One quick question. I noticed now that on my flight reports, there is information about the number of passengers and percentage I carried during that flight. How is this number calculated?

Thanks

If you're using Acars v3, you can adjust the pax load when starting flight before you calculate fuel.

With that said, I'm not sure how the actual number of pax booked is calculated.

That number is the percentage fill of your plane. so if your plane can carry 100 passengers, and there are 50 passengers on the plane, then it would be 50.00% percent. it goes to 2 decimals. also, V3 is available for FS9 from the fleet library.

Right, but I mean, in ACARS V2, all of my legs have a passenger information when submitted, my question is, how is it calculated? according to payload registered by ACARS VS the mas allowable payload for the aircraf that DVA has iin its database?

Up until today, I didnt know there was a v3 of acars where you can calculate the number of pax....

ACARS 3 is in beta. You can load as many pax as are currently booked, bug I really don't know how that booking information is calculated.

iirc, the passenger count is randomly determined if you do not set it manually in ACARS2 or 3.

Cheers!
