Airbus A400M used in AH anyone?

[Capt Mcg 0]

Is anyone using the A400M in Air Hauler? I ran into a problem. I noticed you can go into the load manager and select the cargo amount, vehicle amount you want by tonne/tons. I am running a livery with one car on it. In order to run more cargo, do I need to list no car(S)? Or do I list two cars and just use the weight of the cars as the cargo I can load? I would think that if I have two cars in it, it would deduct this from the MTOW and that is the little if no amount of cargo I could add.

IE: if I list no cars as the livery, then would I be able to max out in AH cargo? Kind of confusing. Guess I could try them all, but I would loose so much money in switching ACs by selling and buying in AH. Trying to avoid that. I checked the manual and it's not too clear.

Thanks in advance. PS/ trying to keep from going over to JF to check the forums there.

UPDATE: I found the posts here on the A400M. Seems to deal with load of cargo and weights. I get the Message about the MTOW. Just wanted to know about the cargo manager.

Hi Capt

I have the A400M but hasn't really used it in AH yet.

But to your question on the cargo manager. I don't think it really matters in AH, but it's only a guess.

My logic behind this is that the cargo manager tells FS what values to put for cargo weight if you run a Free Flight with the plane. But when loading an AH flight this is all set by AH. But as I said, it's only a guess.

I'm pretty sure Dree used it in testing early on. You might PM him on the AH tester's forum.
