737-800, United, American

A320-200, Vanilla Air

A330-300 or A320-200, Air China (I can't remember which)




#277899 Cannot create routes in other countries

Posted by Cheapside on 11 July 2019 - 02:53 AM in New Players and Questions

Yeah, I assume running an airline in Australia would require quite a fleet of long range planes, at least until stopovers are a thing in AE.

#278114 Boris Island Airport Design Challenge

Posted by Cheapside on 23 July 2019 - 07:45 PM in Roleplay

After this, all that is needed is to get the Boris administration to use the design. Only possible if one of us has ties to an official, really.

#278682 Average Fleet Age?

Posted by Cheapside on 09 August 2019 - 06:09 PM in General AE Discussion

Just for the sake of comparison, what is your average fleet age?  Mine's is 5 years, and I replace my planes when they are 10 years old.  




#278734 How to know if you're a plane enthusiast.

Posted by Cheapside on 12 August 2019 - 03:30 PM in Off Topic

People wont sit next to you because of it.

 

Random passenger: So how's life

 

Me: You know this was the first prototype of the 747?

 

Random passenger: Oh wow, cool.  

 

Me: It later almost crashed as Northwest Airlines Flight 85 in 2002.  

 

Random passenger: [chilled silence]

 

<whirring noise>

 

Random passenger: Uh, what was that?  

 

Me: Just the flaps retracting after takeoff for the climb.  

 

<Random passenger has left the chat>

#278764 [GAME] Ban the person above you

Posted by Cheapside on 14 August 2019 - 03:51 AM in Off Topic

Banned for banning someone just because they have one of your favorite singers as their profile picture, surely a sign of mutual respect for said singer instead of something malicious, such as copying




#278766 Your longest flight on FS

Posted by Cheapside on 14 August 2019 - 03:58 AM in Flight Simulation

KLAX-KSJC: Delta Air Lines 757-200 (failure, game crashed during approach to KSJC)




#278767 Your favorite North American Airport

Posted by Cheapside on 14 August 2019 - 04:06 AM in AE North America

SFO (International Terminal) but also JFK, mostly because planespotting is kind of a thing at both.  Also, parallel landings.

Banned for not reading everything I wrote




#278776 News

Posted by Cheapside on 14 August 2019 - 03:51 PM in Real World Aviation

Oh goodness, this topic has been dead for ... almost 2 years.  Better revive it then.  

 

  • As the 737 MAX grounding continues through the summer, airlines have turned to 737-200s to service old MAX destinations.  
  • The first Emirates 777X has had it's folding wingtips painted, though the new widebody's situation looks to be worse off now because of the MAX crisis
  • Egyptair's first A220 / CS300 (depends on whether you think it's an Airbus or a Bombardier) has come out of the paintshop about a month ago.  
  • Widespread protests in Hong Kong over an extradition bill have spilled over into Hong Kong airport, forcing the cancellation of all flights through the 8th busiest airport in the world, and a major hub for 2 airlines and their regional subsidiaries

And...

 

I can't compare the MAX 7 to the CS300 at this point.  

 

Well, that's even truer now than before.  One of them is operating well with multiple airlines around the world, albeit under a different name.  The other is grounded.  




#278859 [GAME] Ban the person above you

Banned for banning someone just because you were banning them in your 108th post.  




#278928 Flight Lisbon Auckland

Posted by Cheapside on 21 August 2019 - 03:35 PM in New Players and Questions

You probably would have better chances with Lisbon to Sydney, but even that is over 11 thousand miles, about a thousand miles outside the range of the 777-200LR.  Demand would probably be low too (I've known this from the low demand even from Moscow to Sydney).
