I, AirXpress swear to only fly Round-Trips
I, AirXpress swear to never fly 0.5 frequencies
Post here if your airline can also promise not to abuse the use of 0.5 frequencies.
-
why?, I mean, they exist on real life too
Southern Copper Airways
-
really.. guess there are gonna be a lot of inter-continental flights you can't fly then
-
We don't really need to know.....
-
up to 2 0.5 frequencys per plane can be real under certain circumstances.
-
Well, Stephen said in another thread that in his opinion, 1x 0.5 is allowed, while 2x 0.5 is allowed for Base-to-Base routes.
I have every plan on sticking to the above.
-
I only have 0.5 frquency flights on my long haullers cause thats the highest i can get
-
I have a few 0.5 routes, but that's mostly due to 7,000+nm city pairs and only enough hours for such a frequency, and I may have one or two domestic 0.5 routes, but that is about it. I also vow to not abuse the 0.5 frequency bit because I don't think it's right...
-
I just read this thread. I'm new in the game (started last week), and yes, now I think it's something like a question of honour to fly roundtrips.
Of course, in reality planes may have routings like DCA-ORD-MIA-BWI-ATL or so. But since there is a return flight in the flighttable (i.e. DCA-ORD XY100,
ORD-DCA XY101), and because these complex routings cannot be setup in AM, we should use returnflights whenever possible.
I still have 0.5 routes ex MXP and OSL, but I will change that asap, whenever I have the time to re-route everything. The 0.5's ex ATH are to fill the aircraft's hours.
Italian Star International (ITS) won't abuse 0.5 frequencies (I don't care about the ranking).

same here. on flights shorter than 5,000 nm I never do 0.5 freq.

hmm, I´m using a lot of 0.5 freqs, is that illegal?, I´m new, it´s a great way to survive :?
-
I, Attention City Express, hereby promise not to use more than one 0.5 frequency on one route.
hmm, I´m using a lot of 0.5 freqs, is that illegal?, I´m new, it´s a great way to survive :?
If you do not use more than one 0.5 frequency on a single route then I think it would not be illegal.
-
I won't play against the rules of reality!
-
0.5 frequencies happen in real life when planes are positioning in. And also when Air France base a plane in the carribean.

Correct.

thanks guys

I, Lantau Airways swear to only fly Round-Trips.
I, Lantau Airways swear to never fly 0.5 frequencies on flights shorter than 5,000 nm or 12 hours journey.
Add one more,
I, Lantau Airways never employ David Copperfield but pilots :roll:
-
I'm not going to be using 0.5 frequencies. I will probably use different aircraft for every route.
-
Use 0.5 if you need to realisticly, But just dont abuse it by putting 2 0.5 flights on the same route.
Abuse it and you will be found out.
-
Abuse it and you will be found out.
[EDIT: Daniel Doorgakant. Dont use my word 8) ] Agreed. :P
*edit: lol @ Daniel*
-
I, OrangeAir, hereby announce I never created, and never will create, more than one 0.5 route per plane, and will always play this game within the bounds of reality.
-
I do my best to keep my flights realistic. Only one 0.5 frequency flight per aircraft for me.
It's sad to see that the two richest airlines in the game have almost all 0.5 frequency flights.
-
Zombie Tradewinds, the newest airline servicing the southwest also pledges not to use .5 routes. Now I need to go and relook that 1.5 I have.
Darnit. I'm going to relook a route I just set-up. I wanted to go long-range so I leased a big 'un and set a route to Rio from San Antone. The max frequency is .5. I'm going to research my options and see what I can do differently to fix that. So for now, I have one plane in my airlines doing a .5, and I've gone back on my word (with the above explanation).
My apologies.
Well, I closed Rio. I would lose money on that anyway. I reassigned the aircraft to 3 other routes, unfortunately one being a .5. With those three, I am barely breaking even on the lease, so after a month or two I will probably quit the lease. I don't think I am up-to-snuff yet on the intricacies of running long-range routes. I hope to get smarter before the re-set. Thatnks for your patience with the noob.

Abuse it and you will be found out.
So what about the guy who has one 0.5 flight going into a destination, but that's all he offers on all of his gates.

If it isn't on the same destination that's fine... because some very long haul flights can only do 0.5 frequencies..
If it's on the same destination NO it's BAD
-

That is technically legal, as of now, as long as he uses the gates (ie, not only 1 route for 10 gates and keep hogging them)

On some routes, 0.5 is the only possibility, for example, routes that are over 5000 nm, even with a 747-400ER(fastest plane in game), its not possible to fly a 1 frequency, so relax
-
It's only when you create lots of 0.5 routes that are essentially the same, such as 5 routes from Dresden to Hamburg, that will get you in the warzone :)
-
*edited by Jps again.. Ok*
Agreed :D
-
well i only have 0.5 on long hauller as i have stated in this post before and now ive got this message!:
The Airline Mogul admin team is aware that you have routes that fall in either one or both of the following categories;
- routes with more than 5 frequencies
- routes with more than 1 0.5 frequency (multi-0.5)
Please restructure your routes from your bases (London Heathrow, Edinburgh) to acceptable frequencies. If the situation still exists by 24 Dec, 05 in-game date (approx 72 hours from now), your routes concerned will be deleted by the admins.
-
Iranair maybe you have 2 0.5 frequency routes..on a long haul destination
-
Thanks to all airlines that have vowed to comply with the rules and not abuse the 0.5 frequencies!
