#148628 Air Formosa Control

Posted by Keelung on 03 August 2013 - 03:41 PM in General AE Discussion

Yes I did, I'm not even remotely interested :) AE has become a very dull game to me.



#148397 Air Formosa Control

Posted by Keelung on 31 July 2013 - 08:26 AM in General AE Discussion

Air Formosa in O1 guys, not S3A. It's very bloody in O1 and I'm tired of it.




#148112 What's the best replacement for A340-200?

Posted by Keelung on 26 July 2013 - 02:47 PM in New Players and Questions

The Airbus A350-900R is the best option. Considering that both the A340-200 and A350-900® has the same maximum seat count of 420, similar fuel flow at around 40,000, but with the A350-900R flying at a faster speed at 559 and quicker turn-around time of 60 minutes as compared with speed at 476~480 and 90 minutes turn-around time of the A340-200. The closest competitor is the Boeing 787-9 at a lower speed of 497, at a lower price. I don't agree with all the AE aircraft specs, however.

Air Formosa is back on the market. Anyone?




#145985 Air Formosa Control

Posted by Keelung on 28 June 2013 - 02:01 PM in General AE Discussion

I would like to relinquish all control of my airline, Air Formosa. I will not interfere with its future operation but I do have a few requests. Maintain a young fleet, phase out the A330/A340 series, Fokker F-100, MD-88/99ERs and B752s with compatible aircraft. Also, reclaim 75% or more of TPE market share, expand from the rest of the Taiwanese airports and reduce the types of aircraft in fleet. The rest is up to you. Send a private message to me of your ID number. Amateurs are welcome and coaching will be available on request. Good luck!



#145852 If anyone needs a manager I would love to help.

Posted by Keelung on 26 June 2013 - 07:44 AM in General AE Discussion

David22, I would like you to take control of my airline, Air Formosa, if you wish to, permanently. It has 500 aircraft on idle and you will have free reign. However, there are some things I would like you to do if you were to take on this job, replace A310-300s with the 787-8s I have on order with the same configuration, phase out the A340s with 747-8Is and replace 763ERs with A332s. It will be core to maintain a strong foothold in TPE and build on on networks from other Taiwanese airports. The rest is up to you. Thank you and good luck.




#145445 Can't buy used aircraft

Posted by Keelung on 14 June 2013 - 06:14 AM in O1-4 Archive

It may be because someone got the plane before you did.

Monthly and no. 




#144632 Late to Pay the Lease Aircraft

Posted by Keelung on 31 May 2013 - 12:50 PM in New Players and Questions

The system is automatic, you don't have to be awake and make the payments manually. The only reason that you are facing this problem is that your finances does not allow you to pay at the time the lessor requires the payment to be made (you don't have enough money). To manage an airline you need to take into account of all your revenue, expenses, profit and the scheduled payment times. These have to be coordinated to ensure that you have sufficient funds at the time a payment is required thus allowing your airline to remain profitable and also increases credit rating.




#144055 Maintenance costs on A350

Try having the Concorde and you'll know what's maintenance cost.




#143875 Financial Support Mechanisms

This has been brought up already (me again). It will be best if you are to suggest something, please bring up a plan so we can evaluate which one is the best.




#143835 Solution to airport congestion (no gates available)

Posted by Keelung on 23 May 2013 - 03:18 PM in Suggestions and Feature Requests

This idea of charging airlines by the turn around time for using the gates has been suggested (by me actually) quite some time ago. It's under consideration and I think it's one of the solution to the imbalance. Also I have to reiterate again, landing rights/slots have to be separated from gate usage. Please search the forums for my previous posts 'cause I don't feel like typing my idea for the billionth time.




#143787 Financial Support Mechanisms

Posted by Keelung on 22 May 2013 - 02:29 PM in Suggestions and Feature Requests

As I have my SATs and other exams coming up, I haven't found the time to publish my solutions to all these ideas and problems. To add all these new features and fix old ones needs a lot of intricate restructuring of the game so it will resemble the real world closer. Patience man, patience.

I can help, just private message me about which world you want to start in and we will see what we can do.

This will be addressed in AE 4.

It's very restricted and confusing but it can be implemented.




#143063 Aircraft engine types in pending delivery

Just go to the aircraft maintenance page in the airline finance and you can look find them easily.




#143013 Solution to airport congestion (no gates available)

Posted by Keelung on 07 May 2013 - 11:49 AM in Suggestions and Feature Requests

Gates and slots are two different issues. We can use the turn around time to calculate how much should be charged to a single flight.

Posted by Keelung on 05 May 2013 - 08:52 AM in General AE Discussion

How much debt are you into?




#142811 PLUNA Líneas Aéreas Uruguayas S.A - Help me

Posted by Keelung on 05 May 2013 - 08:51 AM in General AE Discussion

Restructuring an airline in AE is easy, it's impossible to go bust unless you are really terrible at this.




#142806 Solution to airport congestion (no gates available)

Posted by Keelung on 05 May 2013 - 03:25 AM in Suggestions and Feature Requests

Like I said on different threads for a countless number of times since this has been brought up repeatedly that the only solution to this is to replace the gate system that we have now that gives you 50 slots when you only need a couple to the system in the real world where international airports or airports with high traffic would have a regulated slots system which you can buy/sell/lease individual slots where one slot can only be used for one flight either arriving or departing. That means you need two slots for a return flight and this might be a tedious task but we can have an automatic slot leasing/procurement system while we are adding flights and it will perform in the same way as the system we have now and this would only apply to the airports with IATA Level 3( Coordinated Airport ) standing http://en.wikipedia....ki/Landing_slot . Applying this in AE4 would free up lots of unused slots and save some insignificant money for the airlines, providing others with the opportunity to expand their operations to these high-traffic airports and allow more competition, with the fundamental aim to make AE more realistic.




#140985 North Korean Airports

Posted by Keelung on 03 April 2013 - 07:22 AM in Asia

I think these airports can be implemented when charter comes around in AE 4.

#140594 Bombardier CRJ-200 Wrong delivery date

Posted by Keelung on 29 March 2013 - 01:39 PM in General AE Discussion

On the Bombardier CRJ-200 Aircraft Information page it says that delivery starts on December 14, 1993 but it actually starts on December 14, 1992:P
