The biggest problem is the LF bug and the one-way issue, if these were working correctly then you would not have this situation.

But you are wrong. This has nothing to do with the LF bug. Kevin and other airlines routes would not be trashed so bad if people were not putting 350-500 seat aircraft on a route that doesn't have the demand for it. At least when runway lengths are implemented, this will solve some of the problems with that. It would be even better if there would be a minimum range on the high capacity aircraft.

Come on guys, we really need to start picking on people?

All honesty, Laytex has played well enough to deserve our respect and admiration for growing the airline as she did and with all the bugs and problems which came apparent during this current game. I too got hit on routes with A330-300s, B747-400Ds, etc but i have hardly complained on the forums. I may not appreciate it, but its a game and in a game, these things happen.

I reckon its more a psychological problem.. if u cant succeed, blame the person at the top for ur failure to succeed... Then again, some of us, know how to get beyond urself and realise, a game is just a game. Nothing more and less.

I don't see why Latex is getting picked on. Everyone that can afford it seems to be doing the same thing. If you have more money than midas, build a terminal, drop some a333's on domestic hops and clean up. I haven't seem anyone use unreasonable ticket prices; just the combination of aggressive prices and a large aircraft sucks up all the passengers.

This is the way of the market place. These guys have earned their money. If they are throwing off more cash than reasonable, it is the game mechanics, not anything personal (there may be exceptions). At the end of the day, there should only be a few players standing. For the total populations enjoyment, I hope the game is reset before that point (because once i am forced out of a game, I want to start the next one) but it is the nature of the competive environment this game encourages.

But still, people will always be ready to start pointing fingers and complaining because at the end of the day, they couldnt handle a bit of competition...

Jack, I don't know about you, but the A330s on the short routes are ridiculous. I don't have a problem with Laytex on some routes because either she puts planes on those routes that make sense or the A330s actually make sense on those routes.

You are right Kevin, how is it now with the one ways back in play?

I haven't noticed any of the A330 being replaced but it may take a few days for players to reorganize and replace. I got out of a lot of those routes, so it wouldn't be as obvious as when they are first placed on a route of mine and my DOP would go negative.

On the other hand, I haven't gotten wacked with the A330's since the change.

[LeipeLimbo]

hm dont forget the "BIG" airlines make enough money to buy/order any frame they like .. and with 1 way routes fixed before monthchange ......... my guess is the workers at AE's Boeing and Airbus plants made huge overtime so maybe they dont even need to replace .. And i wonder what will happen with all those hours left after a 1-way route ??

[BarbulaM1]

A330s I use on short routes cause they have little hours left and can add them easly to short routes.
