General information about the FTW aircraft fleet Which aircraft are used in FTW? Fly The World covers almost the entire range of civil aviation in its current expansion stage. The range of aircraft used is correspondingly large. In addition, there are transport orders from the military sector, which expands the spectrum to include corresponding cargo aircraft (e.g. C160 Transall, C-17 Globemaster or C130 Hercules). Military fighter jets, on the other hand, are not used at all, since they can c…

Details of assignments Now each assignment brings a number of properties and thus important information for the pilot. These are displayed clearly in the order list, divided into several columns. Most columns offer a sorting function (alphabetically or in ascending/descending order of value) when their title is clicked. The first three columns have no title and are almost self-explanatory. For the sake of completeness, however, they should be mentioned briefly.

Flying without orders: empty and transfer flights Sometimes it may be necessary to move an aircraft from A to B without orders. A typical example of this is transfers of new aircraft from the factory to the base. If no jobs are taken along, FTW first of all does not know where the journey should actually go. Therefore, the destination must be entered manually in YAACARS for an empty flight. After starting the flight in the FTW terminal, the flight data is requested via the corresponding button …

Airports in FTW In Fly The World there are about 25,000 airports. The airport administration strives to represent these as realistically as possible in FTW. The decisive factor is therefore whether an airport exists in reality, regardless of whether it is also included as scenery in the individual simulators. Pilots are therefore well advised to check whether their destination even exists in the simulator, especially in the case of small, rather unknown airports. In the airport details, corresp…

Ranks The rank of a pilot indicates on the one hand his flight experience and on the other hand the hours flown for airlines. The Company Hours (CH) are therefore decisive for the classification. It is therefore quite possible that a pilot who prefers to fly as a freelancer can accumulate hundreds of hours, but still not exceed the rank of Second Officer. If, on the other hand, he had completed these flight hours for one of his own airlines or the airline of a fellow player, he would have grad…
