General Chat / Easy way to sell/lease out planes?

How do I sell or lease planes?  I can't seem to find a way on the buy/sell page.  Thanks.

General Chat / Rule of thumb for fee for creating a new base at a $ airport

Yeah that makes getting a new base a tad pricey.  Do the airlines pay this cost in reality?

So alliances who control the airports waive the fees to setup a base??  I'm confused as to what you all mean.  Remember, not everyone has been playing this for that long.  

In terms of joining an alliance, I'm more of the Marlo Stanfield type.  Joining the co-op might sound good, but I'd rather go it alone.

I looked through the manual but it makes no mention of this that I can see.  I'm looking to create a new base.  I'd like to do so at a busy hub.  The issue is leasing enough gates to do this requires a significant investment.  Once I do this, I then find out what the fee would be to create a base.  Should I not be able to know this before making the base?  Is there any way to tell?  Help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

"I created successful routes Very Happy And I was patient enough to wait for the money to buy an aircraft. "

So if you don't have airplanes as you didn't have leases how does being patient matter?  An airline with no planes flying makes no money no matter how patient the owner is.

General Chat / What's a good DOP per gate at a main hub?
« on: December 13, 2007, 07:24:42 pm »
Does anyone know what is a good DOP per gate a main hub.  I'm talking about exclusive of revenues from other venues such as airplane rentals, leases, gates, other bases, etc.

General Chat / Maintenance costs
« on: December 12, 2007, 10:58:07 pm »
I searched for this topic and didn't find anything.  Does anyone know how the maintenance cost is calculated?  I know that maint is included in the leases, so I want to weigh the value of my leases vs the value of ownership/maintenance.  Anyone have any ideas?

Hahaha, you have WAAAY more patience than I do.  I'll sleep on it.  By tomorrow my little slip with the base will be remedied and I can start to swap out purchased planes for the leased ones.  Maybe then I'll sit on it for a while.

The place I went it was.  I don't know if the month ends earlier either but it just ended before I canceled.  4 gates at Fresno just cost me 400k, another 400k since its the start of another month and 200k I would have saved in buying an plane with the cash I had.  Neat game, but the manual is a little lacking in informing people of costs.

If it's any consolation, you can't even register on their site using Mozilla.  They also have no contact information unless you're registered.  I love sites that have issues with registration where you need to be registered in order to get help with registration.

You guys forgot the $5M I need to open a base.  I just spend $400k to rent gates at an airport that I can't use.  Do I just let this sit for a few days until I can afford this?

Never leased?  I didn't start with enough cash to buy one?  How could you go without leasing?
