I am a newbie based in TNCM St. Maarten with a small airline flown with Twin Otters and Islanders. I came arcoss a problem when I tried to make a Route from TNCM -> SABA. The program said that I couldn't open the route because Saba's runway is only 305m and the DHC-6 needs 600m. Well in real life I have flown Twin Otters to Saba via WinAir. So is this a problem with the sim or the aircraft config?
SABA is a unique case. It's a tiny, TINY airport -- the shortest commercial runway in the world actually, and pilots are specially-trained to fly into there with only very particular aircraft, and they leave St Maarten on fumes (it's such a short trip) in order for the aircraft to be light enough to make the landing at Saba. Though the game does take into account fuel load necessary to make a flight and adjusts the TOW (and therefore the runway length needed) to suit, I wouldn't doubt that in this case it's outside the realm of what the game allows, though it's done in reality in this particular special circumstance.
