Good day, everyone.
As we all know, DVA does its best to cater to all types of flight simmers, from the casual jump-in-and-go to the super-serious always-on-VATSIM, every-aspect-of-operations types. That's one of the things I love about us.
However...no matter how you wish to fly, you MUST perform some kind of fuel/passenger planning. You can use the fuel/passenger loader in ACARS if you want the easy way or you can load your aircraft yourself using your own calculations and doing it manually.
We have full Simbrief integration to make flight planning a breeze for all of us.
Operating your aircraft overwieght is dangerous and adversly affects the flight dynamics of the aircraft you are flying. All phases of flight from takeoff to landing become much more difficult. There's no reason you should be landing your aircraft vastly over Maximum Landing Weight.
ALSO...please ensure UNLIMITED FUEL is OFF in the sim you are using before flying.
Happy Flying!
