Help with departures from new base city.

[JMach]

I seem to be having a problem with availability of aircraft for departures from a new base city I have created.

I just bought 4 gates at Muncie-Johnson Field, and created a base there.  I have several gates that I have purchased but are not in use, because I ran out of room in Grand Rapids.  

When I go to create a route departing from Muncie, I do not have any aircraft available for any of the destinations that are not yet in use.  I even tried a destination that was already in use and only 115 miles away, and still none available.  All of my aircraft have more than enough range for that, and they have between 5-9 hours available.  

However, if I create a route that departs Muncie and arrives in Grand Rapids (the airport where I originally started the game), all three of my airplanes are available - but this obviously does me no good because I do not have gates left in GR.  Is there something I missed in creating a base city that is causing me not to be able to go anywhere but another base city from Muncie?

Thanks for the help!

Your new route must consist of at least one airport served by the aircraft already in order to use an aircraft that has route on it.

That just increased the amount of thinking necessary to succeed by about 10   .  Makes sense, though - thanks for the explanation!
