    My data never got deleted :p, but 165 jobs? i only have 45, and I'm almost level 7! The update was nice, but what do you mean about the reduced Bux available? :confused:

    Deleting the airport leaves your jobs. I've done it.

    I doubt they'd change the minimum required to qualify because of us - we're an exception because there are many of us, but what about the casual players? Or the solo ones?

    I'm still getting just as many bux deliveries as before the update, haven't really been catching them mid-flight so can't compare.

    I guess we are doing what we should be doing: Competing. We're just doing what they wanted the players to do and we're doing it right! I really hope they didn't lower the Bux, that probably won't go unnoticed if they did, and then the app will slowly go downhill...
    Eh, it's still awesome

    Wiped

    Wiped my 100+ jobs, but I'm good to contribute with enough time.

    Any one know what the blue indicator is for?

    Also, any spare Kangaroo C controls or engine?

    Thanks,

    Is it better to fly planes all at once? And then just wait? :confused:

    You can branch out ;) Open an airport in Calgary and even just one other nearby city like Winnipeg or something. Then build a new plane there. If you only need 5 missions that should be enough to get it done.

    Also, what's the point of a leaderboard with no names? I mean it's nice to know where I stand but c'mon...

    I started in Europe too. What I did is buy Bismark (just south of Calgary) and Calgary so I could help out a bit while working on my European stuff. Probably not the most efficient way, but it works.

    What's annoying about opening Calgary and (airport X) is that your *other* airports (those ones that don't go anywhere near Canada) will have jobs for Calgary. Ugh. I'll probably wait until the event is over to delete the airports.

    Of course, I'll probably have to build two more podunk airports for the next event.

    I know what you mean. Until I got used to seeing all those jobs I'd be like "Oh man 500 coins for this one passenger to Bismark!" then realizing I can't actually get that person there.

    Finally got out the in-game coins that were burning a hole in my pocket and bought Denver for 13,000. I felt as if it were time for an airport.

    It's more 13.5K, but you get the point. Well, I haven't figured out whats so great about it yet. It has 2.6Million people, but I haven't had a neighboring airport have a job @ Denver yet. I'll tell you whats so great about it when i find out!

    That's nothing... People in Calgary will pay 1,822 to get to Nagasaki! Also, 8 Bux.

    Looks like it has a good amount of people to transport for a decent profit, depending on some things. It's one of the better airports I have right now. I'd recommend Denver, but only if you have 13.5K just sitting around.
