I have a couple of topics for you to visit and vote if you’re interested
The aircraft and livery selection is oversized. The pictures don’t need to be as large as they are and it is a struggle looking though all the aircraft, even just the default as I only have 1 extra aircraft. I can’t imagine once people start adding aircraft and liveries in the future.
All I am asking is for a scalable user interface on these two areas. Maybe even adding a detailed list view with a small picture. I think the Asobo team could really come up with a good solution to this, as this p…
When selecting aircraft for a flight we currently have filter categories for prop, turboprop, jets, and airliners.
I’d really like the ability to save specific aircraft to a favorites filter list to make them easier to locate. This would be even handier in future as we accumulate more and more planes in our collection.
When I put in the tail number, it works for that flight only. I’d like it to work always, saving that setting to the aircraft configuration file and loaded next time I choose that aircraft. Same with the livery, when there are more than one, reselecting that same livery that was chosen the last time the aircraft was chosen. In fact, any configuration change made during the aircraft selection GUI should be retained for the next load of that aircraft.
Just a note I have filled a Zendesk report as well. Could we have a search or filter feature in the liveries menu to search for an airline name? I have the mega livery pack installed and trying to find a liverie in the menu takes forever scrolling through them all. A simple feature where we can type a company name would really helpful.
Thanks
It would be great to have an aircraft management page, similar to the control assignments management page. This would allow you to change the tab under which a particular aircraft appears (i.e propellers, turboprops, airliners etc)
It could also allow you to make new categories, Modern military, WWII etc.
Looking at the aircraft selection page at the moment it looks like there is an intention to do this eventually, there is room for more tabs to be added.
What do you think?
Tail Number: Save it aircraft related. (i.e. for GER a c152 requires D-E…, a CJ4 requires D-C…)
Flight Number: Save it aircraft related. People have their (real life) flights in mind.

Can you add a new menu for submodels?
There are quite a number of aircraft with minimal differences between them. It would be good if you select DA40, and then in the next menu choose what submodel you want. This would make the list less cluttered.
Bonus points if we can rearrange the models ourselves. I can see it becoming messy again if I buy the A319 from one dev and the A320 from another. I want to be able to categorize and adjust tags myself.
I guess a couple of these improvements will get you closer to what you want.
But I wouldn’t hold my breath. I don’t think they fullfilled any UI wish so far, and the amount of UI changes since launch has been very limited.
Either they don’t have a UI team (not a single dedicated UI dev? ) or for some reason they need to redo a lot of the UI for the Xbox release.
