    Probably around 650-715 jobs. The top 30 requires 765 and I'm #28 at 785 jobs.

    This event hasn't been as popular as the last few, thats probably why I'm in the top 30 :D

    Yeah definitely a very low turnout.
    Chicago's #1 had over 10,000 jobs.
    So 4,000 for Miami is nothing.

    Upcoming global event

    After the new event tonight, could Wednesday be a Football Finals event in NY for the start of the NFL season?

    Sept 12 is rumored to being the announcement of the IPhone 5. Maybe a Science Fair/Sci-Fi Convention/Biz Meeting for San Francisco?

    The last place a football finals should be in is NY! The Giants suck :D

    Too bad Green Bay isnt on the map because that's where the event should be :)

    Just after a full flight from NY to Shanghai, my first Sequoia (gifted from Faye) passed my Aeroeagle for top earner. My Aeroeagle had made at least 300k so my Sequoia making that in 5 or so days is pretty good, for the first few days I didn't have a route set up for it, it just went wherever there was jobs.

    You have a point there. Hmm.... can't remember how many jobs were delivered in the Top 10 for other class 2 cities.

    I only look at my Average Daily Revenue to see how I'm doing overall. It's currently 1.6 million, which is not bad considering my playing style is not geared towards maximum profit.

    My plane lineup and playing style keeps changing so I get inaccurate readings from plane profit/hour. Right now, my most profitable planes are Aeroeagles earning between 13k and 14k per hour. My most profitable Sequoia is 6.5k per hour, and my least profitable plane in the entire fleet is also a Sequoia at 3k per hour. LOL


    Edited to add:
    I'm reading a book and reached a point where someone mentioned Trondheim. I had to smile ... I know where that is thanks to Pocket Planes! :D

    Year before they did, they also have the most league championships out of any team. It was the defense that lost it for them. At least they almost went unbeaten :D

    Don't care where the event is, as long as a rare plane is involved. I predict a class one airport in the China area.

    I have 4 sequoia Ms that hover around $8000 an hour to $7700 an hour. My other M is at 7k because it is for bux jobs and my other P doesn't bring in too much profit, mainly at 6k an hour. It's harder to fill, I really enjoy Ms.

    New event is a mime festival in Paris. Sea knight part and 20 bux.

    If you have a Sequoia, Fogbuster, Cyclone, or Cloudliner, you can buy Paris for the new Flight Crew event and do NY to Paris.

    If you have a 3x range upgraded Pearjet or Aeroeagle, you can buy London and Paris. These planes won't make the hop from NY to Paris, so you'd have to go through London to Paris.

    I can easily spend half or more of these Flight Crew Bux rewards in rearranging my fleet for these Flight Crew events. LOL I won't need to do it for Paris, but it has happened in past events.

    When I used P and C planes, I had to buy them in pairs so things didn't go lopsided.

    I don't know the final values, but this was the Miami Top 10 a few minutes before the event ended:

    1. 4014
    2. 3975
    3. 3901 (me)
    4. 2730
    5. 2534
    6. 2243
    7. 2161 (coastcat)
    8. 1880
    9. 1748
    10. 1532


    Paris is a Class 3 city like Chicago. Wonder if #1 will have over 10,000 jobs.

    While I can appreciate the extra capacity of the Sea Knight, I still prefer using Kangaroos for class 1 and class 2 events. The only way I can get Sea Knights to work for me is to grab 1 non-layover C, 2 layover P and 2 layover C, otherwise I end up with a bunch of P layovers.
