General Pre-Release Discussion

Hasn’t been for a very long time. Bit strange considering the A320 is as is the E290/95.

Yea, definitely needs to be looked at and fixed

Yes, it isn‘t. Unfortunately only the E170 :confused:

I already listed that here [Routes] - All missing routes for ZRH (as of 3.6.0)

I found that out the other day and was kinda disapointed.

Yes I hope the devs rework this

Yes ba use only the e190 on lcy

This is kind of like LGA with E contracts when only B/C/D are operating there

Are buisness jets in the works? I’ve been noticing that they’ve been getting a lot more room in the newer airports.

I hope so, it would be very intresting

it has been a topic they have discussed a lot. Right now the team is busy with the 737 family and others, so there has not been much mention of it in the last few months, but it is definitely on their radar as a future goal.

We haven’t heard anything about that recently.

It should be considered that not only B type but also BBJ & ACJ. Add more flexible cabin adjustments looks like BEOND and BA1:)

LCY will love that, as they trying for A320NEO from CAA.

Ive been playing WOA for a while and mostly of my contracts are real flights. However, i have been keeping an eye on flight radar and figured out that the Metar on woa isnt the same as the metar in flight radar.

WOA Metar was = runway 34 landings and runway 32 take offs.

Flight Radar 24 Metar = runway 16 take off runway 28 take off
Runway 14 landings

Most airport’s aren’t programmed yet for takeoffs and landings on both sides of the runway I think.

Our METAR data is updated approximately every 30 minutes.

To see the updated weather in the game, you need to leave the airport and then enter it again. This will force the game to load the latest METAR information.

I tried that when I saw this “issue” thing every half and hour for two hours a few days ago but nothing changed. It stayed on 3 runways use

Ok we will observe it.

I second this, every time I’ve hopped on the airport since Friday the airport has been on 3 runway use, which kinda sucks because in that layout small planes taxi way too slow on the runway leading to an empty airport , so I’ve kinda been unmotivated to play ZRH until that gets adjusted.

(Just to be clear tho I absolutely love the airport and just about everything about it, but I just don’t find only have 8-10 planes on the ground at once while my airport is 3 stars very entertaining, especially if it’s because of an issue I think can be easily fixed)

I think ZRH is a really great airport, the modelling is getting better with each new airport, and the ground textures are by far the best we’ve seen yet, alongside the INN remodel. Although, I’m inclined to agree with you. The speed at which aircraft vacate 14 really slows the airport down. When I put tower manager on for 10 minutes, on it’s fastest speed you only get about 10 aircraft in, and it is mostly down to how slow aircraft up to the size of the B753 vacate the runway at that first exit, or with some B planes they just seem to crawl along the runway for a little instead of slowing down a bit closer to the exit and more gradually, like we use to see with B, C and some D planes using the furthest exit at LHR when they are going to the Cargo Terminal.

I know it’s been discussed many, many times before but 14 arrivals needs the high speed exits to flow best, as they are the more gradual turn offs used to get aircraft off the runway at higher speeds.
