost you a hefty sum of money to do so.

2. I really would like to see this one the most. FSP record that fuel you had remaining on the aircraft. SO when I jump into the aircraft it only
has the fuel inside that was remaining at the end of the last flight. As it is at the moment Everytime you get back in an aircraft is automaticly
fueled to max. Just would be nice for FSP to remember how much was left.


Only 2 things that I can think would make this complete for me (my personal opinion of course)


Thanks

Right, that would be reaaally cool! :-)

1- was discussed with tester but would have caused a lot of problem (don't recall yet)

2-would be cool but a bit hard to do and would have side effect.... needing more option in menu etc etc... lot of code.
anyway you pay ONLY for fuel you use at least.

Guess what...

If you fly only a plane, Fs record the fuel remaining on the aircraft.

Try this:

After a flight, if you begin a new flight (without exiting Fs2004), the fuel slider of FsP will indicate the remaining fuel from your last flight.

So if you load the "previous flight" in "select a flight" of Fs2004 and begin a new flight for FsP, it will indicate the remaining fuel from your
last flight, as you've ask!

But it will work only if you stay with the same plane from flight to flight!

You can also save a new flight (where you left off) and make it the default flight.

This is what I do to save particular gate positions when simulating an airline career.

Excellent, I know save the end of my last flight as default and it does pretty much what I was asking for anyway


Thanks for the tips guys

Are any of you folks a fan of saving en route during a long flight? (Ex. Seattle => Hong Kong) w/o time accelleration. Many of us only get to
put in a few hours at a time and those longer flights to some do appeal. What joy to be halfway across the pacific and have an engine go
out or have hydralics lost. Imagine halfway to Hawaii and some type of panic happens. I get the impression that simply accellerating time
on those long trips slightly overrides the essence of scanning instruments, feeding/entertaining the pax, encountering weather
conditions etc.

I know a long flight is like watch paint dry but then again I'm an oil painter artist and so I have patience like you wouldn't believe!
Cheers!
