Cargo traffic- FEDEX and UPS for Traffic Global and P3Dv5

@Derek
Thanks for the information.
I just wanted to say, for example, at the airport in Frankfurt but also other large airports, planes land a few times an hour. Rich recently mentioned that he has a solution to this disadvantage.

ThanksActually, this is what he wrote:
Future traffic levels are probably dependant on how wedded people are to basing aircraft movements on real world schedules. I'm happy to add an option that would artificially increase the amount of traffic in the sim, but generating extra flight plans via some rules and some degree of randomness instead of relying on the real database would inevitably require a compromise on accuracy.

The database is what it is. It was generated on a particular day (in 2019 IIRC) and Traffic Global has aircraft and liveries that will attach themselves to the flights.So, if there is a flight from Quinboltoknam to Cambletown Int'l, using an Airbus A371-200 from TrumpBiden Airlines and the plane and livery are included then you will see the flight. If not, although the flight is in the database it won't happen as there is no plane or livery to fly it. You can choose the substitutes option but that will only provide an approximate plane or livery.
We have added more aircraft and liveries since the program was released but no immediate plans to add more. The selection is, we think, excellent but we can't cover every possible plane or carrier.

(For example, TUI and many other airlines do not appear at airports, missing a380).I don't need to add extra flights, overall it's about the flight database generating flights that are correctly recorded (plane and livery are included in the program).
