Game Strategy / Re: Airbus A300 Range

Well I like the MD-81 because it is so cheap and I do have quite a big soft spot for it.  I suppose you could call me a hipster for not going with the 737 or A320 xD The speed however, is not a huge problem for me as I only fly within Europe around Scandinavia, the Baltic and Northern Europe so there's not much distance between my destinations. I should also add that I have just put my last A300B2-200 into service and it's making €640,000 a day!

Thank you very much for your advice and I take it all on board, but as I mentioned, they're all operating between my medium hubs to LHR CDG etc.. one is actually making €580,000 a day.  Obviously I'm only going to use a small amount of these planes.  They're just to put up with competition from the giants.  I thought that putting a Short Range 747 on those routes was a bit too far xD Any airport below 25,000,000 has an MD-81 on it btw.

Game Strategy / Airbus A300 Range

I'm currently in Private World #2245 and it's August 1990.  I was just wandering about the Airbus A300 range (the A300B2-200 in particular). I've bought 10 of these and I want to know if I've made a good decision as I just read a forum post saying "2 rules: 1, don't buy anything over €300,000,000 and 2, don't buy anything with more than 300 PAX.  However, the A300B2-200 has 336 seats yet it's only €130,000,000.  I use it between my hubs (Copenhagen, Oslo, Helsinki, Stockholm, Brussels, Prague...) to places like London Heathrow and Paris Charles De Gaulle.  I currently have 6 in operation and they are all making in excess of €450,000/day.  I will only use them for short haul routes inside Europe so the only downfall I can see is the turn around time which is 1.34 but will the maintenance costs dwarf the profits made?  I need some advice.  Thanks in advance.

Is anyone available to do mines? I need a logo and colour scheme:

Name: Scotlandia
Country: United Kingdom
Colours: White and blue (a tiny bit of red in the colour scheme, but not the logo)
Extra Info: I'd like some sort of implementation of the Scottish flag on the aircraft skins (ATR and an MD-81 would be really apreciated).  The slogan is "Proud of our country, proud of our airline".

Thanks in advance!

Can I do the United Kingdom again but put it into the proper counties rather than just Scotland, England, Northern Ireland and Wales?
