Just interested to know how people calculate their lease time? I was shocked to see things like "99999" months. The round is over in about 48 months!  :?

I lease them out until the end of the round. Does not make sense to lease aircrafts just one or two years. After that time nobody wants them anymore as they are old then and you will have to scrap it. If you can lease them for the rest of the game you do not have to care about them anymore they just swap some money in every month :D

I have all my a/c leased out at 120 months. You may change your mind and run the game for 10 years....

Huh? :? There are 48 MONTHS left - making it 48 REAL DAYS (as long as the admins want it that way :wink: )

EDIT:
Should be long enough to get a B742.

I normally just throw mine out there for a random amount, usually 99 months.

You do not really wait seven days to order your next aircraft, dont you? :shock: Order some more smaller aircrafts. With your given number you should be able to buy two F28 each day or three Caravelles in two days. If you do not want them in your fleet: sell them at a higher price or lease them out. Although you need to spend more money first it helps you to grow. It will make it later easier for you to buy ten B742 at once :D
