Air Hauler 2 Tutorial #4 - Missions / Adhoc Flights / Commodities | X-Plane 11 (& FSX / P3D)

Great Video. I know this video is a few years old but I have been using it as my training videos for MS Flight version since I just got the program a few weeks ago and these are the best videos out there. I hoping you can answer a question. What is the best setup when it comes to Class for seats. Should I do first, second or just all economy. I am starting with a Cessna 208 and I know it is only 8 or 9 seats but I didn't know if I need to try and make it all first class. Does it matter?

Hey, firstly thanks for watching, glad to see they are providing value. That's a good question and really it comes down to trial and error. You can try a configuration and see whether you are able to sell out all the seats. You should be able to sell those premium seats for more but obviously they need to sell in order to exceed the profit made from economy seating configurations.

I never realised you could buy and sell materials, i often would fly back from a cargo job and do an ad hoc pssenger flight so will definitely give this a try. Great video.

Thanks for watching - good luck buying and selling!

When you get AI pilots, you can send them to the airport to pick up (AI move) and then when it lands, go to commodities, select the items fill direct to the hold (press max) and then get them to fly to the airport that gives the best price using parts finder page and commodities (I make 50 million with a fleet of 7 A320 Airbus's), but the downside is that you don't get rep. Limited stock, so focus on distance for the best return. You need the money to buy the goods, best route I have is LEPA-LEIB selling meds, 90 miles trip 1.3 mill a trip.

Thank you, very instructive.

I started a company in my home country (South Africa), but I can hardly find any commodities in that locality. The only airports stocking up on them is Cape Town. Do you perhaps know if it's possible to have more commodities become available near my home base?

[@KiwiMace]

Hey, it really depends on the size of the airport. Commodities won't suddenly become available if they aren't already at a particular airport. You may have to change the location of your base to get access to more commodities. Thanks for watching :)

How do you set the path once you have Air Hauler to x-plane 11 please. Mike.

[@itheseacow7590]

as in after you've created your company?

[@michaelrhodes6033]

Yes Kiwi Max said there was a box when you start to set it up.

[@friendlygiant2502]

Do you recommend this software for a more immersive experience and adding meaning to sim flights? am considering getting it

[@KiwiMace]

Hey, personally yes I do enjoy having addons to give a little bit more meaning but really it's an individual choice on what you enjoy. Thanks for watching :0

why cant we have many misisons available for XP like that were for FSX??

[@caerleon9176]

Low income from these, this game is focused on hauling cargo for profits. Slopey wrote it that way. The way to make a mountain of cash is after you get AI and plenty of large cargo aircraft, do commodities it takes time to search the best item, shorted route (for max capacity) and a return load if possible. Route I have done today is LEPA-LEIB with a A320 cargo (32tons) and sold Meds for £1.2M profit, AI can do it better, but it is faff.

My question is...Are these REAL WORLD PRICES?
