Added
- Browse and compare new and used aircraft with a visual dossier covering installed cabins and engines, maintenance records, entry costs, observed sale prices and suitability for your network.
- Aircraft keep their identity, usage, maintenance and ownership history through purchases and resale. Sales now use actual listings and buyer offers.
- Review new aircraft orders with signing payments, delivery funding and cancellation refunds. Aircraft loans show repayments and interest, while aircraft costs and depreciation remain traceable.
- Purchased used aircraft can automatically progress through preparation and delivery, with visible progress, physical handover and ferry stops before entering service.
Changed
- Aircraft inspections show installed equipment, completed cabin work and maintenance findings, with clearer service limits and runway performance information.
- Competitors operate acquired aircraft with their installed cabins and engines, and return withdrawn aircraft to the used market.
- Reduced unnecessary delivery planning when no suitable crew is available.
Fixed
- Maintenance recovery can use available spare aircraft, while crew reservations outside the affected recovery plan remain intact.
- Aircraft preparation shares hangar capacity correctly and respects the timing of maintenance, repainting and delivery. Repaint bookings check available cash.
- New aircraft purchases and their payment history survive saving and loading, and aircraft handovers and sale payments complete only once.
- Dismissed activity bulletins stay dismissed, stale Live Day warnings clear, and historical services no longer inflate aircraft pool usage.
- Fixed missed midnight processing during small time advances and repaired proven incorrect knock-on delay reputation penalties in affected saves.
