fields for weights that should be added and how they should be sent to simbrief?

Open avs-code opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

I don't know how simbrief api work I found some links about Aircraft integration.

Integration - AC Data? {"mtow":171.961,"mlw":145.505,"mzfw":137.789,"oew":96.518}

Possible aircraft/layout options

The SimBrief API

mtow, mlw, mzfw would be probably same for a type (unless you want to reduce the certified weights) but having oew (operational empty weight) or dow (dry operating weight) would be nice ... By having these values we can produce more realistic flight plans with simbrief integration (at least the weights in the ofp will match the aircraft we use in the sim when configured correctly of course)

Anyway, MTOW is necessary because airports charge taxes with this parameter.

Also most of the time countries charge airspace usage fees according to mtow. So in feature versions maybe we can define Airport and/or ATC Charge expenses in phpvms by weight (as rw) who knows ;)

That would be ideal, tax per airport based in mtow/parking lot time/passengers... etc
