so i am looking at routes and on two different routes someone has three different ac on the route with 1-2 freq's. what sense does that make?

This is legal... and therefore nothing could be explained.

I know it's legal that wasn't my question other wise the persons account would have been frozen or what ever the penalty would be. My question I guess is how does it benefit that player by doing that.

One possibility: after assigning his other preferred routes, he has just a few hours available for each plane so he dumps them into a shorter haul.

This can easily be explained in one word: Idiocy.

The two quickest ways to devalue a route is to assign a large aircraft to a dense route, or assign an aircraft or multiple aircraft on a route with >1 frequency.

He probably has some romantic notion of realism, which he believes translates into this game.

The best explanation is that this dude doesn’t like seeing numbers left in the available hours column of his fleet inventory.

It’s defiantly not the best business plan, but at least his planes are making something more than they where if they where idle.

I like to whip out the A300 on occasion and slam down max frequencies every one in a while, but usually only to teach people what multiple frequencies can do.
