Pocket Planes

They were both to London.

got an orange crate this morning munich to london.

Also struggling with the rhythm from asia. I really need another aircraft or 2. but no cash after opening 3 red airports, one blue and 3 black. Plus I've got my short range aircraft running around europe, so I don't want to replace any of those. I feel like qantas with a poor fleet mix.

 

[Boris spatsky]

My short range aircraft make me money; my long range lose me money even when full. I don't get it.

I often use the longrange as feeders. Pick up a five various destination packages in LHR bound for airports in the US. Drop them in NYC and pick up stuff to go back to Europe. Shorter range then picks up those items in NYC and combines to get the 25% bonus so a short flight NYC-ATL earns $4000 but there is the $1800 loss inbound to NYC (oh look the int'l business loses money and domestic makes money )

Just got my first orange mystery box!

Just found my first orange box Mexico City to London, however got to wait to fill the plane…

That said, I regularly make $15k on my Tokyo to LAX runs with my BIG planes. I briefly made $20k when I did a layover in NYC from Asia and then flew transcon with a lot of high paying guests/cargo, however think I do well enough without layovers.

Level 15 so only level 2 aircraft...

Send me your email for Game Centre and I’ll send you some parts for something bigger

 

[Leumas]

Is the feeder/hub strategy the only way to get $20K profit in one flight? I hardly get over $10K even if I fill them full all to one destination...

Oh, you're allowed to have aircraft from beyond your level, like that? I might have to reconsider my previous PM.

The best I can get without a feeder/hub strategy is $15k from Tokyo to Los Angeles, in a Cyclone or a Sequoia or something equally big. The Cloudliner might be the one that can do a direct route and earn even more, seeing as it seats 17!

Just filled up for the Elvis Convention in Mumbai, I am not getting a lot of traffic to London :-(

 

[Ewing]

I'm getting heaps of traffic to London. My problem has been filling the planes back out of London, so I've had to do a few empty positioning flights

 

[Boris spatsky]

Yep, plenty of positioning going on. When i logged off at midnight last night we were coming 4th!! Now steady again in the 40s.

I have 4 blimp parts now from moving orange boxes. One whole blimp plus a spare part. Not sure it is any use though

The disadvantage of sharing iTunes logins with your children's iPods. One of them decided TeamAFF was just too boring.

So how much money did everyone have before they stopped tapping on the flying coins? I have a decent balance but can't help myself and still pick up the extra coins and bux when I see them lol

I only tap them when I'm waiting for new jobs to arrive...

I have trained boygr to tap for me

Weekends are bad for me as I am generally physically away from the iPad and/or driving so not much chance to keep pace with the team. Doing what I can though.

 

[Boris spatsky]

You can tap on the coins?????? Noooooooo.... I always watch them fly across the screen and wonder why the heck they would put those in there.... hahahaha

 

[simongr]

Let's hope you havent missed many of the BUX that also occasionally fly past.

Delivered another orange crate to LHR today - sadly it is another Blimp body part so I have two now

I have one Blimp floating around and some parts but they are just too slow for me
