I think we should let Ipacs focus on upcoming aircraft (333) only so we dont get delays in that

I'd be fine with an A350-900 (NOT 1000- we have too many stretched variants and none have been converted into "regular" versions yet) if it had KLM/Delta/Air France/Swiss liveries (some are future operators).

Also, since we have been told that the reason for selecting large variants is to shrink them eventually, I'm hoping to eventually see the A319 (or A321 which has different flaps), B777-200LR, B787-8/9, B737-700, B737 MAX 8, CRJ700, etc.

HOPING for An Airbus

An A330-300 would certainly be nice!

Quote from Jet-Pack (IPACS)

TCAS is not implemented yet and the number of aircraft encountered depends on the simulated time for the traffic. It's based on recorded real world traffic, so just like in the real world there are times where the route over the Atlantic is almost empty and there are times when it's full.

What are the peak times? I would like to fly on an NAT (not actually implemented) when there is traffic in the eastbound direction, but I have yet to see an AI aircraft on transatlantic flights.

Quote from sherdil

a321 LR could be an option

Perhaps... but it's a bit slow at mach 0.78. The A330 cruises at mach 0.82 which is far better for flight time.

Again, we don't have an optimal aircraft for the shorter/less dense transatlantic and transpacific routes.

Jet-Pack (IPACS) Same thing for YSSY 16R

Quote from sherdil

yes these would be easy to model with bit of work on fuselage and physics

Also, Jet-Pack (IPACS) said the primary reason for the lengthened variants is to create the option to downsize them. I'm a little disappointed that there is no announcement of such a thing happening. I'd love to fly VH-ZNH but can't do so.

Quote from sherdil

I also noticed this we dont have mid range aircraft I guess A330 would be the best option cuz both 757 and 767 are older aircrafts as compared to A330. I use A320 with Extra 2 tanks of fuel to stimulate longer range same as for 737-9 and MAX

I notice you fly long haul quite frequently! So do I. It would benefit the both of us greatly to have an A333. Also, I'd like to see variants of planes such as the B777-200LR and B787-9.

Hello,

We have quite the selection of aircraft in Aerofly FS. However, we must note that there are not many aircraft for mid-haul flights. The B777 is suited to Transpacific flights and the B787 is quite high-capacity with an average seating load of 290-330. The A320s and B737s don't have more range than 6 hours' flight time. Shorter and less popular transatlantic and transpacific flights are not viable on large widebodies. Therefore, flights from around 3000-5000nmi that aren't too popular would work on:

A330-300: We don't have too many Airbuses

B767-300 or -400ER: Mid-capacity but cruises at only mach 0.80

B757-200WL: Decent performance but not too dissimilar to the new 737s

What do you think of a solution? (i.e. which middle-of-market aircraft is best?)

Please feel free to let me know in the comments! I'd love to hear

Quote from Ethan's Aviation

Would love to see this livery in aerofly

And Qantaslink

Quote from WAR_Capybara

I agree rn Malaysia,Indonasia and other SEA countries are ded

And China, Taiwan, Philippines, etc.

Quote from WAR_Capybara

I agree with this as I would like the current aircraft sounds to be reramped and with the new update with global I think Ipacs with the new region of Asia need to set up the area

Eastern Asia and Central USA should be considered

Quote from Overloaded

Would it be easier to convert it back into the 737-200 that the -500 sim model was modified from, would restoring the original thin engine nacelles be easier than generating a longer fuselage for a -300/400?

The wing was new for the Next Generation -600, -700, -800 and 900s, quite different from earlier 737s.

The current (not really correct for most -500s) all analog instruments are worth keeping in authentic form in a 737-200, I loved their ‘reveal everything’ thrust reversers. The taper on the last metre of jet pipe was clearly visible🤓 It provided the nozzle’s thrust with reduced jet pipe friction loses🥰

The more modest -200’s JT8D engine thrust would also be interesting. Some lovely retro 70s to 90s liveries would be possible.

(P.S. can we let threads evolve naturally please)

Yeah: I wasn't really in depth as I was quickly writing a short-handed response.

Quote from Flyish

Are the -500 and -700 not different? The -700 is longer and has different performance specs (MTOW, range, etc.)

And an entirely differing cockpit but they look similar when a -800 and -900 look quite different due to fuselage length

Quote from Flyish

Sun Country never flew the 737-300.

Delta never flew the 737-300 in its current livery

They one is true, BUT: Sun Country operated -700s without winglets.

Quote from Flyish

There are other liveries in Aerofly that never existed in real life:

- Cathay Pacific A320
- American West 737-500
- Delta 737-500
- Sun Country 737-500
- Southwest "California One" 737-500

Why were these added to Aerofly if they never existed? Most notably here, there are many 737-500 liveries that never existed. Could this not apply to allowing the Southwest, Ryanair, and American liveries on the 737-900 or MAX 9?

Let your designers have fun and give us these major operators. It feels like a massive waste not to be able to fly them on Aerofly's amazing new 737s.

Unless of course, you do plan to add the 737 MAX 8 or -800 in the near future. Otherwise adding these "fake" liveries to the -900 and MAX 9 can serve as a solution in the short term.

The B737-500 is extremely similar to the -300 which those airlines flew.

And also, the KLM B747 should have text like this:

Right now, the wing is completely blank and it's somewhat bothersome considering the significance of the livery. It is the first livery to be shown on the aircraft selection menu ("flagship livery:" Like the Lufthansa A320 or the ANA B787)

Quote from Jet-Pack (IPACS)

We're working on adding a lot of new liveries of different aircraft but I don't know which liveries are currently being worked on and for which aircraft. So more liveries are coming, I don't know which ones.

Great to know! I'd love to see my requests implemented but any livery is a good one! By the way, on the new Corasair B747 F-GTUI, the text on the nose landing gear doors is upside-down. It should look like this:

Quote from Jet-Pack (IPACS)

Yes, perhaps we should remove the fake Q400 repaint to be more consistent. It was made by one of the designers for fun and wasn't actually supposed to be released.

But it still is good: I enjoy using it to fly in Australia at the moment for Qantaslink. The Q400 doesn't have many liveries of current operators though, such as Porter, Qantaslink, Luxair, Ethiopian, ANA, and more.

Quote from Jet-Pack (IPACS)

We limit the liveries to those that actually exist in the real world. None of the airlines that you mentioned flies the 737 MAX 9 or -900ER.

For "Real world,"

May I please know if a Qantas livery will be made for the B747 and if the A320 will have Jetstar and Qantaslink liveries and if the Q400 will have a Qantaslink (Network Aviation) livery? Also, will the KLM B747 be improved with winglet logos and logos on the engine cowlings? Right now, it doesn't look realistic without those small details.

Please let me know if these liveries can be made. Especially for Australia, those liveries would be nice to see since it would make flying smaller planes there more realistic instead of having to substitute a Qantas livery for a Turkish Airlines one, for example.
