    I too have extra body's. This event I've sent seven mystery parts, all seven are body's. Last blimp event I had nine mystery parts and got split 3,3,3 so I was able to build 3 blimps. Since I have the four blimps from last event and one more coming I don't really need any more but it would be nice to get few.

    I've had more luck lately, my blimps parts are closer to even now.

    Edit: well I've scratched my way up the leader boards and can finally see Ms Faye, first time I've ever seen you on the same leader board screen as myself lol So I've decided job well done for the night and will pick up the right again tomorrow!

    Had to post this before I run off for the day:
    - Faye - well, when I woke up, you are at #13. How do you dash your way through from #145? Anyway, I was looking for you when I realize I made it to the top #10 though not much longer as I've a full day of work (not PP work).
    - Vic and Coastcat and nokitano: precious fountain of tips as always.

    I should go shower and get ready to go out, but ... the planes are waiting ...zzzz
    And stupid me, I was tapping round trip so much that I did it for one of my feeder planes !

    The mystery parts are lots of fun! Too bad I have 2 blimp bodies now :p

    I'm #89 right now, so it's not like I can see any top 10 people. And top 10 people can't see me :p

    Blue passengers

    Hi, I'm pretty new to the game and am playing an event now. Just wondering, are blue passengers (i.e. for the event) very rare? I keep ferrying cargo, but have not seen a single passenger for the event. Is this normal?

    Bell78 - the passengers aren't that rare. You might be seeing only cargo because you have only cargo planes on the job? Otherwise, I don't know... maybe the random just likes feeding you cargo instead of people ;)

    And welcome! Have you joined the toucharcade flight crew?

    Blue passengers only appear doing flight crew events, not local. And all jobs going to the place of a flight crew event are blue unless a people or cargo only event happens.

    I sent full planes to tokyo and the red cities around. I only lost coins sending planes to London and Paris.

    What happens with the rank? I was on second place 7 hours ago.
    Does the events end at different times around the world?

    Hmm, I'm using the 4 planes that I started with, which is a mix of only cargo planes and only passenger planes. It's so odd, I haven't seen a single blue passenger. The same goes for my fren who is already at level 18.

    Thanks! Yes i have :)

    Oh, but I do see jobs to Ottawa which are still white even though I'm taking part in the flight crew event.

    Btw, how do we know if an event is only a people or cargo only event? Is the thanksgiving in ottawa a cargo only event?

    Are you using android? Heard they had the same issue (only cargo) with the Bangalore event.

    I thought buying advertising increases number of passengers for that airport but it actually makes more people want to go there from other places instead. Or am i wrong :S

    Also i wish this game stopped throwing Blimp engines at me. Anything but that!

    I am going to sleep out of sheer protest.

    I am operating on the twin city hub strategy, with feeder areoeagles flying between cities to layover enough P/C for the big planes. So I'm flying between NY/Chicago to London/Paris.

    First Paris is closed for 30 min because of snowstorm. I patiently waited until Paris is open, which was promptly followed by London's closure for an hour !!! :mad::mad::mad:

    Will PP be mean enough to close NY and/or Chicago?

    Hi.

    I see there is another event in bogota at the moment. If I fly things there do I earn something extra?

    Thanks

    Do 1,000 jobs to that individual event and you get 15 bux.
