Title: Planes?
Post by: dominicyap on November 20, 2008, 12:30:59 pm
To those who have experienced it, which is better, the MD11 or the Boeing 777-200?

Neither.

Both are too large and too expensive for reasonable usage in the game.

Agreed, the largest plane I use is a 767-300, even that is hard to make a lot of money with.

The only reason I use the big planes is for fun, there isn't much more to buy when you have billions lying around. If I had to choose, I usually go for the 777, because I like to have a common fleet, and buy the -200LR and -300 later on, those aircraft having extra range and extra seats.

But remember you'l get crappy profits with any big plane.

Agreed, but it's fun having massive long haul fleets with flights to everywhere. I always go with the 777s because they are my favourite long haul AC

The best for me is the A310-200 with PW JT9D-7R4E1. With only a fuel burn of 1262, a speed of 484 and a range of 4300++, the best!!!

I ordered 20 777-300ERs in W10 just because I had some spare money, and my LHR base needs big LH planes...

777-200ER i think will be the most reasonable long haul plane. The 777-300 is abit oversized.... and the 747? Forget bout it, unless ur living in lala land.  :lol:

I bought 5 747s (400ER) for fun. The 777-300 can carry more passengers and uses less fuel, but when you have enough money to waste it on these large aircraft, it doesn't really matter!

Hahahahah
747s...
true, wat u said. When you are buying these heavies, expect to waste money!

A330-200 or B767-200ER if you need the range.

Anything over 300 seats or 170M is a waste.
