I don't know if this has been addressed or not however, when you select say 1 major failure per month.. If you were to save your flight after every flight, will the random failure generator start again at 0 when you reload flight simulator?? Or will you have to keep flight simulator open for a full month?I am just curious, cause I like to do lots of flights (most of the time) and I would love to have a minor or major failure crop up maybe once a week or so..Thanks

that doesn't matter. It's not a timer function but a probability function :So let say you select "1 failure per hour" : That means that for EACH minute you fly, there is 1 chance/60 to get a failure.You select "1 failure per day" : that means that for each minute you fly, there is 1 chance/1440 (60*24) to get a failure. The result is thus that you will get ON THE AVERAGE 1 failure if you fly continuously for 24 hours. It's really a probability, so the words "ON THE AVERAGE" is important.Regards,

Thank you Laurent, I have been eager for this product since Bill Van Caulart brought it with him to Charityflight 2004 and let us fly it..Thanks for your answer..

There have been a lot of enhancements since then ;-)

Will the failures have an effect on perfomance if they are not addressed.For example, lets say you get a cargo fire and a few other failures. How much time do you have to put out a cargo fire versus an engine fire. what if you did not put out the cargo fire. Could the fire spread or destroy the plane? I am not expecting full graphics but a message saying aircraft destroyed.

Hi Erich,I suspect you'll be the first to know if your aircraft is destroyed, 'cause I doubt there'll be anything left to display a message on!:-)Frank

>Will the failures have an effect on perfomance if they are not addressed.If both engines fail... you will find that you can't climb (at least not without losing airspeed). :-)Cheers,Ian.P.S. I make a bad beta tester... My instinct for self preservation kicks in and I try to not to ignore the warnings.
