Dear Sirs
I am writing to you as Operations Director of a VA. As a P3D user, I don't have the PMDG 777, although I will certainly do so as soon as it is available on the P3D platform. One of my pilots has come to me with an interesting question, and I thought I would put it to your good selves.
Regarding the passenger configuration (Per aircraft.cfg) of this aircraft. You show : // Weight && Balance Manual 2/3 Class station_load.0 = 1950.0, 49.77, 0.0, 4.9 station_name.0 = "First Class" station_load.1 = 6435.0, -0.32, 0.0, 4.9 station_name.1 = "Business Class" station_load.2 = 22815.0, -50.8, 0.0, 4.9 station_name.2 = "Economy Class"
Now these weights equate to a maximum, using a conservative 150lbs per passenger, of 13/43/152.
The airline we simulate offers a seat configuration of 35/34/249
As you can see, there is quite some difference here. Is there a simple explanation for this that I may have missed?
Many thanks
Steve Marks
