Wingz

I was just checkin out the order book for Airbus, and how exactly does Wingz able to purchase several A380's, when he has no fleet, no cities, and no financial history?

Buying airplanes with no money

I was just browsing the waiting list on the Airbus's and I randomly clicked on Central Airlink's (1702) link to go to their financial page, and to date, they've never made over 12 mil a month.. and it's been going down to 3 mil right now, no airplane sales or anything, just a 737-800 and a 1900D.

How is this guy able to order 8 A320's if he only averages 3 mil a month now?

Something I don't understand about fares

I operate a A340-600 on one of my long haul routes dominated by me, and then Venture comes in with a higher fare and with a smaller plane (and cheaper to operate) and yet I can't turn a profit with any adjusted fare.. I'm not mad that Venture did this, it's just a game and compitition is what makes this game interesting... however I don't understand how a smaller plane can take the majority of traffic with a higher fare.. and I'm speaking of about a 150 dollar difference in fare.. I can see how Venture can operate the cheaper aircraft on the route.. but I can't see how less passengers + higher fare = majority traffic

route statistics

HA I finally come up with a suggestion that has yet to be said!

My DOP went from 1.8 mil back down to 1.6 mil.. so my delima is I haven't the slightest idea which routes I need to fix... so would it be possible to implement a database where an airlines previous routes, LF's, and profits are stored to see what routes are making continuous profits and which routes are fluxuating profits/losses?

something not quite right with routings

I just got my 757 today, I started to place it on routes... but now i took all the routes off of it, so it's available 22 hours and not making any money. The problem is, now I can't even put it on any route, I always get the "Either your aircraft does not have enough time left, range left, blah blah blah".. even on a route that is only 1600 miles.. and the range of my plane is 4000nm!
