Generally, 10-20 years is best for buying replacements. Every month, the maintenance cost of a plane slightly increases, so when a plane hits 40 generally, it is no longer profitable. I do know certain aircraft like the Bristol Brittania, Canadair Cl-44 and Tupolev Tu-114 can virtually go on forever if you want them to, but the 707, 757 and any other replacement (Il-62 for Eastern Bloc) are more profitable over time.

Thanks!

How do you know when an aircraft is getting too old? Is there any metric for deciding when to retire an old aircraft? And how does the game 'punish' you for using a very old aircraft? Any info is appreciated. Thanks!
