    Seems everybody is not getting mystery parts, have had 5x body, 5x controls and 4x engine, but really the balloon is pointless apart from the nome-wellington challenge

    I think I can safely say that the Hot Air Balloon is the quietest air vehicle in this game.

    The rumors are true. They are slot but they ALWAYS turn a profit. The passenger pays full price of where he/she is going. I will send some parts as soon as my bux jobs land. :)

    Hey guys I'm thinking about joining TA1, but I'm wondering how you guys are as far as ranking. How are you doing in this event (place-wise)?
    EDIT
    I figured you guys would be in the top 10, so I joined. I see that it's in second. I hope the group stays somewhat small so we can see GC tags. :D

    TA1 is currently #2 with 53389 jobs. The #1 team (the original TouchArcade) has 320392 jobs and #3 has 42086.

    Greetings all, just dropping in because we still have power. Not sure how long that will last as the winds picked up a couple hours ago and it's a bit alarming out there!

    Thanks coastcat. I'm in. Hope to contribute quite a bit, and the competitive aspect is going to be pretty fun! :p
    I hope you stay safe in the storm.

    Huh. I'm only at 650 jobs but have 7 parts, I guess I must be lucky. I tried out a balloon, but the stuck it in the hangar for now so I can rack up the jobs. I slipped to #26 while busy at work. :p

    Made it up to 11th place, been working my butt off to get there, doubt I can hold it though. Had 16 mystery parts so far, more bodies than anything. Would really like to trade something for Mapples, some level 3 parts maybe or whatever you think you need for them. Any takers??

    I'm up to 46 parts found, but I have 10 more mystery boxes in layover at LA. I quit looking for parts though early this morning. I've been working on jobs kinda; jumped up to 2400 jobs today, not bad considering I started at 750 this morning and played a ton of mw3 xD MITD!

    Edit: During the Ottawa event, I found enough parts to build 24 blimps with 10 engines and 3 bodies extra. What's that? 85 parts? o_O I might be able to beat that if I focus on it the next two days... But idk if I want that many balloons lol Maybe I should start a Hot Air Balloon Festival....

    The community, the updates, the competition, the subject...
    It really depends on what you like about games, one person might find this addictive and his twin sister might think it is just another waste of time. If you enjoy managing games, this one is definitely worth giving a shot. It can be addicting and has attracted countless players.

    Wow! You're luckier than I am! Or are you doing the "have a plane waiting at every airport for mystery parts" strategy?

    Hihi all, just dropping in to say hello. Busy day yesterday, today, tomorrow, Thu ... basically this week. And perhaps next week :(

    Coastcat: good to see you ! wanted to see your post to be sure you're safe.

    Just checked the leaderboard. Cybernator has 7227 jobs, which is twice that of Vic and almost 3 times of mine (2926 jobs). At this rate, he could have started his own flight crew and still made it into top 10.

    Even then, need to cycle through every airport which takes time.
