    If I try for a while I think I'll get into the top ten, depending on how lucky I get with cyclones in the market and the amount of time I have. I'm at around 700 but that's not enough jobs for me :)

    I like glitches, but not cheats. I'm not going to go into code and adjust the game that way.

    Hi,

    How is it possible to get a blimp? Do they only come up as parts in an event??

    That is correct. They are only given out as prizes or some can gift you the parts if you trade.

    Bluebear88: There's a music festival going on at Kalgoorlie :)

    Aside: The nearest red city to Australia is Jakarta? It must be very tough to begin there. I started in Asia ... easiest :D

    Very tough, but then again it makes the rest of the game seem easier by comparison. :p I started with Sydney and Melbourne, hopped my way up the eastern shore, and let me tell you, it was exciting when I could reach Alice Springs for the first time!

    I've closed most of my operations now, although I'm still running a few planes around between Dhaka, Bangalore, and Singapore (which has a money transport event) and am sending some long-distance planes between London and Seoul to pick up some funds. At #14 now with 1870 jobs but I expect to drop several places as others charge forward.

    Got my fingers crossed for the next global event being a class 1 city in southern Africa or the far reaches of Alaska/Canada... (this means we'll get a red city in Europe, just watch)

    So I have been fiddling around with color schemes for my airline. I settled on Charcoal, Steel and Burnt Orange. The Tetra C looks good in them and I adore the patterns on the Fogbuster P if you use Charcoal, Burnt Orange and then Steel. What do you guys think is the coolest color and which plane has the coolest pattern. I am with the Fog P.

    My airline's colours are Steel/White, Safety Orange, and Amber. I tried to duplicate Braniff Air liveries.

    Yep, I did! :)

    A little bittersweet considering whoever made it past me has either twice the amount of planes that I do, or is cheating. They jumped from around 5k to over 11k in the span of about 3 hours. With 26 planes clustered and running round trips from all the nearby L3 cities, I could do about 520 jobs per hour. To do 2k jobs per hour seems impossible without some kind of... unfair advantage.

    Yes I noticed that this person snuck up there within the past few hours. I saw you holding steady at #1 during most of this event. I know I have experienced GC lag, but it's never been such a great leap.

    Can I ask a favour of you guys: Don't do any jobs for the first 2 minutes, I will load a plane and bux boost it, so I can get a screenshot of me at #1. It would mean the world to me.

    The upgrade should have a history of global finishes as a new feature, otherwise all you've done is wiped clear every 3 1/2 days. This is the reason I run out to a lead and then lose interest.

    We need a whole plane/balloon event with mystery parts SOOOOOOOOOO bad. Heck, I'd even take doing the full blimp event again.

    I think it will depend on where it is located cuz I'm going Bux broke re-arranging my fleet each time a new one begins, spending more Bux than the Bux prize for the event.
