Yeah I was planning on letting players do the checks before they were due if they wanted to. Depending on the check you perform it would reset the clock. D checks are only what, like every 10 years?
And charging money for changing the cabin layout is something I need to add as well. Just need to come up with a formula to figure out the cost depending on plane size, seat types etc (first class seats are more expensive than economy seats). I also need to edit the used market to have used planes generated with various cabin layouts, currently it's all pure economy.
D checks happen roughly every 6 years and take 2 months to complete hence airlines schedule them years in advance.
C checks every 2 years takes about 1-2 weeks
B check 6-8 months 1-3 days
A check 400-600 hours 200-300 cycles and takes about 10 hours
Above according to lovely wikipedia

Question now is how are you going to translate this to the game in a way that keeps it fun
