Convair, Comet or Curtis

After the recent poll, I've decided to make another one to see how many people liked these 3. The martin isn't here because of course it would win

. Thanks for voting. (7 day poll)

YOUR VOTE COUNTS!!!! VOTE NOW!

The Convair 340 is included in the Convair 240 vote.

I chose the Comet, I might swing to the CV-340 if it's performance is satisfactory and shows improvmnet over the 240 and M 4-0-4 though.

Advantages of the comet:
-Higher speeds, they allow overcutting on routes, which won't turn them into battle fields as quickly
-Decent fuel burn.
-Good enough range that you can operate till you're near max and still make a good profit.

Downside:
Could've used more seats.

as the biggest Convair op in the game... i can tell you they are great HOWEVER from a strict standpoint of performance the CW-20 is a better choice, bigger, longer range. More expensive too of course...

I operate all

I've been kinda partial to the Martin 2-0-2, however I have a couple of CW-20's on order to do a little comparison and see which works out better for me.

Why do a poll when this resource shows how people vote with their wallets?

As owner of 76 Curtis CW-20s, they have my vote.

The Convair offcourse

Especially the 340 will be great

If it's a big improvement I'm going to replace all my 240's

I operate about 15 Hermes.

And about 29 Connies leased from you.

With 66 Curtisses I had to vote for it, nice little plane

And my 31 Connies aint bad either, but what I really love is my 28 Tupolevs

I have heard good things about them from an alliance member. I think I should order these as a "step" between the M 4-0-4s and Connies. I hope he works well for me.
