Quick question. If I have a full plane (all Calgary destinations) does that count as 1 trip or 3?

We're pretty close to dropping out of the top 10...

I have a couple questions that I cant find answers for online.
What does upgrading and advertising airports do?
At what levels do the better planes become available?
I'm currently level 4 and haven't spent any Buxs. Should I keep saving my Buxs until the better planes become available?
How does the leaderboard work? Is this how many completed jobs to Calgary for the chemical spill?

thank you!

Just be careful when picking up new jobs. I'm stuck with a layover in Vancouver for someone who wants to go to Berlin.

Got up to level 8 last night, time to start focusing on getting some more blue cities and going for longer range flights.
Did they mention anything about the cheat?

We will find out soon. I'm trying to help out a bit but only have one plane between Van-Cgy-Edm and sitting at 8 jobs.

1. Don't spend the money yet.
2. Wait til you can purchase some 3 seaters. I built my first few planes with parts I found in new cities. Keep a close eye on parts when they update!
3. Spend if you need the planes but don't buy or upgrade 1 seaters and don't upgrade 2 seaters.
4. Yes that's what the crew has completed so far.

6th place now. I don't think we'll get any higher as 5th place is almost 5 times our number.

Hey, as long as we're in the top 10 I'm happy. No way we're going to get first anyways.

Bigtime what's the secret? I didn't get a chance to play tonight and go and check out the standings and you're kicking ass.

This sounds like a more interesting game than Tiny Tower. I gave up on that pretty quickly, because it was no Sim Tower like I had hoped. I played a Facebook game kind of like Pocket Planes called Aviator, until it started demanding I get 20 of my friends to play or spend money to advance.

Your guys excitement makes me want to play. Supposedly this is coming out for Android "soon," but I'll admit that for half a second I wondered how cheap I could find a used Touch...

I'm guessing he either is even more addicted to this than I originally guessed, or he's helped himself along with some purchased bux.

I'm really impressed at the surge we had in the event this afternoon. We jumped up real fast and now have a solid hold on 6th. Great work everyone.

Looks like the next mission is in Brisbane. Going to be tough for me to get there. I may have to close some north American airports and open some near Brisbane. Good good cp on the sixth place finish.

Wow, good work guys!

I had to take a whole day break today and man you guys went crazy. Although the prizes seem more weak now. A P-40 airplane and 10 bucks?
