I have hit a wall.  I am @ 4.35mil  I got as high as 5th place  but did not keep up with ordering and didn't realize the differnce in time to get the larger planes.  So now in 7th and expect to drop some more till my planes are up and running in the morning.

I've fell into that trap my first time to lease.  I thought it would surely work out but I end up taking a few hundred thousand loss each month.

Thank you very much.  I do understand now and when I read the manual that obviously did not sink in.

Thank you the math all makes since but how did you know that after 2 half freq you could only do whole?  Is that in the manual or is it just something your supposed to pick up? 

Thank you again

Game Strategy / Mileage guestimations

« on: August 12, 2008, 03:32:40 pm »

I am having trouble guestimating the amount of miles left on an airplane.  I have a Ilyushin Il-18D that has 8 hours left.  I have used the 9.27 hours on a flight of 3231 miles and 6.79 hours on a flight of 2325 miles.  This comes out to about 348 and 342 miles an hour.  matching up with what the aircraft details state.  So in doing simple math I should expect to get a route of at least 2400-2500 miles (7.5 hrs left * 330 = 2475 this is lowbal) But I have purchased gates of 1841 and 1647 miles but it states I don't have an available aircraft.  So my question is why and how would I know before throwing down money on a gate and marketing fees? 

Thanks

Just to make sure before I buy the gates but when creating a new focus city, do you currently have to be flying to that new city.  Said a much clearer way my main hub is in North America and all flights stay there.  Can I open up a focus city in China?  And neither of them be connected?  I want to expiriment in a different region.

Thanks

Game Strategy / Newbie question on Routes

« on: July 31, 2008, 02:19:39 pm »

I am only a few days in so still learning.  If I purchase a new plane and want to shift some hours (routes) from a current plane, what is the best way to do that?  The first time I did it I was charged a marketing fee again.  So is there a more economical way?  


Thanks
