wow that air NZ livery is absolutely beautiful
as for a livery that i don't like:
the character on the tail and the font do it for me
thankfully on some of their planes the yellow rat on the back is replaced with a better-looking logo

Given Javascript and PHP, you're gonna have to tack on about 3 weeks of bug testing and screaming at the machine when your perfectly fine code doesn't ****ing work
Given PHP, it will never work

- Flying a medium-haul jet where a regional jet or prop is better suited is a waste of money.
Sometimes, for high-demand routes to large airports, I feel like a medium-haul jet might save money because it's larger and requires possibly half as many or fewer gate slots. However, I wouldn't really know since I don't really monitor each route's profitability and cost.

not my favorite aircraft, but when I was trying to operate long haul out of MDW, SAT, and SMF, the 747-400D was super helpful because its runway requirement is super low

88 or 89% share @HND in S1 and killed two startups in the process. I had basically exhausted Japan as well with the one hub limit and 10-gate restriction from secondary cities, carrying over 1 million pax a day. Peak DOP was $400m and I left the airline to mininum maintenance after about half way into the round. Got a trophy for #3 valuation and top #10 reputation.
And then there was the Empire-style monster which I broke the game with, never checked market share on that one but got a trophy for #2 valuation.
if you're talking about your recent game in S3-A (where you were continental, a spamline) your market share was easily 100% for the small airports and like 50–75% for JFK, MCO, CLT, etc.

i have never understood where 24 days came from and not 28 for simplicity.
maybe because it makes the real-life days + game years correspond nicely?
5 min/day => 1 real-life day = 1440 real-life minutes becomes 288 days = 12 game months = 1 game year
15 min/day => 1 real-life day = 1440 real-life minutes becomes 96 days = 4 game months = 1/3 game year, so 3 RL days/game yr
20 min/day => 1 real-life day = 1440 real-life minutes becomes 72 days = 3 game months = 1/4 game year, so 4 RL days/game yr
30 min/day => 1 real-life day = 1440 real-life minutes becomes 48 days = 2 game months = 1/6 game year, so 6 RL days/game yr

from what i've heard (i've never operated helicopters before because of this), helicopters are not very profitable especially in comparison to jets

All the calculations are awful and not direct for fuel flow but from various other values. It is per engine. Higher fuel flow = Higher fuel cost.
fuel flow is per aircraft: http://www.airline-e...r-per-aircraft/

if you run your airline well, maintenance costs won't matter. although it might be tricky to make a profit in the US in R4, over time, ordering different aircraft families won't confer that large of an extra cost. the money that you COULD have made by ordering many different families is far greater than the money you save by just ordering one.

...or you could ignore reputation altogether (you're in a sandbox world, so you won't even get any awards) and just not replace your fleet at all. besides, sandbox worlds only run for 20 years, and i've run 25-year-old aircraft without any problems. focus on getting new planes and establishing new routes instead.
