Universal Pocket Planes by NimbleBit - Join Flight Crew #TouchArcade

Question: Has anyone gotten any mystery part jobs for the current event yet? I got a ton for the last event, but I haven't seen a single one for this one.

 

When you said you have long spaced out airports, do you mind me asking which ones you do use?

 

I started in Japan, so my main operation is:

Paris <-> Tehran <-> Dhaka <-> Tokyo

This does require one range upgrade to each Birchcrafts, but since this strategy stays valid for so long, it actually isn't a bad investment to just upgrade all of your Birchcrafts fully for maximum profit and flexibility (in the case of events, especially).

 

Great, thanks for the help.

 

I'm sure it's been mentioned but how many deliveries must you make to a global event to be eligible for the reward and is there a way to check it?

 

I haven't. There weren't any mystery parts for the first event either so maybe this event just doesn't have them.

 

5 deliveries. This question is asked like every 2 or 3 pages, just check a couple of pages. To check just look in the global event.

 

Help

Ok guys, im quite a noob at this game so i wanted to know if anyone had any spare airvan, or just any spare parts that they dont need and that they could give them to me please. My username is moonchav.
Thanks to anyone who helps out

 

Anyone else having a problem with their Global Event numbers getting updated? Mine was stuck at 1. I decided to completely shutdown the app and reload. And now at least at 3. I should have 5 by now. I'll just keep going as I'm not concerned if it just missed 2, but wondering if anyone else has noticed this.

My base is in North America, but I opened up Casablanca and Barcelona (no way for me to reach my my main operations), then restarted one of my planes at Barcelona. Not sure if it was the smartest decision, but I wanted to try out this idea. Unfortunately, these don't necessarily have jobs going to either of these cities, so I sometimes have to wait until a decent job opens up. I am thinking of closing my smaller cities to open up a northern route across Greenland and Iceland to give me entry back and forth from North America and Europe.

 

Tokyo - Manila - Bangkok - Mumbai - Cairo
Not pictured: Algiers<>Casablanca

1 'Roo M running between Algiers and Casablanca
1 'Roo C
1 Pearjet M
5 Birchcraft

When I can fill planes with event jobs, I run 'em to Algiers and drop everything off. The event Roo grabs anything from Casablanca and drops them in Algiers for the bigger planes.

Avg daily revenue: $147k

 

Is there any way to turn off the drop down alerts at the top of the game, those that kept saying "PL001 has landed" etc?
It always blocks the info that I wanna read, and I think it's causing the game to lag a bit, and to crash a couple of times.
Thanks!

 

It just updates slowly, relax.

 

Struggling with my new Pearjet, its profit per hour is just 740 as opposed to my Birchcrafts who have 1300-1600 PPH

 

Pretty happy with my routes so far Got lots of "long-range" routs and variabilites

 

Nice amount of BUX dusel

 

Hi I'm new to the forums and I've been following this thread and picking up lots of great tips. I could use some advice now on what to do next. I'm at level 13 and I have:

2x Birchcraft C
3x Birchcraft P
Kangaroo C
Kangaroo M
Airvan P
Mohawk M

I want to replace the smaller planes, but should I wait to buy pearjets at the next level, or continue buying birchcrafts? I have about 95 bux saved up and I'm almost at level 14.

My airports are:
Honolulu
Los Angeles
San Francisco
Denver
Chicago
New York
Phoenix
Monterrey
Guatemala
Lima
Rio De Janeiro
Recife

So I'm trying to go as long distance as I can and hopefully buy Lagos next. Thanks in advance for any advice.

 

Minimum level/plane needed to cross the Atlantic?

Hi
What's the minimum lvl (and plane) needed to cross the atlantic? (say like from NY to London/Paris/Madrid?)

I'm level 16 - and the aerojet can't seem to quite cover the distance.

 

You need a fully upgraded Pearjet to make the jump.

 

Congratulations!!
