lionwing Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 How hard do you work your virtual fleet of aircraft? Do you keep turnaround times to a minimum? Do you keep aircraft flying until the airport closes? Do you schedule time for regular maintenance? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_bergman Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 How hard do you work your virtual fleet of aircraft? Do you keep turnaround times to a minimum? Do you keep aircraft flying until the airport closes? Do you schedule time for regular maintenance? Thank you. For a 29 seat aircraft, I have a 30 minute turn time. This is pretty standard for commuter flights which land, taxi, and are back to the hub. Generally, yes; the saying is that the aircraft is not making money unless the engines are running. No, most of my aircraft don't start until 7am and are done by 10pm thus allowing overnight maintenance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
