I might be dumb, but there is something I am wondering about already for ages. I try to understand how you can fly 2M pax week after week. I did some simple calculations.
Assume you fly only condors. To fly a condor, you need 60 fuel. To speed it up, 110 fuel. My guess is that you need to speed up all flights to reach 2M pax a week. So, every condor flight needs 170 fuel. You carry 750 pax with one condor flight, so to fly 100k pax, you need 133.33 condor flights, which means in ideal circumstances 22666 fuel for 100k pax. You will loose fuel because of bad weather conditions, so to make calculations simple, 25k fuel for 100k pax. Or 500k fuel for 2M pax.
There are players that fly 2M pax week after week. I am not giving names, figure it out yourself. So, they need 500k fuel to fly it. How to collect it? Well, assume you have good friends that send you daily F20. You have 500 friends (your friends limit) doing that, day after day. That is 10k fuel a day, so that means you collect 70k fuel a week. That's not enough, so you need to collect fuel from launches. Assume you only do red captain to get 300 fuel per launch. You get 2 water world items per launch, so every 2.5 launches, you get a gold box with another 150 fuel, or on the average 60 fuel per launch. So, in total 360 fuel per launch. You have 70k fuel from gifts, you still need 430k fuel from launches, implying you need to do 1195 red captain launches a week.
This is only the fuel needed. There is no player doing 1000+ red launches a week, just check the red leader board. Then, there is the question of the pax. How can players that almost have no pax buildings, no visa, no police station collect 2M pax in a week, week after week?
So I am dumb, because I don't understand how you can fly 2M pax every week in a honest way. Because I believe all players here are honest. Or, am I wrong? Where is my reasoning error?
