Idk if it’s been requested prior to this post, but, is there a way to integrate more pilot names in flight release paperwork to simulate 3/4 pilot operations? A little weird to see just 2 pilot names for Long/Ultra Long Haul flights lol.

Not sure if relevant, but at my previous operator (747F) we had quite often augmented (3) or double (4) crews, but the OFP only listed the most senior CPT and FO. So only two were listed with names, regardless of the amount of crew in said day
Understood. Guess it could be based on operator policy on how & what information they generate on the releases. At my current operator (767), we typically list all operational pilots on the release.
now what would be cool is a crew list on a seperate sheet that comes with the OFP and weather. If you look in the XML you will see that simbiref generates a crew however its 2 pilots, 4 FAs. so, they would need to add a section
Crew:
Pilots → dropdown → 2, 3, 4
FAs → dropdown → 1,2,3,4,..16,17,18 (due to the type of aircraft youre flying)
the one thing they would need to also add is weight for the selections or else its just a gimic
I could go for that as well. Just feel like only having 2 pilots listed is limited “immersion” for augmented ops.
