OnAir Company Guide - Part 5: FBOs and Logistic Queries

OnAir Company is a career mode add-on for Microsoft Flight Simulator, X-Plane, and Prepar3d that I love using. This is the fifth video in an ongoing series where I show you how to build your virtual airline company. In this video, we'll learn about FBOs (Fixed-Based Operators), why you may want to build them, and what Logistic Queries are.

Thanks, Kip. Was waiting for this video before you stopped for your long break.

[@a7c12gaming]

Good to see you back Kip 🙏🏾

The cargo is for, well, cargo. I don't know if it applies to charter cargo (IE staging at a hub) but with Industries cargo you get charged for that cargo to be stored at the airport unless you put it in an FBO. For example I was charged 1,152c to store 800lbs of cargo at O80 last night.

You don't need 4 points to get Last Minute Jobs. You only need 2 points. You don't need to fill up the previous level, just need a single point.

[@JohnVanderbeck]

I'm a bit confused during your intro... FBOs are not required for regular routes, and AI can certainly fly them if you are on a server that allows AI.

[@KipOnTheGround]

Ahh, good call out. I might need to redo this video. This was actually recorded the end of last year, and I finally got back from a long break and dug up the old recordings and published it. Looks like a ton changed about regular routes in June, including opening up to AI: www.onair.company/regular-routes-overhaul-and-opening-to-ai-pilots/

[@JohnVanderbeck]

@@KipOnTheGroundm Ah yeah that would explain it. I even checked the date on this video to make sure it wasn't old, but of course I couldn't know you actually made it last year lol
