Tried Giving Aircraft a Purpose recently and really liked it, so happy to see you getting these contracts up and running as have finally gained an appreciation for aircraft in KSP. Just installed it, so will let you know if anything goes wrong or just continue to give a thumbs up on your next releases if everything is going well.

Flight advisory:

So a funny thing happened on the way to the south pole.... because the Kermundsen base there is in such close proximity to the pole and the in-flight headings actually "flip" during flight, the settings for the mods Kramax Autopilot Continued and NavUtilities continued  had to be fudge a bit. They sort of work, but the readouts they give while doing so often seem "reversed" .  Make sure your camera is set to chase as the auto setting follows the heading changes even though you are flying level and it's a bit disorienting.

Also, be warned, The Kraken lives here... things behave strangely and I've had planes simply fall out of the sky on approach.  

Your best bet is to fly under manual control and rely on visual positioning. RWY 19 is more forgiving than RWY 02 (and even these are fudged because for the majority of the inbound flight to both your heading is at 180 )

In play testing, the #3 missions requiring 12-80 passengers can be a little much early in the tech tree so they have been modified to require that  Heavy Aerodynamics  be researched before they become active. This works in Stock and Community Tech Tree career modes.

Actually: this will be changed to just the part MK3 Passenger Module part as this is the basic part to make a craft capable of flying up to 80 passengers, and it makes it compatible with pretty much any tech tree module.

First mod, first bug. :mad:

The logo in the Agencies,cfg file is incorrect. Everything still works but the logo appears all white in the contracts window [sigh]
The fix is already in GitHub if you want to go and get it manually. I'm checking out some other things first before I make a new release.
