This is why it's important to land at JET runways if you are able to, meaning that the MAIN/SIDE runways are available for heavier planes to land.Ĭertain aircraft are locked behind companies.Īs you fly, you may see aircraft that you are not able to purchase. Bigger aircraft's speed, wingspan, and stopping distance increase, meaning they are unable to land on JET runways. As you fly you will most likely see in the chat that a plane has requested takeoff or land. When you are new to Airline Piloting, you will start out in a light aircraft. SIDE is the same as MAIN despite location and name, used for when airport traffic is heavy and Pilots need an alternate runway to land at. The second runway is MAIN, this is a large runway that can accommodate both Heavy and Light aircraft and is usually the player's first choice. When new to airline piloting, please ensure you use these runways (when available) as to not inconvenience larger aircraft such as an A330. Usually, these runways have far less wingspan accommodation and running length. As implied by the name, this runway is for small aircraft. Learn to use these appropriately and many players will thank you for it. At airports, there are 3 types of Runway: MAIN, JET, and SIDE. Consider your current Bearing, Plane, and Distance. When you approach your destination airport, think of which runway best suits you. If it has, you will have a few seconds to initiate takeoff.ĪTC on landing is a very similar concept. (If you are unsure which runway is which, refer to the airport runway maps below.) Double-check if the runway has changed to a green color. Check if the runway is clear (yellow color on map), and then request takeoff before entering the runway. The closest airport will be marked with a green ribbon. Press the TAB key to open up the ATC menu, you will see a list of airports, select the one you are at. To use the ATC system in-game, you will need to be in a plane. The reason this is so important is to avoid air traffic collisions. Our ATC system is primarily used for landing and taking off on runways. ATC, like used in the real world, is used in TT to alert other pilots of everyone else's surroundings. Here we will discuss what ATC is, why it is important, and how to operate. Unlocked the Airbus A330 (also needs Cargo Pilot lvl 80)ĪTC is a big part of both Airline and Cargo piloting. Unlocked the Boeing 787-8 (also needs Cargo Pilot lvl 50) Unlocked the Boeing 737-200 (also needs Cargo Pilot lvl 20) After your passengers have been deboarded successfully, you will be rewarded with money and EXP Tokens, it will then automatically board new passengers that need to be transported to another airport. Fly to that airport (remember to use ATC) and deboard your passengers at the marked gate. After all the passengers have boarded you will now see a lighter terminal icon.Make sure to not drift outside of the boarding zone or you will be punished with a 10-minute cooldown. At the terminal, you will be prompted to press "E" to let your passengers board the plane. Once you have bought your plane, spawn it at the Aircraft Garage and taxi to a terminal.There is also /code starter that will give you 150K upon use. The cheapest plane is $20K, if you need more money, temporarily do another job such as Firefighter or visit the Fountain of Wealth. To buy your first plane you will need to visit the LSIA Aircraft Dealership, located on the north-western side of the airport behind the Los Santos Customs.To begin this job, as with most other jobs, you need to visit a Job Center or have the appropriate job card and change your job to Airline Pilot.Failure to follow ATC can result in punishment leading up to bans. When the A5 entered production, it became the first conventional production aircraft that is spin-resistant as measured by the standards defined by the FAA.ATC is mandatory, make sure to fully read this guide before flying. Spin resistance has been an elusive goal for aircraft manufacturers for decades. Unintentional spin entries are especially unforgiving at low altitude where sport flying tends to occur, so ICON chose to make the A5 spin-resistant rather than spin-recoverable. It is a dramatic safety advancement that can significantly reduce accidents from stall/spins, which are the leading cause of pilot-related fatal accidents in general aviation (the cause of 41% of pilot-related fatal accidents according to the AOPA Air Safety Institute’s 2010 Nall Report).Ī spin is a dangerous combination of a stall and yaw that results in a very high descent rate. Spin resistance is a design feature of an airframe that reduces the aircraft’s tendency to spin when it encounters the conditions that would typically cause a light aircraft to enter a spin (a simultaneous combination of yaw and stall).
