MSFS 2024 Career Mode – Medium Cargo Missions with No Suitable Aircraft or Destination Airfields

[AndrewFoley77]

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

In MSFS 2024 Career Mode, some Medium Cargo missions are generated with destination airfields that are clearly unsuitable for cargo aircraft operations, such as aeromodelling or ultralight-only fields, with extremely short or non-standard runways.

In these cases, the issue occurs before the flight even starts:
none of the aircraft available for purchase for Medium Cargo missions are suitable for operating from the assigned destination airfield.

As a result:

• the mission is offered by the Career Mode system,

• the destination airfield is fixed,

• but no viable aircraft can realistically land there,

• making the mission impossible to execute and effectively blocking progress.

This is not a piloting or planning issue, but a logical contradiction in mission generation, where aircraft category, runway characteristics, and mission type are not properly validated against each other.

Example of unsuitable destination:

• Google Maps link: https://maps.app.goo.gl/3H25WJBiDR3mrWXL8

• Type: Aeromodelling / ultralight field

• Issue: Extremely short strip, no infrastructure suitable for Medium Cargo aircraft

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you?

Intermittently, but frequently enough to be reproducible across multiple Medium Cargo missions in Career Mode.

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

1. Launch MSFS 2024

2. Enter Career Mode

3. Select a Medium Cargo mission

4. Review the assigned destination airfield

5. Open the aircraft purchase / selection screen

6. Observe that:

   • the destination is an aeromodelling or ultralight field, or has an extremely short runway

   • none of the available Medium Cargo aircraft are suitable for that airfield

7. Note that the mission cannot be reasonably started at all
