September 8, 20241 yr When enterting the number of PAX in the PMDG 777, it shows 12 First Class 42 Business Class 316 Economy Class I’m confused about this, as it doesn’t match up with reality as far as I can tell. By my count there is: 40 First Class 24 Business Class the rest economy Anyone have any more info on this discrepancy?
September 8, 20241 yr Seating is airline specific. This will give you an idea. In the PMDG it doesn't really matter as the aircraft is just interested in the ZFW. How pax and cargo are allocated makes no difference at all.

How pax and cargo are allocated makes no difference at all. turns out it's kind of a bug. because it is just leftover code from when they ported it from p3d and the cabin did indeed have this layout. they did not update the FMS to reflect the actual seating arrangements in MSFS2020, which is surprisng since this was one of the first things I noticed when firing up the trip 7 for the first time
September 9, 20241 yr 40 first class seats?? Christopher Low AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU / 64GB DDR5-6000 RAM / 12GB Nvidia RTX 4070 Super GPU / Gigabyte X870E Aorus Elite Wifi 7 / 1+2TB Samsung Evo Plus M2 Nvme UK2000 Beta Tester

Edit: After seeing the OP also posted this same thing in the MS forums, he CLEARLY has 1st class confused with business class, as planes that only have Economy/Premium Economy and what is clearly a Business Class are being shown. This confusion also make sense, since there is never more of a higher class than of a lower class afaik. Edited September 9, 20241 yr by Mgard78
