    I opened Novosibirsk after seeing it mentioned. Have a zero items show up to ship to the event city. Zip. At least it was cheap to buy but will likely close it shortly.

    EDIT: Just got two hits.

    I often get no luck in the big red cities when I need to load my plane with one more P/C. I could be in NY with a Shanghai-bound plane that is 9/10 full. Check back after next job refresh and there is no new Shanghai job to pick up. Wait for next job refresh, ditto. The next time I check might even be an hour later. It's as if the job pool never changed. So I end up with a grounded plane for much longer than I would like be because I can't fill that one last spot on the plane.

    Number of airports you can have is level +5.
    So level 30 can have 35 airports.

    No, level is not capped at 30. I'm level 38.

    My main airports are on Europe, I have Istanbul, Paris and London for major airports and I also have Kiev and Minsk from before so I just need perm and then I'll be getting jobs in.

    Where are my upgrades?

    Hey guys, I hope someone can help!

    I love this game and recently updated to 1.0.4. However, after the update was finished downloading, I was missing several of the updates. (i.e., no in-air upgrades to planes, I can still only open one airport per level, etc.) Did I misread the update? Is there anything I can do?

    Don't stalk me.
    Well, I might have if you would have posted in the trading thread and not this one.

    But anyways, does anyone use the Nome to Wellington Achievement besides just doing the flight route for the achievement? I'm thinking of having that route for class 1 planes and having a separate route (Honolulu to Toyko/Sydney) for my class 2 planes. Whatcha think?

    Shut down Novosibirsk. All day and only two event items. Waste of time having planes sitting empty waiting. Five hour flights from London at least get something to Norilsk. Added some Mohawks to he mix to speed things up. All blimps was just too slow.

    I am branching off of Delhi (which exists in my normal runs already) and doing Delhi->Novo->Norlisk. Getting lots of hits in Delhi, but also feeding layovers there from Tokyo and Auckland/Christchurch. Using Blimps is really slow of course (90+ min one-way) but the Mohawks do it in ~30min. I've crossed the 40 job threshold so I will probably just go back to my normal runs and wait for the next challenge.

    I completed 40 jobs with Beijing / Seoul -> ulan batar -> novo -> nor. Instead of doing the quest, I was working on Easter Island and Punta Areas with some blimps.

    Have they changed the minimum jobs for reward to something other than ten?

    40 minimum required for current event. 25 for the one before it. Problem for me too as for the last three events my delivery contribution to the event has stopped at 7 to 9 for some reason and never goes above the number it stops at.

    I like the new event. Needs a bit more effort than usual on my part. Would like tougher events with bigger rewards. :)

    Now this is interesting, I hadn't thought of getting to Norilsk from Seoul (which I already have, along with Beijing, Shanghai, And Tokyo). Maybe I'll take a closer look from that angle tomorrow, too tired now, about to head to bed. Right now I'm ranked #29 with 124 jobs.

    I love how we don't have to sit on top of the Norilsk event 24/7. I can just check in every few hours. We're obviously doing the event for fun or a diversion from the usual routine cuz we can easily get 75 Bux from normal game play/jobbing. Would like to see events with Mystery Parts, it's like opening presents to see what we get. :D love love love the blimp. Now I want a hot air balloon!

    Anyone got a spare plane? Especially a blimp. Or starship:cool::D:D

    Edit: I read through a few pages and I was wondering if Im playing the game wrong as I've spent hours playing this addicting game
    As of now I've got two kangaroos - for the event
    4 sequoias
    4 aero eagles
    3 pear jets
    1 fogbuster
    Right now I'm getting the pear jets and kangaroos to ship around Asia and most of Europe delivering planes to madrid( maxed Irport where my aero eagles make a Madrid -> new York -> Chicago / Mexico/ la / rio/ lamia) flight and back to Madrid
    As for my fog busters and sequioas they make a London to ny flight and expanding through south America from there .
    All of my planes are p and c except for 1 fogbuster which is a m
    Any tips /.constructive criticism is appreciated
    I have all red dot airports except for osaka and harbin which I'm going to remove. Also the xian -> ulan bator some random city and Norris's flight

    Edit 2 all my planes are black with a red somewhere along it -> I've heard about some color coding but I'd like some clarification and explanation

    I'm not sure why everyone is having trouble with this event. I had no trouble at all using Beijing-novo-norl with a full range blimp and full range moh. It was kind of slow going but I never sat in the airport waiting for jobs and if I wanted to I could have added another two MOHs and sent them from novo to Delhi. I had the 40 jobs quickly and with no real inconvenience.
