I was wondering if FsPassengers will be alright to run while flying with DVACARS. I have recently purchased the FS2004 version from flightsimstore.com

I have the Delta Airlines voice pack installed.

For those who want to fly with FSPassengers and DVACARS:
I cannot do FS Passengers career mode doing DVACARS flights, because I am not cleared to fly Cessna's props for DVA nor do I know of any flights with Cessna props. Career mode requires starting with small planes with a very low budget. For VA flights in airliners one must start with $300 million. If you want to fly Cessna props it is better to create another company in career mode outside of DeltaVA operations. Just manage your flightsim time wisely lol.

Flight time management in FSPassengers.
Best way to manage flight time in FSPassengers during Fall/Winter seasons when the Jetstream is prevalent over the country add 40-45 minutes to total trip time including taxi time with head winds. East bound flights manage around 20-25 minutes extra with tail winds. If you plan on holding times add the total amount of holding time in advance. IF to early or to late FSPassengers will chew you out LOL! My proof is in the flight report posted with this line "Precise arrival time at destination.(00h04:08 difference) (+100)"
