Build 110 brings spare parts for grounded aircraft (AOG).
When your aircraft breaks down
- Repairing right away still costs the same as before.
- At an airport without a workshop you can instead wait for a spare part and make the repair cheaper. Fleet shows "repair now" vs "wait for the part", including the deposit.
- The part orders itself, but only 30 minutes after grounding, so you can still repair right away and fly on. You can switch self-ordering off in Fleet.
- Once delivered, the aircraft repairs itself and flies again, even while you are offline.
Part jobs
- Another player brings the part: the job board shows an express job with a red "AOG part" tag and its own filter. AI crews and rotations cannot take it.
- The owner pays a deposit of at most 25 % of the repair price; the world pays the rest of the freight.
- Part kits for small aircraft are light (C172 about 110 kg), so even a Cessna carries them. Part jobs appear mostly around small airports.
- If nobody brings the part, an NPC delivers it after 48 h, or 24 h for a company without a human pilot. Waiting never costs more than repairing right away and never puts you in the red.
- Whoever holds a part job for at least 6 hours and lets it lapse gets it counted as an expired booking.
Aircraft already grounded stay as they are; you can order a part for them by hand. Everything is in the handbook in the new chapter "Parts and AOG".
