Hi can someone please explain why a BA B788 can fly from Melbourne to LHR on a contract…but my own fleet B788 cannot fly to Melbourne ?.

This has been a known issue since SYD was released.

This year we can expect a SYD update, let’s wish things are bit solved in this field too…

Non fleet planes, thus map contracts, have a farther distance they can fly. Doesn’t matter which airport you are based at.

Here is a link to all the aircraft in game and the distance they can fly as a fleet plane or as a map contract. Columns W and X in the ‘Aircraft Data’ tab show the distances

Thank you very much for the list. I believe the point made is that it is not according reality, a plane type is a plane type and a mile is a mile and than it shall match with the map contracts and the fleet planes. Do not take me wrong, I love the game, the thing is not a big deal, lower priority however it would be nice to look into this matter in the future by the dev team.

Fleet planes cannot customise the amount of cargo or passengers they carry beyond a certain limit and if done more, their profitability based on game would go negative, for map contracts negative profit for airline doesn’t matter

That’s true. Hope we can have a slider to tune the cargo planes load but that’s another story..
