    Not sure but as much as I'd like to think C130, I highly doubt it since I don't think they will release both of the rare planes within a month of each other :/

    Heres to hoping for it though!

    Interesting. I sent a Cloudliner with full weight reduction from Seoul to Tokyo, loaded with jobs originating from Nome, and got a maximum profit of 49,154. Your stats show 49,177 for that. There must be some subtle differences between Android and iOS with respect to distance, flight costs, etc.

    Wow that is indeed strange...

    Seems like the hackers have almost taken over the leaderboard in this respect though, I'm seeing guys in the 90s and higher :rolleyes:

    Glad to have iOS, with my OCD Androids lack of using commas would drive me to insanity

    I find that the total airline value stat is not very meaningful as it takes into account your coins plus I'm not sure what. As you buy more plane slots it goes down.

    What I find more telling is the number of plane slots that you have. Now THAT really shows how "rich" you are.

    Hollywood template: 9 guards to guard a convict. And he escapes.


    OK, ranting time at sadistic Nimblebit (big brother is watching you theme):
    1. I've on PP like 3 times in the last 48 hours. Each time, Jakarta is closed. (As I'm typing this, NY is closed).
    2. I was very active on PP on Thursday, scouring the market for P plane parts (cyclone P body I think). No such luck on Thursday nor Friday nor Sat. And now when the event is going to be over, it comes.

    Calling it wraps for Moscow. Not a lot of time to play over the past couple days, but I've sent some last minute planes over the past hour to crack 1000 jobs at least. Nice to see TA1 in second place again :)

    Does anyone have a second GC running who could check and see how many active in the Moscow event for TA1 right now?

    Faye,

    Do you have a paint job you'd like on your plane?

    I always seem to exel at class 1 events with my little Sea Knight. Probably because a lot of people don't bother, especially as it's only for bux. I have lots of planes feeding jobs to Xi'an and Chengdu, then the Sea Knight running back and forth delivering them. Currently I rank 4th with 90 jobs, as i've literally been going non stop since I woke up this morning! When I slack off i'm sure i'll work my way back down the leaderboard again, but I would love to reach no1! Doubt whether that'll happen...
    Please add me on GC - Geebeeweebles I have a lot of blank ranks on the leaderboard!

    I know exactly what you mean! I play for fun and have loads of airports, I love making unique journeys, instead of going back and forth back and forth!

    I am starting to change my philosophy. Really considering stopping bux operations (currently at 42,000) and just open airports at the farthest point from each other and run a fleet of kangaroos back and forth.

    Haha that sounds like a plan to me. I may do the same.

    Currently I have 30 cyclone M going back and forth. Thinking really thinking of putting out 43 kangaroos minus for my sea knights and Mapple and just letting them fly!

    Instead hubs at the end of the earth I would open a line so to say with the farthest class 1,2 and three airports to also try and get some bux as well.

    Bux collection can be really boring. But it is necessary to build a large fleet ;)
