I've made a few suggestions in the past(OOOI data, load factor, etc), and I've got another that I'd love to see.
I'd like to see FSCaptain automatically detect and log time and fuel for off runway, TOC, TOD and landing If possible, I'd also like to see it log fuel and time for waypoints on a flight plan.
This would be useful for VAs tracking flights, as well as to improve fuel predictions.

;D
These are already in Dutch's Big List o'Things that Travis Whinges on About. (I think they're somewhere in Volume 2....)

Awesome!
Another small thing I'd like to suggest is late departures. I'd like to be able to start a flight after the scheduled departure time with a penalty, rather than having to adjust the sim time to do the flight, as I fly in real time.

Does that not - and not to flame or to be rude sir, - but defeat the object of running a scheduled service?
What if rather than run late we ask for the option for fscaptain to run to windows system time (and call it "zulu" Instead of fs Zulu? And thus your schedules match your / our personal requirements
I used to do the same many moons ago, but I got tired of flying at night.
Just a passing thought.

I agree with you. I don't change my sim time, I always fly at the real time. I'd like FSC to use real time not FS time.
The problem I'm talking about is, let's say I want to do a series of scheduled flights. If you get delayed on the way in, then you can't do the next one.

I'd like FSC to use real time not FS time. Sorry but it's late here and I may be mis-reading you... but are you suggesting that you'd like the option for FSC to score a departure time against your PC clock's time as opposed to the simulator's departure airport time? If I'm wrong, please pardon my confusion... it's been an odd day here.

Yes, because FSX has the wrong daylight savings time, which causes some trouble. But, I mentioned this on this forum a while ago, scheduling flights with Z time instead of local would be good too.
