Max PAX Explained
EHM-0188 Andy:
How did/do you all fill in the number of passengers on your PiReps ?
Do you fill in a random number or do you use a tool that calculates it ?
EHM-0240 Joe:
I think the way it used to work was if you used the online pirep form then you can put whatever you want, and if you didn't put anything then it was automatically set as the aircraft being 3 quarters full.
If you used the flight logger to submit the flight then when you select the aircraft you used, the number of passengers was automatically set to an amount somewhere between 2 thirds full and completely full.
Thats roughly how it happened anyway, the numbers probably aren't exact.
EHM-0188 Andy:
I used a randomize formula in MSExcel to calculate the number.
I just wanted to know if anyone used a certain tool.
Or is there someone that can make such a tool ?
EHM-0005 Maarten:
As Joe said, if you don't fill in anything in the PIREP form then it takes a random number. It takes around 80% of the aircraft's capacity if you leave the field empty.
EHM-0962 Zhen Yi:
Using a randomisation tool would not be very realistic unless you put a minimum cap on it......which i assume you did......for me i always fly with full load of passengers! :]
