It’s almost been a year now and it still hasn’t been fixed. Can we expect a fix soon?
Nah, they're busy with the A350

This has been a problem for many airports around the world for a long long time. Never got fixed. But to be honest I’d rather like to see these problems fixed than flying a new A350. The terrain issue really reduce the realism of the sim. What’s worse, it makes many airports and runways not flyable. It’s funny that it is said that the developers think this problem is not important and has lower working priority. I have no idea what’s in their mind.
Plus the taxiway lights broken on most airports, and they never fix that

How much Nautical miles do you have done guys?
85363 km and 136 hours

The user interface on mobile just shows up or down and a single push of that button or any assigned gear button needs to toggle the gear between up and down to avoid any confusion. I could make it so that the gear lever can be clicked in the virtual cockpit to set the gear to the intermediate position. But even that might be confusing to some users.
Maybe the off position could be avalaible only on PC?
-
It is confusing to many customers, they expect the gear to come down when you use it and not go into some intermediate state. That's why the landing gear off position is not simulated.
But it's a simulator, right? There are far more complex things on the sim than the 737's landing gear being able to be on the off position

That would be cool, hopefully they do one day

Who told you that IPACS forgot to implement the 787-9 and 777-200ER
New aircraft families are just more requested than shorter versions of one aircraft
keep lying to yourself lol
this isn't true, especially with the 737-800 and the 787-9

Hey IPACS team, I keep seeing so many people requesting new planes and that’s fine but let’s get the easy ones out of the way first, and these planes are what majority of the community would actually enjoy and use very often.
I think I can speak on behalf of a lot of people when I say the A320 NEO versions are very missed in the Sim and I would love to see them added in the next update, especially considering it’s practically the same engine as the 737Max aircraft. If we could see that this year that would be epic!
Another option which shouldn’t be difficult is seeing the 737-8 in the sim this would be a huge and simple add on as the majority of us fly in Europe and having a Ryanair aircraft would add so many route options!
Anyway just making a suggestion that might help make the decision on what to update easier! I love the sim, for me these two aircraft’s would make a HUGE difference.
Thank you, god bless.That's what I think
Now that they're doing the A350 they'll probably forget about the 737-800, just like they forgot about the 787-9 and 777-200ER

We are living in a world where people don't have patience and understand the Dev's team are small not like msfs or x plane having big people to work on. Things take time to come.
And it really isn't about patience you know
I just don't want to wait multiple years for the devs to finally decide they are going to add the more popular variant (if ever)
The 787-10 is making it's way to be 3 years old and we still don't have any news about a 787-9, the devs just moved to the next aircraft and forgot about it. The whole excuse that they were adding the largest variant it's because it would take LESS time
(and that probably is going to happen with the A350 too)
-
What are you talking about lol, the reason that the devs add the largest variant is because they say it's going to be easier to scale it down to the shorter variant (although they never did that)
About the A380, it only has one variant, this isn't an example for the discussion
Nobody cares if the plane carries more or less passengers than the other, of if it's more fuel efficient or anything. This is about liveries, having more variety for flights, like, wouldn't you agree that having the 737-800 (THE most popular Boeing jet) on the simulator would greatly expand the available routes around the world? Adding the plane with the most liveries would be the option that best pleases the community
-
I think launching the -900 first is meaningless. I just like the A350 with 14 wheels. Do you think 1000 is not popular? I think it is popular. Both groups have different opinions, and there are sufficient reasons. So, is convincing the other party meaningful
The -900 certainly is more popular, and would benefit the simulator more
more liveries = more variety for flights
-
I'm curious, has IPACS promised anyone to add a shorter model within a specified number of years?
That's why adding the larger variant first doesn't make sense lol
We could've gotten a -800 instead of the -900, but nah, let's make the larger less popular one and never specify when or if we're ever going to add the more popular variant
This is most probably also going to happen with the A350, unfortunately
-
What would you rather have them do adding the same aircraft but just the shorter version or add new aircrafts first and then later add shorter versions
"Maybe they sould focus on adding the other variants before moving on to the next aircraft, since it's """easier"""? Just like I said, the 787-10 released 2.5 years ago and we still don't have any news about a 787-9"
If they are never going to add the shorter variant, then why add the larger one in the first place
-
Like, we still don't have any news about the 737-800 and the devs already moved on to the next aircraft (which should've been a priority, since it's the most popular airliner along with the A320), the same happened to the 787 and 777
It just doesn't make sense
-
Just being clear, I am very excited for the A350, no matter the variant that’s chosen.
But regarding the -900 vs -1000 debate, just consider the “benefit” we *could* receive for each variant. Obviously the -900 has more liveries and is more popular, which would enable a multitude of additional routes for those that care about realism.
The -1000 supposedly would be able to facilitate the development of the -900, but the question is how long it’ll take to return to this project.
If it does take years, then at that point just go with the -900 to maximize benefit for all users over the waiting period. And considering how much technology advances over the years (Aerofly FS Global is literally a perfect example), I would assume that it would gradually become easier to shift from the smaller aircraft (-900) to developing the larger aircraft (-1000), if this scenario happens.Completely agree! Getting the -1000 and having to wait years for any news about the -900 is just not worth it (the same goes for the 787-10 and the 737-900)
And it's not like making the larger variant based on a smaller one is impossible, they added the A321 afterall
-
Because they have other things that are more important on their list if they add larger variant first they can later make the larger variant shorter and make the shorter versions of the planes I'd rather them adding new planes instead of adding for example the 787-9 and then the 787-8 since it's basically the same plane but shorter which is why I think shorter versions should be saved for the future even tho id like the shorter versions too and they have more livery and route options compared to the larger versions and remember they are a small team meaning they can't just do everything at the same time they have stuff planned and I guess they also follow a schedule to make and release things
Maybe they sould focus on adding the other variants before moving on to the next aircraft, since it's """easier"""? Just like I said, the 787-10 released 2.5 years ago and we still don't have any news about a 787-9
If they aren't going to add the shorter variant, why do we even have the largest variant in the first place?
-
If making aircraft is so easy, you should send your CV to IPACs. You could accelerate developments, maybe even create live weather 😃
The excuse of adding the larger variant first is literally because it would be easier to make the other variants just by shrinking the existing larger one
Then why we still don't have any smaller variant?
-
Guys, do you play Aerofly for the liveries? Or maybe for the sake of realism and high-quality detail?
More liveries = more variety for flights
An A350-900 instead of a -1000 is still going to be realistic and high-quality
-
Well, to answer to your question.
It really depends on what Dev's think. If they think it's the right time to make a35k now, then cut the fuselage to a350-900.
Btw, what's the point if they either make a35k or a359? You are gonna anyways fly a Airbus a350 which, neither of other sims gave us, a proper one to fly. (Except, x plane with their FF with medium systems).
Only difference I spot on is, that the 350-1000 and 900 having gear, fuselage length and weight difference.. otherwise it's all the same. I don't see any differences in them.
To use a logic why do you care more about the airlines at first? Let them add the aircraft which we can fly with details at first. Then let them in the future updates add airlines as, they’re adding for the 777-300er recently.
A350-900 has waaaaay more operators, the -1000 only has like 5 operators, that really limits the number of flights we could do
The problem is that we never really got a shortened variant, like the 787-10 which is already 2.5 years old and the 777-300ER 4.5 years old
-
You never know they could cook up something different. Either way, I refuse for IPACS to disregarded the -1000 variant.
But if they need to disregard one variant, the -1000 should be the one, in my opinion
