    Muuuahahaaahaaaa

    Some of the Roos took a vacation. I have a swarm of Aero's and a fleet of sequoia's / Cyclones feeding. Want to hit 10K to complete the trifecta!

    I think there are still 20~ Roos working though.

    Other than their aesthetic appeal, they're completely useless: they lose money on EVERY flight other than between London and Paris.

    I just got back to playing this game and the more I think this game badly needs a big update.

    They have some use as Bux hunters thks to their speed and huge range.
    Assuming you haven't a plane Bux sitting in each airport, and are more interested in Bux than coins (if not, you should :D).
    If you see a high Bux job or a mystery part in an airport where you don't have a plane, just Bux boost the empty starship to this airport. As it's super fast, it should only cost 1 Bux. And load immediately the 9 Bux job or the MP.
    ;)

    Gonna attempt 10k this event. And I will do it with 5 planes. 3 Aeroeagle in NY and 2 Seqouia in Chicago feeding.

    Wish me luck.

    Assuming I fly 8 hours today and 12 hours for the remaining 3 days of the event I need to do 18.93 jobs per refresh and never miss one. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say it can't be done the way I am doing it..

    Need to revamp.

    So that like 30 minutes I managed to stay in the top 10 is probably the best i'll ever do on this game. I just don't know how you guys pull some of the numbers you do :(

    I wonder if now that we have a starship event will there be a Concorde and C130 event in the near future?

    Which also makes me think there will be an update and some new planes shortly

    Something Useful

    A Sea Knight comes to mind. A C-130 would be cool though!

    My thoughts exactly. They seem to be handing out more full planes lately. Makes me think a new batch of planes is coming soon.

    I also wish bux events were dependent on the number of jobs you did.

    Maybe have certain tiers.

    Over 50 - 25 bux
    Over 250 - 40 bux
    Over 500 - 100 bux
    Over 1000 - 250 bux
    Over 2500 - 500 bux
    Over 5000 - 750 bux
    Over 10000 - 1500 bux

    Or perhaps just a 10 bux per 100 jobs. Would make those events more fun....

    Oh and I want a dam mapple event too!
