Hi, I found a problem that almost costs me 7M€  :(

When you click on view&buy, you'll see the range of the BAE ATP is more than 2000nm. But when you buy it and you try to create a rute, it appears to have less than 1000nm range! please correct it, it will cause many problems for that

Thank you

After you clicked "Buy" you went to a screen where you could have selected different engines. Most a/c with more than one choice for engines will have different ranges. And the exact range is shown to you before you can click "Proceed." Pay attention you have not?

If you needed over 2,000nm range you should have selected PW126 or PW124A engines. These, of course, cost more.

BTW, when we first select BAe, the range shown for the ATP seems to be 920nm, not "more than 2000nm." Perhaps you were looking at the withdrawn year?

The default engine for the BAe ATP (in W12 at least) is the P&WC PW126 - which has range 2140 (and costs 12.6m)

The PW127A has the 920 range (and is 9.8m)

You purchased the wrong engine.

Or, if buying a used plane - didnt pay attention to the planes specs before buying.
