SimBrief: Saved Airframe

[Rodeo]

 

Note: this is already integrated directly on Simbrief (see above) so the link below now only exists as a backup.

Note: aircraft name is clipped to 12 characters for custom airframes, sadly (limit does not apply to default profiles). Fixed by SimBrief

Based on the already-accurate default CL60, with the following adjustments:

• equipment codes and extra flight plan remarks kindly provided by Graeme_77 here: 
• OEW/BOW updated to match the Hot Start airframe without passengers (12,315 -> 12,556kg, includes two pilots)
• passenger weights updated to somewhat more closely match the randomized weights as simulated,
  going with 74+15kg so you can still carry 5 passengers+luggage and full fuel at MTOW
  if you are flying Kim Dotcom around (supposedly ~141kg or thereabouts), sorry, you
  will have to make adjustments, or just count him as two passengers
  see below for more information:

Don't forget to add extra crew (anything above the two included in OEW) as passengers when planning your flight!

Cheers,

Tim

I've made some tweaks to the Simbrief-integrated profile for the Hot Start Challenger:

• switched backend weights to pounds for greater granularity
  • MLW in pounds is no longer rounded to 37,999 instead of 38,000 lbs
  • airframe still works with either unit just like before
• tweaked passenger weight to 165 lbs (~74-75 kgs) with 30 lbs (~13-14 kgs) per bag
  • still allows for 5 passengers, full fuel just below MTOW (w/default taxi fuel)
• added a default Mode-S Code
  • required for successful CFMU validation when aircraft is J1-equipped
• changed default airframe registration from N650HS to N650CL following feedback by Pilsner on Discord
  • it looked like it didn't take at first, but appears to have propagated to wherever it needed to now, as far as I can tell
• added a default fin number (6050)
  • apparently the first Challenger 650 was MSN 6050; thanks, Pilsner
