Messing about with boats

[Captain Coffee 2,030]

Per Wind in the Willow, there is nothing quite so fun as messing about "in" boats...but this is a sim.

 

In Airhauler I have introduced shipping to my cargo/commodity hualing fleet. They are really slow. I mean Way tooo pokey to complete any missions or jobs over 1000 miles in the normal cargo time alloted...so no SanFrancisco to Hawaii Job hauling, but for short range commodity hauling...Priceless and Profitable. I only ever send them to Airports that are Portside...however, the Ai's don't know to stay in the harbor with often hilarious looking results:

 

 

And then there is just the fun of Messing with Boats :

 

Cheers.

Good stuff, Matt.  With P3D you could even use submarines.

That would be pretty cool!

 

AH has a 3 million pound MTOW for Ai's...so I had to adjust the freighter config for that...also getting pilots trained up to fly 3mil is a long process...so, this isn't quite as much of an Exploit as it seems

Still...I can haul 1.5 million pounds of commodities to my Emergency Supplies Factory. Busting out Emergency Housing at the moment in Moffet Field.

Great shots Matt, although I think the Truckers Union will be a bit miffed at being cut out of the loop.
