In Topic: Need Advice for What Planes to Buy

Ended up selling the An-2 (turns out it was causing me to lose money). I've now got enough money to lease quite a few more DC-7s, DC-6s and Viscount 700Ds. Thanks for the advice!

So basically don't get the Tu-144 and get stuff in the same family as the DC-7. Also, I was not going to get the 747 because I heard someone say that it had high fuel consumption, but nvd. And isn't Iran Air getting some Tupolevs of some kind or another (can't remember which one just right now)? Anyhow, thanks for the advice (not sarcastic in case anyone is thinking that)!

For some reason my R3 Iran AIr airline dropped down to $-10,499,052 and the R1 Iran Air has dropped AGAIN for about the third time to 975,681 and I'm don't know why this is happening at all. If anyone has any ideas can they please give me some advice? Thanks!

Thanks guys! Took your advice and the situation seems to be improving a little. Cut the reserves for staff and now using up those aircraft hours somewhat more efficiently. Plan to lease some used Aerospatiale Caravelle Is to replace the Tupolev Tu-104 (not sure why I bought it anyways), and sell the Tupolev. Is this a good idea in your opinion?

EDIT: Fuel flow is the thing that shows fuel consumption right?

Now my other Iran AIr in the R3 world seems to be slipping down the road of bankruptcy as well (its the one with a capital "I" in "AIr"). I'm not too sure what is happening, though I have a hunch that its something to do with gate leases or something of the sort. Some advice please?
