Just want to see exactly how much scrapped planes Hampo and the other brokers receive as well as how many go on the market. :)

usually i keep them for 2 or 3 months to keep watch on the market. When the time is profitable enough for me to sell the plane, then i will sell them on open market  8)

of course, poisoned new players to buy my aircraft is also my priority  :lol:

Depends on what the market for a plane is like.

My first choice is to lease.  But if there are dozens of planes on the leasing market for the minimum price that doesn't make too much sense.

My second choice is to sell.  But if the market price for the plane is substantially under its value I usually just scrap it.

Sell them. I bought a brand new Ambassador from the factory for 7 million, and sold it for 9.5 the next day  :twisted:

I normally leave it in the aircraft market for sale for 2 days on the lowest price. If it dosen't go in those two days, i'll scrap (Wat i did to my DC-3)
