MAD AH2 - Company aircraft purchase!

I think you need to go to your personal info page and add new type rating. Almost guaranteed it’ll need one since that’s a taildragger.

Will try to not crash it when type rating assuming it has to be done with the company plane :sweat_smile:

There are sill no VA cargo jobs showing for me on p3d, are they appearing for those with xp11 now that the aircraft has been bought?

Cool. I have that one from your previous recommendation.

Exactly. It’s all bout “tingling our sense of adventure”!

I’m only seeing the one that you exported to the company (Wenatchee - W58)…

Posted in wrong thread. Moving…

Interesting. So if you reload AH2 - are you still showing in Shelton with cargo aboard?

No, the freight just vaporized during unloading and I received no credit for the job. The aircraft shows at my destination as it should, WN47. FYI for anyone flying there, it is not in the GTN750 database. I’m going to add a user waypoint.

Just FYI… It looks like you added fuel to ferry, not added it to your tanks. It’s showing in your cargo…

Right you are. It did add fuel to my tanks, but I must have taken the additional step for ferry fuel, which was unintended.

I still can’t figure out how to gain access to the new 172 Bush. If I go to my Personal Info menu and hit the Add New Type Rating button - it opens a menu, but the drop-down menu doesn’t populate with anything.

I’m asking about it on the AH Forum to see if I’m missing a step…

Nevermind…I found it. Virtual Airline - Fleet - Select plane and hit FLY it will ask you to take a type rating…

Edit: glad that you figured that one out.

I opened my new FBO at KMWH. I took a screenshot of a nice easter egg in the default 3D scenery there. But later realized that I it is a different keybind on my new X-P installation. So, no picture. I am deep in hock with this DC-3 lease so it is time to make some cash if the blue screens allow it.

Nice airport with tons of runway! 13,503’ - you must be eying an 747F in your future!

Interesting that in my company type ratings now, it looks like maybe it includes the default 172 as well as the Bush version…

I’m about to take our 172 on an inaugural flight - 416 lbs. of fruit from KEAT to S36… Wish me luck!

I think so, yes - you need to be where the plane is. This is all from memory a few years ago (AH2/P3D): take C172 to KABC. Take PA32 from KABC to KDEF. You are at KDEF so can’t fly the C172, cuzz u ain’t at KABC anymore.

Does it work from “Fleet” tab. There’s a Take TR button there. That’s how I always did it but it should work from any company | fleet menu. May be a bug.
[EDIT]: Un-regard, see you found it.

Sidebar | Reading some of this is reminding a little of the book on the Twin Beech Freight hauler book I mentioned before - bunch of dudes (and dudettes) just ‘wingin it’ to Get-er Dun.

I forgot…this Bush 172 doesn’t have a GPS in the default configuration. I think I had added the KLN-90B to my modified version. I rather like the thought of green needling it though…so lets see what happens. Gonna have to find a radial and distance for S36…
