This Tool indeed needs to be rewritten completely -> Thank you for your hard work doing this.
I do not like to say it: In it's actual state it's extremely laggy, slow, buggy and unreliable or doesn't even work at all. Removed it for now.
LukeC88 7 day(s) ago
A full rewrite has fixed the issues (laggy, slow, buggy etc). At the moment I have been diagnosed with aneurysm, so the development has slowed down as I am the only one creating this.
snowrider349 2 day(s) ago
I'm sorry to hear that. Get well soon!

i got same issue
LukeC88 7 day(s) ago
Not sure where you bought the app from as its free. For this issue, simply go into settings > map and change the region. Thats it. Unless if you're getting this error in flight setup, this could mean that we do not have that icao. Please get in touch if you have issues with the app. I do not monitor comments here.
wil8190 6 day(s) ago

I'm having some problems with this app, people are boarding in a few seconds when i already have it set to 5 seconds. And it also keeps saying the ladies and gentlemen, the captain has turned off the seatbelt signs. This keeps happening everytime as soon as i rotate in the sky! I never had this problem and would like to know if this is a bug in the latest update.
LukeC88 2 month(s) ago
Could you get in touch with me via discord?
Regarding passenger boarding, you simply turned on Instaboard... which instantly boards all your passengers.

This could be a good tool, but after 5 days struggling with "You are not on departure airport" I'm simply annoyed. Also, the sound (Captain and Crew) is meh.
LukeC88 2 month(s) ago
The simple issue here is that you probably didnt setup the map correctly to read your coordinates. Also if you have used simbrief, some users for some weird reason are getting this issue.
AirTool is getting a full rewrite as well... so these bugs will be gone. Feel free to contact me via discord as its user isolated issue. Currently AirTool has around 5000 flights per week.
Artox67 2 month(s) ago
Hi Luke, Thank you for your response. if the rewrite is finally done, I'm more than happy to test again and of course to change my rating.
Meesh42
Has a lot of potential, but I'm stuck on updating to the latest edition (2.7.8.3) it says extracting, but does aboslutely nothing making it not useable
LukeC88 2 month(s) ago
this could have number of issues with user end stuff. Antivirus, ISP etc... You can simply manually download the latest version by going to https://lukeairtool.net and clicking on download. Extract the files to overwrite files on your PC

Any chance this will work in VR in the future?
LukeC88 2 month(s) ago
I am rewriting AirTool from the ground up. VR is for things to add in this rewrite.

Update: Now its working - all because win media player missing in my OS 😁
it doesn't work for me. I have the latest version 2.7.7.0 but the program says that I have an outdated one 😞 there is also some error "critical error with media player detection". When I want to see what it is, the screen appears:

Please check the requirements for LukeAirTool. You are missing Windows Media Player from your Windows. This is where the error is. It even tells you in the error message. "Critical Error with media player detection" means that you do not currently have windows media player installed on your PC which is required by LukeAirTool.
To reinstall windows media player open CMD in admin and paste this code in
Dism /Online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:WindowsMediaPlayer /All
Next time please use our support page or discord as I do not look at these comments every day

All this problems because WMP 😊
Well now its working 😊 Thanks Luk 😊
Btw. I wrote on the support page, few times but no recive conf @ 😞
Thanks again
MannyFS2020
If you get any framework.net exception errors delete everything in your local appdata folders airtool, airtool_Launcher and lukeairtool_LTD - relaunch and you will need to login again and everything will work again. just FYI 😊
karpiu 2 month(s) ago
it doesn't work for me. after deleting the files, the login menu appears, after logging in the problem returns 😞
LukeC88 2 month(s) ago
This should be fixed in the latest update. Deleting Local Data/AirTool folder does fix the issue but this should now work when logging out in the latest version.

Great product. But I have a little problem. For 2 weeks, passengers boarded in 1 time, or 1 second. I can't slow down. Is there a solution to my problem?
LukeC88 2 month(s) ago
Go into settings > main app and adjust it. Or simply use Instaboard in flight setup to instantly board passengers.

Getting this on launch now was working fine yesterday not changed anything! HELP!

I fixed it this - dont know what the cause was buit i deleted everything in my USERS appdata local folder (airtool and lukeair folders) and relaunched the app and voila!!!! working no more exception errors / .netframework errors - WOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!!
LukeC88 2 month(s) ago
glad you sorted it. It was something I must have done with the newer version generating settings file so all settings are cross version compatible
MaverickUSN316
Just a heads up , it seems like you cant utilize custom key 10 and 11 after setting up your custom announcement package.
LukeC88 2 month(s) ago
Thanks for letting me know. I am doing a FULL REWRITE of the entire app. So I will make sure that this is done correctly. AirTool 3.0 will be a huge overhaul of the entire app.
MaverickUSN316 2 month(s) ago
cool col
MaverickUSN316
I am hitting this off with 5 stars because i see its potential. But either i did something wrong or this version is buggy, the audio files keep looping. how do i stop that?
MaverickUSN316 3 month(s) ago
Nevermind it was just looping to set up the audio file once its saved it operates properly. Is there a short cut key that you can press to open the interface in the simulator to use the audio files?
shehzadeMurat40
Look Airtool program is stucked and not working after reinstall it... the reason of reinstallation was when I clicked to .exe the program has just showed the name of it and then log in section didn't come up, throwed me to the desktop... it wasn't like that before... I was using it constantly after updates... but unfortunatelly, yesterday these problem happened... I removed it and reinstall it, the log in screen just disappeared without a reason... the program has just worked super good until this problem... can anyone faced this problem?

Sorry for the late response. For some reason, there have been a few people who've had this issue since the last update.
