Just let me use my 3rd party aircraft I purchased TBH

that’s up to the 3rd party dev if they want to make their aircraft compatible with career
Some really good suggestions here to make career better. I know I saw at least a couple of these mentioned already, but just for good measure:
When announcing departure to passengers, it always states “flight from [departure airport] to [departure airport]
When announcing we’re at cruise, it gives the incorrect altitude & airspeed
Still getting overlapping ATC calls & replies
Why is there no rhyme or reason to how the aircraft are listed within each company?
Don’t have the company list (and aircraft list in each company) reset to the start each time you back out. If I’m doing maintenance on the 12th plane in my charter company, I shouldn’t have to count each plane to find the 13th, and so on.
More info on the aircraft pins. Is that PC-12 in my medevac, cargo, or VIP company?
When filtering missions by aircraft or mission type, only applicable pins should be shown. If I want to do a cargo PC-12 mission, I don’t care where my VIP vision jets are, etc.

Loading progress bar in missions. Sometimes when I start mission I simply don’t understand if FS decided to stop loading and waits for alt+F4 or I need to wait for 10 minutes more… or…?

In the career mode end of mission scorecard I would like to drill down in each category to see why I only got that score and what went wrong and where are the opportunities to get 100%?
Eg. Respect the condition of the aircraft 75% - it would be nice to see why 75% and where I went wrong to not get 100%. Was it brutal banking, airspeed, reckless flying in the conditions, brutal descent profile and non butter banging the aircraft down for landing
Currently in the aviator performance details its just a vanilla tab and the same for every mission it’s doesn’t really say alot about the mission just completed.

How about they introduce some more realistic spoken comments from the people onboard your aircraft and on the ground? AI could help with this. I’m sure I’m not the only one who finds the tone of the passengers on those sightseeing flights either vacuous, mildly sarcastic or even passive aggressive especially when you do something wrong!

The passenger banter is insulting in several regards:
- The language used is not realistic
- It tries too hard to add context
- It’s repetitive
- It can be demeaning, literally insulting
- It prompts pilots to defer to the whims of the passengers without regard to safety, etc, and there’s no way to tell them no. In fact, you get penalized and belittled if you don’t do the thing. Who is pilot in command, exactly?
- It occurs in phases of flight where it should not
- There’s no way to shut them up

World discovery flight locations should be available from the start for career. So that we can perform missions instead of flying nonsense
Totaly true, I’m so tired of the VIP winter edition, same destinations since 15 months

Please consider expanding career mode aircraft with ATR 72 - perfect for regional passenger routes; already present in MSFS 2024 and widely used as AI traffic.

The “Operational Manager” on the helicopter agricultural missions is the same. That person surely would be banned from these forums, for violating the Harassing or Defamatory Content part of the Rules of Conduct if they made the same kind of comments on my flying.
I muted the character voices long ago.

Post 3 for a quick request/suggestion.
IRL flights are normally structured around a bit of a base of operations. It would be nice in the game that the mission generator would also generate a mission profile that would effectively be a return flight. I go through phases where I like to do a few flights from a specific area… this fix would allow us to either expand our base and flight profiles or if we wish to return to the starting airport to pick up another flight.

I just need a Boeing 737 300, Beechcraft b1900D, 767 300/300ER, and dash 8 100/200 series for my cargo fleet in career mode so it’s a more realistic fleet

Access to my aircraft outside of missions.
For example if I want to do a few circuits to practice my landings without upsetting a passenger
To see how dirty it is (the first time currently you see the aircraft state is when you walk up to it to start removing chocks etc, by which time it’s too late to get it washed)
And most of all, so I can fly it to another airfield. Either just for my own benefit, or more likely to pick up a job without paying the “transfer” fee. Which is the most unrealistic part of the whole simulation.

3rd party aircraft is the top of the wishlist!!!
Here the current situation and reason why 3rd party are abandoning career mode in its current form.
“that question would be for MS as the career system is locked down to very specific frameworks that don’t allow the realism we have in the Accu-Sim simulations. This is why you find many study level simulations not career compatible but mostly just the relaxed realism default level products.
If MS where to open up the career system similar to how SCS runs the highly award winning Track Simulator career mode, we know most developers would happily include the ability to use it”
So Jorg and Team Asobo are you going to do it?

My wish for career mode:
Just like in real life, airlines should be able to purchase “slots” at airports in order to offer scheduled flights.
They should also have a home airport where they can get better maintenance and fuel prices, for example.
You should also be able to run your own airline together with friends, like a guild in an MMO.
That way, you can generate income together.
No more pursuer instructions while taxiing

Can we have cabin crew in airplane as well? Serving food, preparing cabin for take off, landing, cruising.
I doubt that will happen, they took out perfect cabins because they affected performance. Can yoou imagine how the trolly folk will degrade that? In career mode they would find a way to ding passenger satisfaction for sure. Not for me thanks.
