I think that many can afford 747 now. I chose not to buy one but have ordered IL-62's as I want my fleet to be all Russian this round. Il-62's are 166 million so I could easily have ordered a 747 a long time ago. There are 9 747's in the game, active or on order, 2 of those are by brokers. With a DOP of 10 million it only takes 1.5 real days to save up for a 747

i pity the fools who wasted money on this junk plane

Yep, a junk plane...some planes can even earn lots more

Scandalian Airlines · **Reply #4 on:** January 09, 2008, 09:09:34 am

Not junk, just not good under the circumstances we have in the game. I won't go bigger than IL-62 personally.

Too much turn time earning the same as IL-62. Plus you have to edit them everyday if you want full load.

Well the person who ordered it will still be waiting in a weeks time.

Another reset in the cards?

No, it just takes a bloody long time to produce.

Yeah, more than twice as long as the IL-62

The biggest I will go in this round will only be Tristar.

DC10 and L.1011 doubt i will order any 747-200's although you never know.

I might just end up ordering the IL-62 as my biggest aircraft this round. While the 747-200 is great for flying to large cities from large cities, it just is way too big to make a reasonable profit with considering what I airports I choose as a base airport. But I am cool with that, as I really have no plans to buy them unless I grow into a really large airline with some big time bases.

I'm thinking of staying a nice regional airline in Europe. So no 747's for me

Pacific · **Reply #14 on:** January 09, 2008, 03:21:54 pm

My medium and longhaul fleet shall be 430-470 knot...

...Turboprops!
