Flight Numbers

[BarryTheAviator]

"How should flight numbers be entered in FSACARS, as an example say the published flight number is PO411 should this be entered in FSACARS as :- PO411 SY411 or SYPO411 Not exactly an earth shattering issue but would like to get it right."

"If it is a Polar Air Flight it is PO411 If you are flying an Atlas Charter and the number happens to be the same last 3 digits, you enter 5Y411 Choosing a Polar in FSACars automatically sets up the flight with PO and PAC in the correct fields. Just adding the 411 to the end of it completes everything."

The reason I asked is that I when I select Polar Air when FSACAR starts up it automotically puts the ""5Y"" at the beginning - which is the code for Atlas Charter. <!--emo&:huh:-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> This would appear to be a minor error in the PAC.ini file - I have changed my version to default to ""PO"" for Polar Air. May be worth checking the download kit for FSACARS. Bottle of Snake Oil on its way up! <!--emo&:P-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]<!--endemo-->"

"I had the same problem from the original download, 5Y was in the PAC.ini file, simple to change but not everyone will notice it. Justin"
