General Chat / ATR 42-300 vs -320

« on: March 17, 2008, 03:38:51 am »

I like the Commuter but delivery time is 48 hours.  The Caravelles, while priced twice as much, will earn more than the savings you get for getting the commuter because delivery time is just 24 hours.  There is a reason why people prefer other planes than commuters.

Good point indeed. That's why I order them at brokers, so I buy them actually when I earned enough money for them. That way the difference in delivery time is just a calculation instead delay of profit.

That people like some specific brand and just buy them at any cost is quite clear. If you look on the amount of Argosy 671 Commuter owners you're probably surprised. That plane can't be beaten on short routes in fuel versus seats comparisation for a price under 16mil.

But hey, who would be proud of saying that he owns an Argosy?  :twisted:

General Chat / Concerning €1 Routes

« on: March 12, 2008, 01:46:34 pm »

I done a €1,- trip as well on some route where I was competing with somebody else. The reason was not to wipe out his competition, but to let him lower his price to still get 100% load, so I could adjust my price back to normal that we both had 100% load and share that route.

Otherwise both of you keep on adjusting the route price several times per day for the rest of the gametime.

Excuse me if I ask something stupid.

Is it already known when the next reset will take place?

If it's not known yet than at least I would appreciate it to hear it as soon as possible.
(that makes the decision of leasing or buying planes easier  :wink: )

My advise is to buy a bunch of Argosy 671 Commuter planes. If you route them good they make almost half a mil per day profit each. Not bad for a plane of just 15mil.

Bugs / Route Map in Airline summary page not showing

« on: March 12, 2008, 11:53:00 am »

I took a look on your routes, the problem airports are:

Kota Kinabalu Int´l Airport
Redang Airport - RDN
Tanjung Manis Long Banga Airpo - LBP
Singapore - Changi International - SIN

So for you having a visual routemap would have a quite high penalty since one of them is even a base of you.

Bugs / Route Map in Airline summary page not showing

I had the same issue. What I found out is that 1 of my destinations did not show on the map, and as result of that the complete routemap of my airline didn't show.

The way I solved it was by removing that 1 destination from my routes. Now it shows OK.

btw, It might be profitable to have such destination in your routes since most players don't like to fly there with the penalty that their routemap is gone  :wink:
