Cool thanks so replacing aircraft every 15ish years is good.

 

 

What about how the maintenance costs are calculated?

#205511 Maintenance Costs and aircraft replacement

Posted by TraceG on 09 November 2015 - 12:59 AM in New Players and Questions

Okay so i have a couple of questions about Maintenance costs and the replacement of aircraft 

 

1)First does anyone know at what rate the maintenance costs of each individual aircraft increases?

I know the longer you have it the more it increases but at what rate

 

 

 

2)And is there a specific point at which it's becomes un-affordable to keep an aircraft and it should be replaced?

Some people say they replace their aircraft once they reach 7 or 10 years old, but is that just to keep the fleet young? or is this when the aircraft become overly costly to operate?




#205510 sell or scrap aircraft in no lease challenge??

Posted by TraceG on 09 November 2015 - 12:17 AM in New Players and Questions

I was just wondering if its better to sell or scrap aircraft in the no aircraft lease challenge.

Yes you will generally get more money form selling it, but this also means the cheaper old aircraft are available for the competition to grow.

 

Is it better to just scrap them, stop the competition from gaining cheap aircraft?




#204937 Incorrect Aircraft Information

Posted by TraceG on 18 October 2015 - 10:48 PM in Suggestions and Feature Requests

I have noticed on the no leasing challenge world that  number of facts about some of the aircraft re wrong.

 

Such as the max payload range og the 777-200ER being 9,371 nautical miles when it's actually 7,065 nautical miles, It's the same with the 777-200LR too. 

 

And the A350-900 has the exact same seating capacity as the A350-100. How can this be when the -1000 is a stretched variant.

#196515 IFS Making no difference

Posted by TraceG on 09 April 2015 - 07:02 AM in New Players and Questions

Hi I have noticed even with a 5 star IFE in all classes and well above average reputation in general that it all makes very little difference to the load factor when theirs competition 

 

Eg my route HKG-CDG is only operated by me and one other airline and they dropped their price $10 below mine, their IFS and reputation is in the red and mine is in the high green. They took all my customers

 

What is the point of having the better service.
