Hi, all/sami!

I`ve just leased a Boeing 747SP. Where ever i try to fly, like london, paris, new york, madrid, munich etc etc. I can`t!

Either i get a runway req error, or a pax vs payload error. Of course I check the runways and range, and I should be able to fly there.

     *Limited to 358 pax by payload/range  <--- that is one of the error messages i get.

I`m based in Theran, and the aircarft reg is EP-AAE, in "The Modern Times".

Need help fast, since im loosing tons of money on the lease since i cant fly the damn plane! :)

In the aircraft details page, what is the nominal range for the aircraft and how does that compare to the range of the route you are trying to fly ?

In the mean time, find a short route with some passengers and keep the aircraft making some profit of you can, even if it is a small profit margin.

Regards
Richard

The nominal ranga is 5440 NM. But i cant even fly to london er other towns on europe. and thats like 3000NM, or something.

It has to be some kind of bug??

I mean, I should be able to fly to Heatrow from Tehran. That`s 2382NM. Haha, I wanna cry. Just spent 6 mill of lent money, and cant put the plane in to business. haha :)

- Boeing 747-100B/SR: Limited to 434 pax by payload/range.

- Boeing 747SP: No payload or runway limits.

That what it say when I`m trying to fly to ALL the major airports in Europe!

My seat config is; Y: 200, C: 20, F: 10

I am, om the other hand, able to fly to Dubai and Abu Dabi.

But that`s not why I leased a 747 with a nominal range of 5700NM...

Please help me!

Sorry, but please read the message you are getting a bit more closer. In what point does it say that the plane can NOT fly the route?  ;)

Or if it is limited to let's say 380 pax and your seat config is 200+20+10 .. No problem at all?

Ok, I feel a bit stupid now!  ;D

I scheduled the route anyway, and it worked just fine!

Thanks, anyway, Sami! Your the man  8)
