First off, I must say that I enjoy iranair's unintentional comedy. Top marks to dktc for managing this perfectly well.
Secondly, I've found that orders via in-game brokers take time. Lots of time. You never quite know when the plane is going to show up, and you usually don't know how much it's going to cost when it does. It's annoying, especially when you've got a chunk of cash set aside for the plane, but it's worth it in the end for the deals you get.
Third, I'm in Orange's alliance, and he's been noticeably absent for a while now. That tells me that he's got one of those weird things known as a 'real life' that's probably taking priority over satisfying an irrationally angry webgame player.
Fourth, why a Middle Eastern airline in this game would want a 747 is beyond me. The turn times are so long that you can't use it for lots of short-haul routes, since the plane ends up spending more time on the ground than in the air. That means you can only do long-haul with it, and there aren't many long-haul routes that you can make enough profit from to justify using a 747. I'm a small-continent airline myself, and the biggest thing I can use is a 727. For us, the only thing a 747 is useful for is leasing out to people who are stupid enough to take it.
