#36558 Next Scheduled Reset

Posted by Calum on 06 August 2006 - 01:43 PM in Announcements

of course the 4th and most definate possibility is that he actually has a life ( me being jealous ) and just doesnt have the time at the moment , its only the day after he said it was going to be , and everyone acts like the game needs to be restarted ASAP.

#34871 Fatal Error during aircraft change

Posted by Calum on 08 June 2006 - 05:34 PM in Bugs

I think TW is tinkering before he restores that previous backup file he talked about.

Either he will get the month change sorted back to normal when he restores the old game data from a couple of days ago , or today in AE we will have a 35 or so hour day , until the usual month change time tommorow , and then it will sort itself out.

#33815 GlobalGate Services ... Gate and Airport News

Posted by Calum on 15 May 2006 - 08:57 AM in Airline Press Releases

do you have enough money to order a minimum of 10 A330's at a time?


I dont need to , perhaps Lease is the wrong word to use but the way its going to work has already attracted 2 customers.

Mateship & other factors could be deployed to make others suffer with all gates taken off the market and retained by a Non-Playing Broker


No worries here either , i sell my gates to anyone who wants them , and aircraft are all sold on / bought from the used market , for anyone to buy. I personally dont make special deals with players i know or anything like that , if i think there proposition is worth my while ( like Songs was ) , then i go for it and do my best to make something from it.

Its actually the other way round , airlines keep coming to me , and then come back again , regarding the gates i have. I make lots of new customers quite often , so its them that decide to deal with me , i dont chase any airline asking if they want gates , unless they came to me first and ask specifically.

others suffer with all gates taken off the market and retained by a Non-Playing Broker.


I do my best not to keep the gates for any longer than i need to , as soon as i gain them , i am updating the classifieds looking to sell them on straight away , and seeing as i dont run an airline with any routes or aircraft ( except certain routes on month change hour ) , then i only make any profit by doing the gate and aircraft transactions with other players.

I feel this is fair , if i was actually running an airline making profit , AND was trying to sell all these gates , making profit there as well , then that would be unfair , but i just do the gates and other airlines aircraft instead , and i think i charge very fair prices , for some gates at least.

Thanks

GlobalGate Services is pleased to announce ,

This evening , on the same day as GGS launch , the company confirmed it has just dealt with one of the biggest Airlines in AE ...

Earlier today in Chicago O'hares airport ( ORD ) Song Airlines was happy to show press what the result of talks between the established airline and GlobalGate Services was .... a brand-new terminal !

GlobalGate played some part in this event , but Song Airlines will be making its own press release soon about this development , the first of its kind that has been accomplished by an airline and a dedicated ( and the first ) Gate and Aircraft Lease Service.

Please check out Songs Press about its ORD Terminal.

Thanks

#33783 Lease Specialists GlobalGate LAUNCH !!

Airline Empire's very first major , fully-dedicated , impartial , Gate and Aircraft Lease Service ( GALS ) has been un-veiled this evening across the European and American continents.

GlobalGate Services , the new re-brand of Euromanx / AtlasAir , now trading under the AtlasAir name in AE is now officially open for business.

GlobalGate is understood to be the first fully-dedicated company that is a business network for airlines right across AE. Soon to be offered by GlobalGate Services ( GGS ) is :

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Airport expansion for Airlines in AE ( terminals , ect )

Letters Of Intent ( to buy aircraft ) for Airlines in AE

A vast Gate network , always changing , constant buying and selling of Gates usually difficult to find in AE for any Airline of AE that wants them ( for the going rate of pay )

A much more active Used aircraft market , as GlobalGate will buy the smaller , harder-to-sell aircraft to cover its gates during month-change ( which is approved by TW ) , and sell them on if needed. For airlines stuck trying to sell small prop aircraft , this will allow them to expand if there aircraft are bought quicker , and so making the game more competitive in some markets.

Exchange service of gates / aircraft for other gates / aircraft , just like real-world. Not just money , this will come as good news for the smaller airlines not yet established as successful carriers.

And constant development of these services and more.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Airlines , please check the Classifieds section shortly for the new topic on GGS latest gates ( please note the topic gets edited very often , and is the most up-to-date representation of what GGS currently has for sale.

For people interested in GGS launch and structure ( the way we do business ) , please contact me via PM and i can help.

I hope you all enjoy and try this service , GSS has already attracted many customers and is proud of its reputation and to serve all AE airlines.

We look forward to doing business with you

Recent American start-up AtlasAir has announced it has aquired funds to re-structure the airlines operations just 7 months after launching operations. The ACMI leaser , previously owning 2 Saab2000s with one on delivery , has cancelled , with both current fleet being returned to lessors ( for sale ). Also stations at JFK , GLA will be renovated , and a more focussed route structure put in place.

It was announced today , that AtlasAir has negotiated a deal with small-prop manufacturer Dornier , for at least 2 delivery-quality D328s. AtlasAir has identified this type as one that best suits them for future growth and economics long-term.

Posted by Calum on 19 April 2006 - 05:29 PM in Bugs

#32082 Temporarily Closed?

Posted by Calum on 18 April 2006 - 05:01 PM in Bugs

An updated "monthly" script, will run faster, limit aircraft deliveries so that no airline will recive more than 5 airframes from any one manufacturer. Also limit so that manufacturers will only deliver 20 airframes (plus 10% of the queue) in total.


there we go hehe , me was wrong :)

#32074 Temporarily Closed?

Posted by Calum on 18 April 2006 - 04:35 PM in Bugs

still the same i believe Jackny ,

game has been running since a little before 18:15 yesterday night. and so eiter day change will be on the hour at 18:00 ( 27 mins or so ) , or it will be at 18:15 ( when game got reset yesterday ). Still is 1 hour per day i am sure.

So i beleive its going to be a new month change in 27 mins or so.
