No profit in regional flights. Need tips

[FlyMaker]

The fuel burn for some aircrafts is so high. ATR 72-500 burn aprox 762 kg/h, in game this burn is more than 1500kg/hr

Another interesting point is - distant routes burn less fuel/mile

ATR 72 flying 1000mi burn 104 kg/hr less than 200mi routes

Some interesting links to read:

Please take a look at ASM-ADD, FNA-CKY- this two routes from real life.;Thank you.

ADD had incorrect statistics - passengers was raised from 7,000,000 to 12,000,000. This should help.

The other route, it is very short and the game decreases demand for flights less than 100 mi. I can't even find if this route is flown in real life expect for an air france flight that is likely part of a 5th freedom.

I can look into potentially increasing demand for regional routes once we reset. Just need to make sure it makes sense across the board.

ATR 72-600 fuel usage has been updated to 1.69
ATR 42-500/600 fuel usage has been updated to 1.76

The way the game calculates fuel consumption for aircraft is fuel capacity (US Gal) divided by maximum range. (this is why we need to make sure the range stored in the system is max range at MTOW)
