Helicopter Repair Base and Helicopter Fleet Reliability

[Captain WH Rollins]

Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen (Friday 15th December 2017 11.10am BST London)

My luck continues with my small fleet of sparrow helicopters - have just completed 70 flights (since the game update) and with just four broken helicopters, quickly repaired, doubt it will last long.

My luck continues with my small fleet of sparrow helicopters - have completed 100 flights and with just twenty broken helicopters, quickly repaired. It will not be the same with the Crossbill helicopter, that will prove to be a real headache.

On my support account the Sparrow's have only broken down a couple of times. Since I don't have room for the repair base I just dropped them and bounght new ones!
On my main account , I'm in a quandary. I've 3 starred all the sparrow destinations (apart from the the crazy 80 * 8 hour training flights. That's going to take a while I've kept one sparrow dedicated to that task)
So I bought a crossbill. But now I don't have space to build a mechanical shop for the parts for it. I'm thinking to sell the resource base to make space I have enough of the items saved up for now. It's only 150 coins to rebuild it. Am I missing something?

Yes Crossbill H will be more headache not for repairing only also for the items you need to fly this will take long time to save these items and you need thousands of them so before you start flying better to save these items from now.

Yes, you are quite right - have been saving since the new helicopter update. This is going to take a great deal of time and patience.

Ah, Now my mechanical base is completed,I see what you mean.
Each if the items requires two different items from the repair base. Damn will need to buy it again and find some space for it.

My one and only Crossbill helicopter has so far proved to be very reliable with eight completed flights and as yet no breakdowns. Very odd this has not proved to be the case for other forum members.

Yes, you are quite right, it is to be expected. Things always start of easy and then become more difficult, it is the way the game is.

Niagara falls and Rideau falls in this 2 the real headache breakdown a lot and you need a lot of flight items.

Have completed 21 Crossbill helicopter flights - not one brakedown or any gift item drops. It is going to be a very long process.

The last three cities the difficult (break down and get fly items) in crossbill.
Good luck

My fleet of 3 Crossbill helicopters has proved to be very reliable with 45 flights and only one breakdown, replaced with a new helicopter. There are also good flight drops, but non of the gift items do I need.

had 1 that broke down each flight, sold it and bought another, broke down after 15, not flying at the moment though

I am also facing the same..

 

[Captain WH Rollins]

My fleet of 3 Crossbill helicopters have proved to be quite reliable with 108 flights and so far only four breakdowns. The gift items from helicopter drops are of not much use.

Yeah, I think Crossbill is more reliable than Sparrow. I have 60 Crossbill' fligths and never breakdown at all. Sparrow: 20 flights and 5 breakdowns. Think to sell my sparrow.
