ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

I’ve seen many posts about the missions disappearing, which has been logged as fixed. Unfortunately, I dont think it has completely been resolved.

Over the last few days I’ve had 0 fire fighting missions (despite having the correct requirements).

This activity is mainly all I do and I’ve flown them multiple times per day previously.

The only fire fighting mission available to me is the extended version which I dont have the requirements for (because I cannot find the initial attack missions in order to do so)

How many areas do you have unlocked in southern regions?

Like Africa, Southern USA, The hot spots.

The number of fire missions is pretty low, but the wider the area you have unlocked in these southern areas, the more missions you tend to see.

[SK3158]

Honestly, nearly none. I have parts of Nevada, California, the UK and some pacific islands.

To be honest, I’m not even sure how you unlock them. I’ve had the same areas listed above since November.

The areas around California used to have about 3 missions available pretty consistently until this weekend. I did almost all of my flying on these missions and I havent found a single one over the last few days.

[Shroominkid]

you can take the unrealistic route and fast travel to places - or you can fly to places that arent unlocked by going outside your boundary circle on a mission.

I prefer to do it the realist way possible and do the second option as Id like to make it a goal to fly the entire world.

Start flying some more southern missions and get more areas unlocked, you should see them then start to pop up more often

I had a quick look at it is true that I did not saw initial fireflighting missions available to me inside continental US.

But there is some in Brasil (on SSCK), one in Kenya (HKTG) and a lot in south east Australia (for exemple: YGRL)

[Rantanplans]

Yeah, it seems in South America are a bunch of these missioins available, but it will take you a while to unlock. Considereing how “spotty” my map is, there should be plenty more…

[Shroominkid]

I have several in Australia also. there is occasionally one in southern California for me also, haven’t been able to catch one on the east coast of the USA yet
