March 24, 20224 yr Everyone has their personal preference... I don't think they'll stop making them, both camps like and dislike them.
March 24, 20224 yr Yeah, I can see why it can be annoying. Some of the payware and freeware airports with static aircraft are just bypassed by AIG. You don't really see them until they start taxing. Then you wonder...why did that Hawaiian Airlines turn into a Spirit Airlines right next to me?!? No worries. I would prefer less static planes but it doesn't effect the sim experience overall. 7800+4090+64ram Just Flight RJ, 146 and F28, Piper Arrows ---A2A Aerostar and Comanche---Black Square Starship, Duke(s), TBM, Bonanza/BaronV2, KingAir---FSReborn FSR500---COWS Da42---FX P180, HJet & VJet---FlySimWare Chancellor and LearJet---FlightSimStudio EMB175 &P2006T---Fenix 320---PMDG DC6, 737(700+900), 777---C22J---Milviz Cessna 310 & Porter---SimWorksStudios Kodiak, PC12, Zenith & RV14---BigRadials Goose---IndiaFoxEcho MB3339+F35.
March 24, 20224 yr Nope. They need to stay, as I like them. Maybe have an option to reduce density. Vatsim users are a small group of users.

An option to turn them on/off would be the best. Myself I use PSXT so do not want any static AC.

March 24, 20224 yr Another vote to get rid of them. Options are better. 5800X3D, 4090FE, 64GB DDR4 3600C16, Gigabyte X570S MB, EVO 970 M.2's, Alienware 3821DW and 2 22" monitors, Corsair RM1000x PSU, 360MM MSI MEG, MFG Crosswind, T16000M Stick, Boeing TCA Yoke/Throttle, Skalarki MCDU and FCU, Logitech Radio Panel/Switch Panel, Spad.Next
March 24, 20224 yr an option to turn off or on is good idea but i guess that option would only work for direct sales as the marketplace doesnt allow 2 versions of one addon, so i guess it would come down to how many sales is from direct users vs marketplace/xbox, as having a option to turn on and turn off would mean exporting 2 versions of the addon = more work Edited March 24, 20224 yr by steve 86
March 24, 20224 yr Author I agree with someone earler who wrote museum static aircraft are fine and personally I dont mind static aircraft you see parked inside hangars. I dont use VATSIM every flight and even in my offline flying I would prefer no static aircraft. These days I dont buy airports with static aircraft. Vote eith my wallet 😃
March 24, 20224 yr I agree totally with this. I hate the statics but I guess some people like them. It should totally be an option. I like Xplane where you can nuke them in WED. There a few devs now that are providing the option to toggle them now but it seems airports that came out early on in MSFS' lifespan had statics baked in and devs now seem unwilling to remove them or unaware that it is possible in MSFS (a few Orbx airports, LVFR etc...) I have posted on some forums and discord channels asking for a toggle and some have said they will do it so I hope they stick to their word. Orbx seem to be the worst, they still drag their feet over it. I think the more of us that raise it with the devs, the more likely we are to get a choice and hopefully a toggle becomes the norm 🛫

E.g. based on feedback in this thread I made a separate static aircraft package, which augments the bare airport scenery. The approach does not work though, if the payware scenery ships with static aircraft from the beginning.
March 24, 20224 yr I would also like the option to turn them off but even more I would like to see developers do a little research and place them at the appropriate airline gate instead of scattering them all over the airport. Richard
