Pmdg747 pax

[Petr Sach]

Hi I have flown few times 747 pmdg for air-child , but every time I go into Flight Briefing suggested pax number only goes up to 375 and I know 747 have about 425 or close is there anything I am missing to load more people . Also I usually take 180 lb. Per pax should include baggage and the payload . I know that breathing gives baggage but into fs build goes only payload . So I would like to know if 180lb per/ pax is enough and if I can load more the 375 pax in Flight Briefing . Thank you petr

Yes, that's true, Petr. As with most airliners, you can have different configurations for the cabin setup. I think 440 is about the max you can squeeze in a 747 which makes it feel packed like a can of sardines
As we are a "first class" airline (lol) we opted for a 375 seat configuration, so people are more comfortable. For the luggage we currently use a fixed weight of 25 kg per pax (15 kg for prop aircraft), which equals to about 55 lbs, if I'm right.
