Hello!


I came across this one just now.

ID: airport JAL - Veracruz El Lencero Airport and LAX - Los Angeles with regards to SE 210 Super Caravelle 10B
Type: Aircraft cannot reach destination (will not show up in choose plane section of route creation) despite being in range (1662 NM between these two cities).
Description: I went to create a route from LAX to JAL with a caravelle (as I know a caravelle's range is 1667 NM).  The range between these cities is 1662 NM.  However, no caravelles appear in the choose plane section in the route creation screen. 
Airline Details: Gisa Airlines - ID 21702 [PW # 350]

Thanks guys!  Keep up the great work!

Gisa ^^

The planes actually show up (aircraft id 34836, 34837).

The other planes don't show up because they either run out of flight hours, or they are based in another hub with no connect to either LAX or JAL. Without any connection, they cannot teleport over to fly that route.

I could have sworn I had several planes that were unused.  I'll have to try it again later... ???

Thanks for the help!

Maybe next time you could leave the other planes idle and not assign them to routes? ;)
Once you have destroyed the evidences, it is rather hard to build a case. ;)

Really, I had several caravelles with 24 hours a piece waiting to go.  I am human and I make mistakes but I triple-checked the range.  I remember scheduling planes after that.  I suppose I should have taken a screenshot. :(

Oh well...no blood spilt really.

Ok, so to prove I'm NOT crazy and that I DO know how to play this game...

I ran into this problem again tonight! @@

Thankfully, the evidence is still here though. :)

If you could be so kind, take a look at my planes.  I have a HS121 Trident 1E-104 that I want to fly from Toronto to Bogoda.  The distance, according to the premium gate search feature is 2230 NM.  A trident 1E-104 has a range of 2443 NM.  The trident I want to use has 24 hours left.  I already have a gate rented at Bogoda too.  Why I can't make the route is beyond me (hence I suspect a bug).

Here are some pictures to prove I'm not making this up, nor am I crazy! :lol:







Please take a look at this when you get the chance and see if you can figure out why this is happening. @@
