what a POS!! this plane (and this game) suck, avoid it like the plague. i bought 10 of them thinking the extra long 8,326km range would help me to run some profitable long haul frequencies. BUT THIS POS WONT EVEN MAKE A FULL 5500km route!!! what a joke, there has to be a game flaw with this one. almost 300MM wasted on each of these and it wont even make a full 5500km route, it only says it can do .5!! you have to be kidding me. between the huge waste of fuel, the incredibly high maintenance costs and the fact that it wont even do what its supposed to do which is go long routes you guys really screwed this one up :-\
In general I think the algorithm for long distance routes is not correct. Planes from ATL to London Heathrow dont make nearly the money that shorter route planes make to far less populated areas. You have made the game so that long distance routes using the most expensive planes are not cost effective. So basically once you get to a certain point in the game it becomes less and less fun to play. You work hard to build up your airline and then when its supposed to get fun you have a terrible algorithm that just sucks the fun right out of it. good work guys!!! I have moved on to a more well written game.

OK, bye.

and the fact that it wont even do what its supposed to do which is go long routes
Um, do the math.
(5500 / 510) + 1.64 = 12.42 hours
Therefore, this plane can only do one one-way trip across the pond per day (which is a 0.5 frequency).
In addition, there are lots of long-range planes that will make a nice profit and not break the bank (nor ruin the bottom line).

calm down and remember, cursing isn't an answer

most long haul planes in real life wont even do a return trip that far. as pseudoswede has already pointed out do the math the plane cant do that kind of a trip in a 24 hr period.
any way what are you complaining about the game is free {unless you bought points} so you havent lost out on anything have you

We dont need to know if you like it or not. If your unhappy with features, kindly PM admins and inquire, but dont come out whinging on forums.
The Game better of without players like you.

Can't agree with Obmit there...
... if a player is too good in literatures / arts that basic maths is not a skill he/she needs, there is nothing an admin to could....

So how do you really feel? 8)

:lol: thanks for the great read

i actually beg to differ,
i've been playing AM for nearly 3 years.
back when there was only one world, My airline used MD-11ERs as its workhorse long haul aircraft, but not only that Fresh! was in the top 5 airlines
http://stephenm.org/smfforum/index.php?topic=1105.0 (http://stephenm.org/smfforum/index.php?topic=1105.0)
so if sleewell can't make the MD-11 work thats, basically his own fault...
(and next time please don't waste other's time by making such a rude and unnecesary thread)
:roll:

k guys.... enough is enough. Thanks for the feedback though.
