    Does anyone else notice flight times increased, or plane speeds decreased?

    Stared off by buying 3 ATR 42-500's - good move or not?

    Also should I spend money on advertising my routes at this early stage?

    Also bought stock in these airlines -

    Frayah Express Airlines
    Rustbucket Airlines
    D'bonair Airlines

    Cheers :D
    Bill

    ATR's seem to be the most popular but i liked the fokker 100's. 107 passengers and 300km/hr faster then the ATR's.

    Advertise for every flight, you wont fill them otherwise. Advertising price fluctuate so be carefull, not to spend when high. Buy fuel @ $400 or $600 whenever you see it at that price.

    Just noticed a "catering" option, anybody do this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,797 ✭✭✭bobcar61


    Yep I bought it,8500 meals to be exact and got the achievement. I don't see the real benefit from it really. You buy each meal for 0.12c for example and sell it for 0.14c so I guess there is a small profit to be had. Each contract only last for a certain amount of time,mine was 11 hours I think.

    All WHU Air planes will be grounded when they land from their current flights unless the price of fuel drops dramatically. Currently -250000lbs but 5.5 million cash on hand. Once fuel hits 400 I will stock up and resume flights. God I hate the price of fuel.

    On the 'Flight' screen, under advertising......

    Agree with you about fuel- its impossible for me to make a profit on a lot of my flights. Realism, I guess.........

    They've applied patch 2, which has changed a few things. From the latest news section:

    Patch 2.0 Released - 2009-11-17
    Today we launched Patch 2.0. So far without any problems.
    Background core rewritten - We optimized alot of the code, to make it run smoother and more stable

    Catering syste - A catering system has been added. You can find catering under "flight", and find more information about it in the faq

    Achievements - New achievements added, and the achievement page redesigned

    Buy Aircraft - Rewrote the code, to optimize the page

    New Route - Now grouped by country. NOTE: This is currently launched as a beta, to determine how the user load will affect the system

    System optimization - Fixed alot of known / and unknown bugs. Hopefully you will all feel the system is getting better.

    Frayah Express has just opened its 4th Base in Darwin Australia.

    Share price will hit 3.00 in the next 24 hours.

    Holding out for additional B787, they should arrive over the ext 24-36 hours


    Frayah Express


    BTW, should we open a second thread, this one is getting rather big.

    just a quick question, does the price of advertising drop ?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 642 ✭✭✭macrubicon

    I picked up billoards for 5k thanks to a post here a day or two ago - bought them forward for a few days to get the best out of the deal!

    It is unfair- I really think there should be a nominal value attached to your fuel reserves (there is in real life after all.....)

    I like the cut of your gib , I have just taken 200,000 shares,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 947 ✭✭✭Shzm


    Right! Gogogo invest in OneWing Airlines.. we really need that second wing ;-)

    Share price is currently at 0.31c with a fleet of 2 737-800s, 4 737-500s and a Vickers Vanguard for a short/high capacity domestic route.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,221 ✭✭✭crisco10


    Update on Leinster Airlines.

    16 Routes.

    1x B737-800
    1x MD80
    1x ATR 72-500
    1x ATR 42-500
    1xA318-100
    1x A340-200
    4x B737-700
    2x B737-700C
    1x Fokker 100 Tay620
    1x ATR 42-400
    2x ATR 42-600

    Adding pretty much an aircraft a day at this stage although may curtail that a little to save up for more A340-200. I like the 737-700 because I can keep it in the air almost 24 hours a day. (Full range flight takes 7.5hours) and it has a reasonably high capacity.

    Share price €0.85 and increases steadily about €0.15 a say. A solid investment for the future!


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 7,146 Mod ✭✭✭✭pistolpetes11


    VIM Ireland,

    get on board when the price is rite ,

    Only started last nite , share price is already at €2.14 on the back of a 150 mil investment.

    I will be picking up a nice new DC10-10 around 12 today

    My share graph looks like everest! Have 'splashed' at least $45M in the last few hours on fuel. Now have 200M lbs. Should keep me flying for a long time. Will keep buying all I can when it next hits $400.
