    Try restarting the app and checking your parts for the Huey part.

    I was wondering which of the following plane organization will provide a better daily average revenue? Anyone have a high enough level to test it?

    // Route
    A - B - C - D - E

    // Plane per connecting airport
    1 plane - A to B
    2 plane - B to C
    2 plane - C to D
    1 plane - D to E

    // Plane per designated route
    4 planes - A to E
    1 feeder plane - A to "a neighboring city"
    1 feeder plane - E to "a neighboring city"

    Same problem here. I already submit 27 jobs and my flight crew rank is number 4. But until now, there is no prize from Goose Bay event (Huey Parts). I already tried to restart app, even restart my iPhone, but still no prize...

    This is the first time I didn't get a prize after 24 hours. Usually the prize is given within 2-3 hours.

    Tim, could you check it? My serial is NB:BIHSGXQ

    Thanks :)

    Hi Everyone!
    I'm a long time lurker, but just registered today to post here.
    I also didn't receive the prize, first time I've ever had a problem. I do have a screenshot of the flight crew page before the event ended - do I have to send that in somewhere? My serial is NB:ERVDSN

    Thanks to all of you who have contributed to this forum and the tiny tower one too!

    "Ghost" Passengers?

    Whenever I land a plane halfway before making the final stretch, the passenger(s) information i.e destination, name, and profit all disappear and because a blank space. Their clothes also change green. I call these ghost passengers because they are pretty much invisible.
    This causes a massive plummet in my profit because when I go onto the map, the cities don't blink to indicate the destination so I have to fly through all my airports resulting in a huge loss. :mad::mad::mad:
    Now, I'm not sure if ALL of you have this or if its just me, but its quite un-nerving to me because, once again, massive loss in profit.
    If anyone has the same problem, or any help, please reply. Thanks.

    Still no reward from last mission

    NimbleTim,
    Will you please check on this for me.

    I am a member of toucharcade flight crew, I ran 20 missions on the Goose Bay event. It has been 24 hours and I still have not received my Huey part. I have closed and opened the app multiple times and I have checked my parts inventory

    Showing full in planes status

    Hi Tim,
    I have a request you might consider. When a plane has some p or c on it, and goes back to plane list screen u will show it as boarding. However I was thinking it would be good to show a status 'Full' if the plane has been fully loaded. I ask for this is because I have to go back and forth to check my big planes from both side of world and fill them and fly them at same time. Sometimes when my layovers are not managed well, I have to do some manuver here and there to fill the plane. It would be good to be able to know whether the plane is ready to take off or not without click into it.

    Not a popular request but I think u might consider...
    Thanks.
    Another thing, I am lv 33 and kind of lost interest of playing it. I couldn't think out of other incentive to play it except for the achievements , however I am not that into them.
    What's ur plan in the future to keep people above lv 30 stick around?

    Things are going good now, level 14 is fun.

    Cities: LA, San Fransisco, NY, Philidelphia, London, Paris and Berlin

    10 planes: 5x Pearjet mix and 5 x Kangoroo mix

    Having more fun now and making more money and bux! Turning level 14 really changes the game, which I needed.

    Have to skip this event because its nowhere near me, but luckily its a bux only event.

    Aeroeagle at level 16 is quite good too.
    You can get Mahajanga and Harare and send one kangaroo there to get those bux, or get nairobi and feed it. At least that's what I did.

    Hit level 30 this morning. Nearing 20 airplanes in flight, one more slot to buy. Cloudliners have been relegated to the hanger since they are simply too big and require too much support in the form of other smaller planes feeding them. Running mostly Sequious and Aeroeagles for main flights with A couple of Cyclones and Fogbusters doing oddball runs. Kangaroos are event support. Running a northern route and a southern as well as one from London to Kinshasa. So far this set up has allowed me to continue running main routes while still being able to support events wherever they occur in the world.

    I do have a suggestion for future events. Mystery cargo every time. The parts do not have to be rare, they could simply be regular plane parts. Part of the fun for me is finding a part, rushing to get it, and then dropping it off at the event and seeing what I got. Even if the parts ended up being sold for coin it would still be cool IMHO.

    Okay, question that has been bugging me for a while. Example of a problem I have. A Sequoia is sitting in an airport with 5/5P and 3/5C for Tokyo. I figure I will come back when new jobs are available and fill the vacant spots to get teh bonus. Typically this works but I have had the odd time I come back and see 2 cargo which I add only to find I have 5/5P and 3/5 or 4/5C. Its like two of the bitzens or cargo did not want to wait and bailed. Anyone else had this happen.

    I've never seen this happen in my game. I can only imagine how frustrating it is for you.

    Bug?

    I've never been to Mahajanga before until the start of the latest Global Event.

    My flight crew screen shows that I have delivered 60 jobs so far. However, on the Achievements screen, my Madagascar achievement is only 53% complete. Meanwhile the airport info screen says 43 passengers and 25 shipments.

    I think Andrwsc was having a similar problem (jobs not adding up between achievements screen & airport info).

    Can somebody tell me if a Sequoia averaging around 8000 an hour is good because I feel that I could do better.

    We stuck with Boarding since that is the terminology used in the Arrivals/Departures screen in airports. As for 30+ most of the content so far has been for players under 30 since that is where the vast majority of players are. In future update will will look into additions and tweaks that can help players at high levels. However at this time I am not going to comment on what those might be :).

    The airport info screen shows combined jobs in and out so it is very easy to get off from the counts used by the achievements (only jobs in).
