    Reporter: This is Shep Hancock, live at the TA1ville airport. I'm here will Miss 'Zoo.

    Reporter: Miss 'Zoo, it has come to our attention that you've started a campaign to tie 100 yellow ribbons 'round plane wings, can you explain what's driven you to such drastic measures?

    Miss 'Zoo: Why certainly. Bido is coming home he's done his time. And the good ole folks of TA1ville need to let him know that he belongs here. And the best way for us to show our support is 100 yellow ribbons tied 'round plane wings.

    Reporter: Do you expect to see Bido on the leader board?

    Miss 'Zoo: YES! I'm sure he'll be back in style. Now Shep, I really must finish tying these ribbons...and with your help...I'll be back to flying in no time!

    Reporter: Um...well of course...here let me finish that for you. This is Shep Hancock signing off for TA1ville Times.
    as Miss 'Zoo climbs into her spiritedly colored Aeroeagle, Shep mumbles to himself...how does she do that? I just can't say no to her...laughs and begins tying more yellow ribbons.

    Never had that problem, sorry :(
    If I were you I'd try to re-install PP I guess...
    Or try to buy stuff you can see till you get to the Aero parts ;)

    I only got 10 Aero-M's I use myself atm, but I'll try to buy parts whenever I see some and send them to you as whole planes as soon as I got one...currently I got 3 engines :rolleyes:
    (I don't need anything in exchange...got every rare plane so far at least 1 time and loads of mapples/Seq's etc. ;) )

    I've delivered 1600 Jobs so far and of those, 32 were mystery parts. Thats a 1 in 50 rate amongst those delivered, though my strategy is specifically catered to mystery part accumulation so my stats are likely not representative to the whole

    Ok... I'm going to send you the parts you requested (if i have a Concord engine) and your 2 aero back. I wasn't real specific so i can see how my post might have been read and interpreted differently than what i intended.

    For all other Android users, if you want to trade let me know what you want for a group of 15 to 20 aero m.

    EDIT...I sent you back your aero m and also the c 130 eng. I'm going to leave it at that considering the c130 part is probably the equivalent of 10 aero m full planes by itself.

    Theory in another thread suggests it's a bug in the forum that prevents it from recalculating the number of topic pages after a large number of posts are deleted.

    Dear Nimblebit,

    Having a Game Convention in New York when the global event is a Gaming Convention in Boston is just going to confuse dizzy blondes like me, especially those using New York as a holding bay for those going to Boston.

    Thank you,
    Becky

    Yup I wasn't paying attention and fully loaded my event cargo sequoia with New York jobs not Boston and sent it on its way this morning. I was slightly puzzled it was making a profit and even more confused when it landed and I found an empty plane :confused:

    Had my coffee now so am watching out for the blue jobs not the normal ones

    I can send you some AE-M parts as they come along. I don't really need any of the trade items, so I'll just send them.

    I haven't encountered that kind of glitch. Mine tends to freeze up while loading/unloading planes and then can't populate the plane or loading lists until I restart the game. Since a great deal of the game involves loading and unloading planes, it's really irritating.

    I get the same glitch really often, especially in the last few weeks my game freezes a lot, it's really annoying :mad:
    A few points I observed when that happens:
    - it happens to me only when the airport where I load/unload has a lot of layovers, starts at between 20-40
    - only happens when I try to load/unload the whole plane at once (holding the button), if I do it job by job it works, sometimes the job lists freezes at 1 job too, thou I can continue playing with exiting the job list and opening it again as not the whole game froze.

    Sadly I haven't found a reliable solution yet, one thing I'm trying at the moment is to scroll the job list to the very end and wait till all jobs are loaded before loading/unloading a whole plane.
    If I scroll too fast I get to blank jobs sometimes which I have to wait for till they appear, takes about half a second.
    My theory is that if you scroll trough the list till you see the first job to load/unload and hold the button it tries to access jobs further down the list which haven't loaded yet and glitches.
    Works so far for me, thou it needs further testing ;)

    Hey android buddies, im experiencing the freezing as well. One work around I've found that seems to work, if the airplane I'm unloading has an empty spot, ill load a piece of cargo, then unload the plane and it usually doesn't freeze. I'll try the idea too of scrolling the entire list first. It's very annoying though, makes city meets extremely hard.

    Android glitch

    Well, I guess the Android freezy glitch isn't just me. Bummer that! It's good to read everybody's strategies and theories. I have learned to never ever ever do a 'load/unload all" on the first item, then I can see if the list is freezing, and back out and get back in if needed. I was starting to wonder if it had to do with the number of layovers, so I'll keep a careful eye on that. Unload the waiting planes one at a time, instead of 6 at once.

    I'm like you 3, my screen freezes. One thing I've been trying is to unload/load all in a different spot on the screen and it seems to work. In other words if on my screen it shows
    5 passengers at a time. If i press the 2nd or 3rd passenger it freezes a lot if I can remember to press the 4th or 5th passenger it doesn't happen as much. What kind of phone do you 3 have, optimus elite-v here. Also are any of you having the parts problem?

    Spineth/Squallid I sent you guys a bunch of parts, thanks for the help!

    I noticed that some of the passenger jobs for the game convention (can't remember if they were Boston or NY-bound) were characters from "The Incredibles". Nice touch, Nimblebit!

    fantasyicon, I haven't seen the parts problem myself, I'm on a GS3. I'm trying to figure out what happened between you and yitzc77, but I'll gladly send you free aero m's as I find them.
