    Faye was right, this Bux sitting is really boring. I've gained about 1000 BUX today but is it worth it....

    Changing my airline name to "Air France" soon...just can't shake the addiction. Also, the plane list view shows one more plane (on one screen without scrolling) on the Mac than it does on iOS. What does android version show?

    I LIKE IT...MAPPLES VS ROOS!

    Thanks Merlion I appreciate the response.
    Penguin how do you get the time to keep posting while you are playing? Also should I bring all mapples out for this event or seq m and mapples?

    It's ok now. For some reason it was showing a page but wouldn't let me access it so I thought there was an issue. Disregard.

    Sequoia vs fogbuster? The FBs are much faster with pretty much the same range, the FB weighs 8, holds 8. The sequoia weighs 10, holds 10. Is there some hidden stat on the planes? My sequoias will make about 12k off of a fully loaded LA to Tokyo flight, but my FBs only make like 6K off the same flight! I know 2 extra passengers is not enough to make up another 6,000$. So what's the consensus? Fogbusters or sequoias?

    Its mainly down to the speed of the plane, the Sequoia is slower so you get more profit because of that and also the 2 extra passengers. As for which one to choose its up to you and your strategy, if your going for cash and profit and don't care too much about how long it takes for planes to get to there destination then Sequioas are good.
    However if you want to rush jobs to airports quicker and get more jobs done a day then the higher speeds of the Fogbuster will work for you.

    Personally I couldn't get the Fogbusters to work for me and quickly relegated them to the hanger and I use a majority of Sequoias but have now got some Cyclones partly for the range but also for the speed.

    Another thing which you may know already but i'll say anyway if you reduce the weight of the plane then your profits go up again but increasing the speed decreases them

    Ok so the market is being particularly annoying today. Am trying to get more parts to expand my Seq-M fleet and the market is either not showing any or is coming up with bits I already have :mad:

    Thats what i'm waiting for too! At least I feel a little better knowing i'm not the only one who its annoying. Still waiting too, have seen 4-5 controls and 6-7 bodies but no engines. Obviously too many parts went out for the global event prizes last month and the factories haven't caught up with the backlog :)

    Every now and then I get all 26 in the air and have 2 or 3 minutes to check the forums lol.

    I have 8 in Cairo, 9 in Lagos, and 9 in Kinshasa. Everything fully upgraded and advertising.

    I had to get started late last night and so I took this approach: Ive had tehran, lagos, and kanasha open and upgraded so I have 4 mapples each there. Then I'm also running 1seq m each collecting event and bux for lon/par, rio/sao, ny/chi, & mum/kar. L/p and ny/chi are dropped in lagos, rio/sao dropped in kanasha and mum/kar dropped in the. The last 3 I'm using seq m run around and collect and drop the bux in lon and par. Only got about an hr in so far and about 165 jobs. Nothing close to you :) but obviously you have an awesome boss that let's you play a lot!

    Been having fun trying this. Currently have 157 delivered rank 22 atm.

    I have to give a big thanks to Dinyctis (GC name) for sending me so many parts to build planes ( enough for 9 aeros and 3 cyclones.)

    Running from honolulu, LA, NY, London, Cairo and Al Fashir.
