Dead Men Walking FBO's

Sparko · February 26, 2015, 10:14:30 PM

OP updated,

We now have a 3rd FBO (1 slot at present) we need some more building supplies in order to build a passenger terminal to generate assignments.

There is also another slot available so we need another 10,000kg of building supplies to grab it before someone else does. Assignments have been created on the FSE client for these requirements.

Also there is no fuel at LFHY, it's on order but can take up to 3 days for it to be delivered so make sure you have enough on board to get out again until it arrives.

Lydd is open again, so no go there. But we need to keep an eye open in UK.

Edit; BTW, the fuel has arrived at LFHY

I can only find 4 assignments of 250kg each. That is 1000kg. Did you leave out a zero somewhere?

Inspired by Tunas Skyvector link I made a flightplan with our 3 FBO's to show them on the map

Passenger terminal is now up at LFHY.

Still need more building materials from LFLC to grab the next slot however our bank balance has taken a big hit so need to do some ferrying to build it back up again.

Passenger terminal setup

I have studied how we have set up our terminals and it seems not to be the best way to do it. What we have tried now is to get a spread on the passengers. (12 max per FBO, 6 on the 1 lot one).

What happens is that 12 passengers are generated. These can show up on the our FBO or on the connected FBO's. This gives us the possibility to be "seen" on several bigger FBO's and I was thinking that it was a positive thing, but with only one or two jobs at every FBO people will ignore it, and it will time out. No income for us.

At this time I think it is best to keep all generated passengers on our FBO's. This will give us a easier way to be able complete our generated jobs and get new ones quicker.

I am taking the liberty to set this up. If you have comments please chime in.

We also need to complete the assignments from the previous owner. Our jobs doesn't get generated until they time out or gets completed.

Hi Guys,

Shoud we rent a few gates in UK? That way we get to fly there and maybe it will be easier for us to find a FBO there.

Go to FBO, FBO Maps, Tick Gates for rent and Select UK and press Get Map.

Gates around Peterboroug (for our LAN Attendees) where 1500 a month.

I'll wait until you guys get back in the game then.

I think I'll just fly our FBO's in France, and maybe buy some more building materials for the LFHY base.
Just to get the some use out of the planes I leased.

vobler · March 10, 2015, 08:27:41 AM

I saw Tuna has done all the available jobs in France.
So I packed up a lot of building materials at LFLC for us to take to LFHY.
Will make empty return flight assignment too. So we don't have to pay the fuel our selves.

Managed to get on for an hour or so tonight, moved 1000kg of building materials to LFHY so we have 6000kg there now, should be able to get on for a few hours tomorrow night to help move the rest.
