I want to start in r0, and I have 3 choices for a starter aircraft, the DC-3, the Bristol 170 and the VC.1, which one is best to start with?

VC.1

[Qegamer]

true

VC1 is usually what I chose, DC-3 is discontinued damn near immediately so you can't expand on its capabilities too much and the Bristol 170 has awful fuel flow.

Although all 3 are worse than the CV-240 line, get those ASAP and take care of it. Good reliable short-haul planes that are great for the early game. They eventually get outclassed later on, especially since R0 moves very fast in the beginning, but not until about 1960ish when the Vickers Vanguard becomes available that it truly becomes outclassed in its field.

Its 2013 in this world, so all of them are discontinued.

the VC.1 is superior in every way. the Bristol 170 is a type you'd only want for the oddity of it. the DC-3 is not easy to make money with

VC.1 is faster and more fuel efficient i believe, so it'd be the better choice
