Aircraft Developments - 1986

[StephenM]

Since we are coming up on the year change I thought I'd post what aircraft changes to expect. The Withdrawn aircaft will be de-listed from the purchase page. You will not loose these aicraft if you own any, it just means you can buy any.

Withdrawn from service:

• BAC 111-400
• TU-134A
• DHC-6-100

Coming into service:

• Boeing 767-300

At what date will the Boeing 767-300 be coming into service?

It will come straight into service, I dont do months or days just year beginning.

COOL! What will the price be?

[StephenM]

Strangely the formula says all the same  :?
€169,369,002
It will take 6months to deliver with its 350pax!
Range up to 4,320nm

What aircraft will be availible in the game? I can't find a list anywhere..though I could be being blind!

I haven't got one up, simply because all the data is not in the game yet. I have the game ready up as far as about 1988/89 and thats it. Some aircraft (Such as Airbus/Boeing) are there up to the present day, but the A380/744/777 are not in the game yet.

I love the wider array of manufacturers available here.

There are a few notables missing though.

Saab, Shorts, Dornier(Fairchild), Ilyushin

Cessna, Beech, Piper, Rockwell, Learjet, Canadair, IAI, Dassault, Gulfstream...

[StephenM]

Cessna wont get many, I am not having 2 seaters in the game, I dont want Business jets either as they have totally different economics/markets than the general "bums on seats" airline business.

I want more Russian planes so dont worry about those.

 Canadair

Other than the Yukon/CL-44  the notable A/C from Canadair should appear as Bombadier.

What about the Caravan, Grand Caravan, 401, 404, 410, 411?  They all carry as many or more than the B-N Islander.

[StephenM]

I never mentioned anything larger than a 2 seater.

What aircraft are availible right now? Could we have a system where the aircraft are shown under their respective manufacturers, but you cannot buy them if they are no longer made, or have not yet been produced?

[StephenM]

That could be possible, very like Clear Skies 2 though. I'll have a look into it. The problem is that it uses a lot more resources in the database and slows the laoding time of the pages even more.
