    Is anyone having any luck finding any mystery parts? I have been updating the job lists and have sent around 200 jobs to London and have yet to see a mystery part.

    Ive been lucky enough to have enough mystery parts to the point where I could build three blimps after the first day of the event. Not gonna donate. Just gonna use them for small Class 1 or events that dont require much attention.

    Are you checking all your airports every time jobs refresh? Also, if you're looking in the jobs list for them, make sure you're searching by Cargo. Though, it's much faster to just scan the terminal for the part itself.

    Yep, that is definitely the best approach. I've found 17 mystery parts this way so far.

    does airport class matter to the likliness of finding a mystery part?

    i have a selection of each class open, am checking each airport every job refresh and am not finding any, just a tad disappointing cuz i found mystery parts in other events, but the blimp is one i really want a few of :/ i guess thats just the way things go

    Nope but there is more jobs in the higher classes so it may have a slightly better chance.

    Agreed, Class 3's are the way to go, I'm falling over Mystery Parts, just shipped a plane up to London with 3 on board.

    I'm level 21 and have still never seen a mystery part. What do they look like? Are they only for the event cities?

    It's incredibly annoying; I have done so many jobs to the event in London, yet I still have not got ANY mystery parts yet.

    Anyone else having trouble with these? I've been on 96% for a while now, since then I have shipped another 20 jobs and it just doesn't update :(

    NimbleTim, any suggestions? I've rebooted the device.

    In the past two days I got two Blimp controls as mystery parts for the London event...I wonder whether the engine and body parts are available in this event, or just the controls. Anyone know how it works? :confused:

    It's a gold box with a white exclamation point. There's around a 1 in 100 chance that it will take the place of another job that's heading to the event city. It's always classified "Cargo". The text of it is gold in the Jobs list, so it's hard to miss. And because of it's rarity (1/100), it really helps to check all your airports every time the jobs refresh. About half the time I have to spend bux to shoot a plane over to an empty airport and grab a mystery part.

    This is what it looks like sitting in the airport terminal:

    It's all about checking your airports. I have only done 19 event jobs so far (I know, I've been slacking), but I have 13 blimp parts.

    I got 5 blimp parts the first day but yesterday I got 0. Not sure what the deal was but there were just none to be found. And haven't gotten any today but that is not unusual because I don't have wi-fi at work never get any until I get home.
