Improve Aircraft Availability Visibility

Hello,

In the list of our active assets, a green dot currently indicates that the aircraft asset has been activated and is ready to be used, but it does not necessarily mean the aircraft is available for a flight.

Would it be possible to add an additional visual indicator to quickly see whether the aircraft is immediately available or still in ground operations?
For example:

:white_check_mark: Active and available
:orange_circle: Active but unavailable (operation in progress)

Ideally, a countdown timer (similar to the one shown in the “Ground Operations” window) could also appear when hovering over the element with the mouse, to easily check the remaining time before the aircraft becomes available.

Since the aircraft rental system was introduced, it’s not always easy to keep track of the exact status of each aircraft. To plan a flight, I currently have to click through each card one by one to check availability, which quickly becomes tedious.

Thanks in advance for your feedback, and once again, great job on the platform!

Regarding the aircraft availability visibility, can we have a visual mark (icon, or color) on SimFly’s map that which airports are already owned by player?

Aircraft availability or airports owned, visual reference? Or both?

Ok.. can you just give me a brief example? I was looking at the image with the two red “x” and circles on the airport bomus tab. What kind of mark you think will be useful? Sorry, but trying to "visualize " you suggestions.

Oh, that’s just example, it can be any indicated icon. Say, when hover a mouse or click at the airport owner (in the red circle), then it shows something on the map where that airport is located. There are hundreds of airports, indicating its location when clicking at the name would be very helpful.

Ok.. so more or less, as it happens if i write down on the top the name of airport I see on the list. It shows the country. It could be nice you say if as the mouse moves on one of the icao of the airport, the map mooves as it happens if i write down the icao when in the other search, or as you suggest , a mark when you move on top.. it could be nice indeed. In my case , fir now, i just write down the icao, as in the picture.

I found it, can use map’s filter to show only player’s own airports.

Yes. I do it too. I select player owned airports.
