OnAir internal Mails
In this update we included enhanced mail capabilities.
It’s an internal mail system that runs in OnAir. There is no outside communication with real mail. Depending on the feedback, in the future, we will also introduce an option to send real mail in addition to OnAir mail for users who choose the option.
Shortcuts have been added in the navigation bar and at several places where the company codes are displayed to grant easy access to the feature.
In next update, we will also have a nicer user interface for the internal OnAir Chat. In the current version, it is activated with the ‘very’ small asterisk at the bottom left of the pages.
Airport Synchronization for the latest MSFS airport database
The airport’s database has been synchronized with the last MSFS database (Sim Update 15).
We synchronize the airports with the simulators databases and if there is any misplacement or error in the sims database, we also have it in OnAir Database.
If you detect such an issue in MSFS, post a ticket to ASOBO/Microsoft here:
