Buying a used plane - Add Repair to 100%

This a very low priority item, but it would be nice to have an option to "Repair to 100%", in addition to current options of scheduling C or D check prior to delivery.

Another thing: Very often, when I buy or lease a used plane, I chenge seating configuration.  Normally it takes 2, 3 or 4 days.  But the granuality of plane delivery is in weeks, so it automatically jumps to 3 weeks (losing 3 to 5 days).  Could we change the granuality to days, rather than weeks?

I'd like to add to this request, that we could choose the % to which the repair happens by ourselves, and would see the cost of that before we agree to do that.

I second both ideas.  Would make for a nice improvement.

I think that only applies to very large planes, yeah? I frequently reconfigure my planes, and doing it to a medium/large plane has never caused the delivery time to increase.

Yes, it used to be only on very large planes (in 1.2).  The extra delay has been removed in 1.3.

+1, but with a repair to XX% option, rather than just 100%

+1 I have been patching up old metal in MT6 due to only having clunkers available--but I don't want to pay costly C/D checks initially to get them all the way to 100%.
