#239117 Anyone want a successful US airline in R3?

Posted by ian_m.03 on 24 June 2017 - 06:18 PM in Airline Takeover / Shared Control Requests

Does anyone else want it? The other user isn't active anymore, I believe.

Ok, you've got it!




#237932 Anyone want a successful US airline in R3?

Posted by ian_m.03 on 02 June 2017 - 11:24 PM in Airline Takeover / Shared Control Requests

Hi. I'm currently managing Air Berlin and Japan Airlines in R4 and I don't have time for this airline so does anyone want it?

Airline: Frontier Airlines

Hubs: DEN

Focus cities: ATL, MKE, PHL, MCO, CVG, COS

Fleet: 737-200, 737-300 (both used) A319, A320 (fairly new airplanes)

In operation for 1 1/2 years

Cash: $217 million

 

If anyone wants it, it's first-come, first serve, so just put your shared control number down and I'll add you. Just two rules if you choose to take it that I want you to follow but can't enforce you on are keep it realistic and don't shut it down if it can be avoided. Also, I'd like the 737-200's off property around 2004 and the 737-300's retired by 2006. Thanks.




#223428 What do I replace my 767-300ER's with?

Posted by ian_m.03 on 10 September 2016 - 12:16 AM in New Players and Questions

In my airline, Midway Airlines, I have 29 767-300ER's delivered between 1991 and 2001, plus 15 767-400ER's delivered between 2001 and 2003. My game world is in 2014, and it ends in a year. My -300ER's have Pratts and my -400's have GE engines. I want to replace the older (1991-1996) -300ER's, which all have winglets, but they're pulling my average fleet age down, plus the maintenance price is getting high. I don't want to buy new -300ER and -400ER aircraft because that's not realistic. What aircraft should I use, in this year, with fuel burn better than 38,000 and realistic capacity that can replace the -300ER's on primarily TATL routes out of PHL, MSP, DTW, and MCO?



#223422 What are small planes best at?

Posted by ian_m.03 on 09 September 2016 - 11:23 PM in New Players and Questions

Well, in my airline, Midway Airlines, I started with Saab 340 aircraft out of BNA to other destinations with low demand. I was able to replicate the success of that in DCA and CMH also. It made lots of profit, but it took a while for cash to build up, so I used F-100 aircraft on longer routes to make more money. So I guess it depends on how much the landing fees are and if there's competition.



#223420 Add VFR to daily demand?

Posted by ian_m.03 on 09 September 2016 - 11:11 PM in Suggestions and Feature Requests

Airports like SDQ and SJU actually have large PPDEW in RL from places like JFK and MIA, is there any way that could be implemented in AE 4?
