Well that was changed to 32 because of your bug report, so....

A DC-3 with 320 seats? Don't give the airlines any ideas

Ooo, they made a Civilian Version of the C-130, too late, I've had one!

Will the new airport model influence runway length?

qunow · « **Reply #166 on:** September 19, 2017, 10:15:50 PM »

And, with the new scale, how will refueling airport option be affected?

Sami · « **Reply #167 on:** September 20, 2017, 09:30:31 AM »

No changes for runways. Techstops will be changed a bit.

Just looking for a bit of clarification here.

If I was based out of Shannon EINN, does this mean the more I grow and expand my airline, the airport EINN would grow as well?? Would demand to the airport itself grow also??

Here's a good read on the subject if you haven't read it before. Essentially, yes.

Other than catchment area, would increased airport size also affect the demand native to the area around of your airport core?

I've notice the new airport classification. No opinions yet. Too early.

Anyway it seems that the filter in researching the routes doesn't work as expected. Whatever I put in the infrastructures filter, it finds all the airports.

JumboShrimp · « **Reply #172 on:** December 10, 2017, 02:24:38 PM »

Is the catchment area implemented (for cargo)? Is it related to airport traffic level?

Could it be shown on the map on the airport change?

Hi Sami,

Just want to confirm 707-320 conversion of freighter is available to current GW1. Or I need to wait until the conversion model makes available some time when game world proceed.

Thanks

from what I see, Turn around time for IL62M & MK is 100 minutes in the brand new GW3. Is it normal?

NovemberCharlie · « **Reply #175 on:** December 17, 2017, 08:45:33 PM »

I just noticed the 777-2xx models will be able to be converted to the 777F.
However in real life 777s are unable to be converted to freighters, due to too weak floor beams.

Min TaT?
It is the same in GW#2 for min TaT. Been just changed, but for new games only.

The latest a/c update batches have not been run into GW#1 yet but I will do that at some point soon. Not sure if that model is there yet; will be.

It's updated to master database but GW#3 was created before this update already. However not a big issue in my mind since in 2000 IL-62 is quite beyond its useful life.

Any further info on this? The conversion can be removed (though for game play purposes I would find it useful to be there).

From the latest changelog regarding logic for demand calculation:

Quote from: Sami

[..] (for pax demand the results will be "hard-counted" at ~1200 the next day) [...]

I don't understand what this means. Will demand of the airport increase 1200 pax per game day spread out to all routes?

•Detailed cargo load factor information now shown at Manage Routes listing page.

Excellent. One small cosmetic item: Could the cargo types be abbreviated L, S, H instead of CL, CS, CH? The extra letters are causing some text wrapping issues under some conditions.
