Ok, this is a question for the major airlines in the game (Venture, Rubber Chichen, RGB) were you guys in version 1.0 and, if you were, how did your airlines do?

eight replies and still no clear answer:P

What I mean is things like:

Did you declare bankruptcy?

How far in dept did you go?

How large were you?

btw, Miller- There has been a lot of charrter on a reset lately, anything I don't know?

Yes, about 5 times, and many times with the subsidiaries. Started late, and had to fight like hell to catch the big boys because all good gates were taken.

Not too far, but realised that monthly expenses were too big, and declared when it was clear I was going backwards.

From memory had about 400 planes. Tried to start in South America, so opportunies were limited.

I thought I was an alpha tester instead of a cheater, as many of the bugs I found and described have been fixed.

I was in V.1. I had a HUGE hub out of ALB. I flew all over Europe with my 319s. I made tons of money. Finally in V2 i decided to move to EWR, faced the competition but am still #2.

I started late in V.1, so most of the gates were already taken. However, by that point the bigger airlines were selling cheap DC-9-30s, which helped a lot (no luck there in v.3 though...). Eventually made it to about 18th place or so, at probably about half of my current size.

As for your other questions, I have never declared bankruptcy, and my highest debt has been several hundred mil.
