    I agree with you! But it's real easy to feel used when your waiting for that return trade, I know the feeling. I'm sure you'll get your Mapple in time! By the way Kit will this be the only Mapple you've got?

    Quick color coding of planes.

    When I was running the feeder areoeagles at different city hubs, I also color coded the planes so that I know which hub the areo is operating at.

    Now that I've begun the bux collection strategy, I have started to color code my planes to indicate what I want the plane for (collect bux or aiming for 25% bonus). So that when I scroll through the list of planes after job generation, I can rmb what I wanted the plane to do.

    I love having a large color palette to color my planes with. For my wishlist,
    1. I would like to request a customizable shortcut palette (say 6 slots) so that I could quickly color the three plane colors accordingly, instead of scrolling through the list of colors until I find the correct one. Something like in powerpoint files, there are like 10 (or so) customizable shortcut slots and I can quickly select the font color.

    2. I'd also like to be able to scroll through the list of open airports :)

    3. A button that can go to the bottom of a LONG list of jobs would be nice.

    I'm sure I'll have other requests but these are right the top of my head.

    Hi there,

    I emailed their support, and they got back to me after 3 days with a request for more information. So I'm hoping they are at least looking into the problem.

    Whenever I quit the game and come back to it after a few hours, it always seems to do an iCloud sync (which I think is what's happening due to my bux & coins showing zero values) when it never used to do it.

    Now I know. But I got it now. Everything is okay. :)

    Nevermind.

    Yeah. He gave me two for a Sea Knight when I said it wasn't unnecessary. People who play this are so generous. :)

    Dear Castlepage,
    Im right behind you. Don't blow me out of the water.
    Cheers.

    Good deal Lucille! We got a good crew here. It's nice seeing generosity, even if its just a game.

    Edit:

    Woohoo! Thanks to Erico for helping complete my first Huey! Gracias! xD Now all I have to work on is my P40 and the three four unreleased planes.

    Kit - I can't see you. Maybe you've flown past me.

    Coastcat certain flew past me. Just now she was a bit below me, now she's right at the top of the screen, ready to disappear anytime.

    This is probably the highest I've gotten in an event, I usually quit after about 50-100 jobs. But I'm at 218 right now which is good enough for #57. Hoping to finish in the top 25. What's the top 10 looking like?

    Odd, I thought we were friends but you're not showing up in my list. Request sent. :D

    I've slithered up to #15 and can now see Teodor and SlightlyNorth further up the board!

    Better get playing again!

    6 - 755
    7 - 740
    8 - 663
    9 - 658
    10 - 644 (me)
    11 - 600
    12 - 579
    13 - 578 (Teodor2004)
    14 - 577
    15 - 572 (SlightlyNorth)

    The only reason I'm putting this sort of effort into a bux-only event (and it's a mere 30 bux, too) is that my city is playing host. Park your AeroEagles at the airport and I'll point you to the good non-touristy restaurants. :p

    Yay I finally finished all the Gamecenter achievements today! Guess I just got individual achievements and the remaining rare planes xD


    My cousin used to live in DC near Bethesda I think(I never got to visit:( ), but he moved off to Dallas a few months ago.

    Grats bear :)

    Gratz coastcat. How about send some good food my way?

    I'm #43 with 314 jobs. I want to call it a day since I've some pressing jobs to do (real life).

    Edit: about color coding the plane, I changed my color scheme to neighbouring colors since there's no shortcut palette for my sequoia Ms.
    Orange tail - +5% range (can fly jakarta - kinshasa)
    Purple tail - +15% range (can fly from NY - Kinshasa and Lima - London)

    Body colors:
    Yellow -- waiting for bux jobs
    Gray -- aiming for 25% bonus
    white - neutral. I usually set a 25% bonus plane to white when flying so that when it lands I know it's empty.

    Color coding really has helped to prepare my mind to what I'm doing when I check a plane. :)

    Ah, so apparently the secret to sending lots of jobs is to have a Game 7 of a league championship series. I watched the game and sent jobs because it doesn't take a lot of attention... and wound up adding about 700 jobs this evening.

    Top 10 right now:

    1 - 3338
    2 - 1159 (me)
    3 - 1077
    4 - 1016
    5 - 970
    6 - 906
    7 - 855 (Faye)
    8 - 785
    9 - 755
    10 - 738
