    Misha,
    I advertised starting day two...I have 32 planes in the air and 35 cities open...I had 3 different stratagies going on (none of them made sense to me, even though I was the one doing it :eek:) What I think I learned was....Every X amount of flights(have no idea what that amount was :eek:) I would get like 10 or so Mystery Parts in mostly LA, London, Rio, and Tokyo...I did no refreshes or spend extra Bux to speed up planes...I always sent a plane full of jobs to Paris and I KNOW...NONE OF THIS IS MAKING ANY SENSE AT ALL. Let's just agree I got lucky AND now I have 15 FULL Sea Knights...:D:D
    Cheers and have a GREAT DAY Misha.

    I checked with the price of my 42nd slot, it's the right formula.
    How did they end up with a formula like that lol???
    ok so the 50th slot is worth... 111,983,900 coins lol

    According to my calculations using formulas from the Pocket Planes Wiki (Earning Planes and Currency), you will need 230,068,900 coins to buy plane slots 33-40. Exchanging 20,957 Bux should yield 230,076,425 coins to cover the cost of these 8 slots.

    If you ever come across a situation where there's something you REALLY want, you can always send a suitable plane over and use the "Boost" option (if you can spare the Bux). If I remember correctly, Vicsark has coined this "Chasing Bux" (i.e. spending x Bux to catch a y Bux job, where y > x) :)

    Hate to say this, but when you go to sleep, your jobs don't count towards the Global Event. :p

    Good idea,

    Although I don't imagine there'd be a very large android PP community here as touch arcade is a iOS centric site.

    In any case, my mobage ID is frownface

    edit: also, i notice that the speed bug is still persisting.

    I'm trying to file a bug report to mobage, but omg their support page is horrible, I can't for the lift of me work out how to submit a bug report :S

    Some of this method worked wonders for me. After slimming down to ~10 airports & loitering some M planes at airports, I received 3 mystery parts within the first hour or so. Completed a Sea Knight!

    Danke.
