Will the A350 XWB and the B787, be in the version 3 or better yet, during this new RESET? The basic stats of the airframes are available and it would be nice to see how they would fair in the sim.
Also the 747NG would be nice to see. I was able to really see the benefits of the A380 this round, be nice to see how the other would fair.

If i remember correctly from what TW said, all those planes are comin in V3. As for the reset..I personally doubt it..but if he brought back BAE Systems...who knows what he might do.

What I dont get is why people dont think logicially about these planes? The A300/A310/BAe146/AVRO RJ etc are all economically a disaster with 200X prices (I think 2004 is the best year that AE represents) and if you brought in older planes the costs should be very high. Meaning that they should just collecting dust, but as always a few people will operate them.

People use the A300 and A310 cause of range benefits (You were there for the discussion on the IRC) and the BAE 146s/Avros are used for one: experimenting, two: they like em. As for me..I've made a vow...never to use any of those planes again (effective next round) ;)

I didn't say the numbers were good, just it would be interesting to see some.

Plus, this is my first round. and on paper the Avro/146 numbers don't look bad. In practice though... Lets just say, they both are in my inventory this round. They won't be in the next. Neither will ERJ for that matter.

I love using the 753´s. As for the BAE´s, they increased my revenues but not my profits due to the cost per hour. Which is good for increasing market share. The A310 is only good (for me at least) for longest posiible round trips in the which surpass the A332´s due to their turn around time.

The A350XWB was only unveiled a couple of weeks ago. The only Stats I have seen is the pax number and '8% lower seat cost to the 787 and 20% better than 777', which is not really a stat.

Neither are the 717, anything from BAE, Saabs, the imfamous Beeches, and the A380 isn't in service yet. So? Doesn't stop these people ....;)

Yet, they are being bought up in the real-life use market as fast as they come available.

With the outrageous prices on scrap metal(thanks in a large part to the Chinese government buying everything that isn't nailed down) I'll bet there is more than 10k worth of Al in the airframe alone.
