ACARS and Aerosoft's Airbus X info
Posted: Wed Mar 18, 2015 1:33 am
It's not a big issue just info for those using Aerosoft's Airbus X (v1.21).
After you have succesfully landed at an airport and parked to a position, if you open the aircraft's doors, the passengers and the cargo gets automatically unloaded thus reducing the Zero Fuel Weight of the plane. Ending the flight/sending the pirep from ACARS afterwards, will lead to incorrect values being uploaded to our dispatch office, since some of them are based on the ZFW.
So if you want your pirep to contain the correct values, just send it before opening the aircraft's doors
