#266000 What is your favorite aircraft in the game?

Posted by Max Devo on 14 March 2018 - 01:44 AM in General AE Discussion

Il-18 for relatively early games. Capacity of a 737-200 with a whole lotta range and impressive fuel efficiency.

#264666 What are the most clever airline names?

Posted by Max Devo on 23 February 2018 - 03:57 AM in General AE Discussion

I don't want to oFFENd anyone

 

This is 2018. Everyone is going to take offense to something. There are things that should indeed never be said, but joking about Greece's debt isn't one of them. That's actually kind of harmless, and actually funny. And while I may be an American, I don't get offended by jokes about how stupid or backwards my country or its citizens are. I laugh alongside them. Make an airline about incompetence and obesity, start it in the US. It's all the same.

 

People should be able to take hits like Greece takes bailout money.

I am greek and tbh what you created is offensive and triggering. Consider yourself very lucky that I don't care to report you and your "airline".

 

Learn to take a joke, pansy.

 

 

Since the airline name has offended you, I'll change the name. And I won't keep posting with "yeps" and "yups" if that's what you want.

 

Don't give in to one user's BS.




#264154 What do you think is the hardest country to operate out of?

Posted by Max Devo on 17 February 2018 - 11:22 PM in General AE Discussion

South Ossetia - State-ish (None)
SADR - State-ish (None)
State of Palestine - State-ish-but-less-ish-than-others (4 Nonoperational Airports)

 

Another state-ish: Transnistria. They have a non-operational airport in Tiraspol (LU0T).

 

Also for all the people saying North Korea: No, it is not the worst country to operate out of. It is possible to make work. It's a matter of playing your cards right. I've run four iterations of Air Koryo from there, each more successful than the last.




#264151 Have you ever scrapped an aircraft?

Posted by Max Devo on 17 February 2018 - 11:10 PM in General AE Discussion

Yeah, one of my really big airlines back in the day ran Ilyushin Il-62Ms and ran them into the ground. By the time I decided to replace them they had depreciated so far that I would get more cash by scrapping them than selling. About 30 Il-62s went under the chopper that day.

 

Made $20K from each.

#263407 [DUPLICATE, MERGED] Various Business Jets

Posted by Max Devo on 09 February 2018 - 09:48 PM in New Aircraft Requests

Basically we have this rule for adding planes in AE - They must be, or have been, operated by a scheduled commercial airline. So you'd have to show us that all of those have been or are operated on scheduled routes. 

 

Also non-Wikipedia sources pls and thank




#263395 Douglas DC-7C

Posted by Max Devo on 09 February 2018 - 08:11 PM in General AE Discussion

All aircraft are profitable. 

 

And then there's the Tu-144.

You basically summed it up.

#263286 What's the biggest monopoly you've had?

Posted by Max Devo on 08 February 2018 - 02:54 AM in General AE Discussion

Monopolized Hungary once, North Korea several times over, and got very close in China.

 

There's a user here who makes an airline called "The Empire" and proceeds to completely take over the game world with himself and feeder airlines. He is the lord of spam, to be feared and vilified. No, just vilified.

#263134 What is the easiest country in AE?

Posted by Max Devo on 06 February 2018 - 06:23 PM in General AE Discussion

How does one go about "using connecting pax"? When I play I research my intended routes, see the demand for a given route and deploy aircraft based on the demand given. Normally I will also join an alliance too.

 

Connecting pax show up if one of your routes connects with that of an alliance member's. They'll fill up some empty seats but they seem to get discounts.

#263101 What are the most clever airline names?

There's an airline in one of the R worlds called "Do U Kno Da Wae".

 

Ugandan Knuckles cannot be stopped.




#263085 What is the easiest country in AE?

Posted by Max Devo on 05 February 2018 - 11:32 PM in General AE Discussion

I was playing a small world and Russia only had 1 airline. Thats a lot domestic demand without any competition.

 

There's comparatively few domestic routes in Russia when you put it up against China, the EU, and the US, at least profit-wise. No matter which way you look at it, the money-makers are in a tiny area with St. Petersburg, Saratov, and Krasnodar at the edges. Most of the domestic airports are way far apart and very small--you'll be running A310s once a week out of them.

 

By comparison, you could make hundreds of billions just from hub-and-spoke routes entirely within China, never going international. Same could go for the US, if it wasn't already over-saturated.




#238067 Why are Soviet aircraft unprofitable on AE

Posted by Max Devo on 05 June 2017 - 03:55 PM in General AE Discussion

I make a killing with 134s, 86s, and 154Ms.




#237999 Are Bots allowed / used?

Posted by Max Devo on 04 June 2017 - 02:59 AM in General AE Discussion

Ok. If this is not allowed - who is the admin? Someone is clearly using a "software solution". 

 

We are all the Admin. The Admin lives through us, and we live through the Admin. The Admin's judgement is true. The Admin's judgement is divine. The Admin will make our game into an empire. May he flow into you.

 

 

 

 

It's Yuxi.
