    In fact, I don't know why there is so much expectation since these intercontinental planes have an average flight time of over 10 hours, how can you simulate a flight like that on a mobile phone? I prefer the regional 737 - a320. I'm looking forward to the 737-800, an Embraer E2, an Airbus A220, that would be great!!

    Well actually long hauls can be simulated on mobile device if you have a device stronger enough or with nice gaming settings. I don't own a NASA phone its actually a verry normal Samsung device and I often do overnight longhauls and extra-longhauls without any issue. I definitely can not wait for the A350 to be released to fly some new routes.

    There is a feature built into Aerofly FS to skip long parts of the cruise, called time-skip. With this, regardless of which aircraft you are flying, you can perform a full flight in a much shorter time than in the real world. With this even a 16 hour flight isn't longer than a 30 minute flight and it opens up the possibilities for all kinds of global flights.

    Speaking of time jump, I have to say a few words, can you let the player decide the desired jump time?

    Well, there isn’t much else you can do if you don’t just get a better device.

    This would be very nice to be able to choose a specific point on the time skip rather than pre-determined intervals. Sometimes I try to time skip to the start of descent but it ends up overshooting to final approach.

    I conveyed this to Jetpack recently, I hope it will happen because this is very important, we will start making intercontinental flights when the a350k arrives.

    I use it all the time ^^ in long trips, specially the real flights we can select (I love the already established flights we can select).

    This would be nice. Doesnt it currently skip the flight by 5 mins only?

    But this will still miss some key places for players.

    No, depending on how long the flight is it could skip anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour, sometimes more.

    It currently skips 1/10th of the total length I think.
