I have written this user guide to  provide you with a brief overview as to the different types of Airport City maps available, which you will be available to collect, during long term game play. This user guide is divided into four main sections, the first section deals with Alliance Maps, the second section deals with Space Maps, the third section deals with Adventure Maps and the fourth section deals with Excavation Maps.

Alliance Maps	Space Maps	Adventure Maps	Excavation Maps

If you are relatively new to the game you will not be able to collect these types of maps at first, simply because your game will not be set up to do so. It will not be until you have a well established game, on the city side and airport side, that you will be able to start collecting these types of maps. You will need to be part of an Alliance Group to obtain Alliance Maps, you will need to have an active Space Program to obtain Space Maps and have access to the Airship Store to purchase Adventure Maps and Excavation Maps. This will take time to do so, as will all the other aspects of the game, that you will be involved with.

You will need to have the full spectrum of planes in your fleet (Swift, Owl, Hawk, Raven, Eagle, Jumbo, Giant, Falcon, Thunderbird and Condor) to undertake these types of map flights. All the Standard, S1, S2 and S3 class plane types can be used to fly alliance maps. You will also have the option to speed up your planes in flight by 30%, by watching a small selection of video advertisements each day, and the option to complete flights by using your fuel. You will also need to be extremely well resourced with fuel, passengers and flight items, and be able to replenish your resources, as you use them.

Although you may not be in a position to collect these types of maps at first, it will still be useful for you to read through the user guide. It will afford you the opportunity to look ahead, beyond your present game level. The user guide will help you to understand that these types of map flights, are more for advanced players, who have set up their games with these map flights in mind. You will also need to do the same, if you are to fly maps, it does need to be planned for in advance.

SECTION ONE:- ALLIANCE MAPS

To collect these types of maps (also known as Purple Maps) you will need to be part of an established and successfull alliance group, and regularly finish in the Top 100 Alliance Group Table. These types maps can only be obtained from the following five map sets, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Sigma and Omega. They will form part of the two chest rewards for finishing in the top 100 alliance group table each week. These types of maps can not be purchased with green notes or gold coins, they are only available through alliance groups.

The alliance maps which you collect, during long term game play, will be stored in the Warehouse Flight Maps section, which you can access through the 7th icon, located along the top row of the warehouse menu. You can can access the warehouse through the Brown Crate, the 4th icon, located along the bottom row of the game screen. Once activated, each of the alliance maps will last for 6 hours. Each of the maps will have three stars to collect, and a total of 500 flights across three stages (1st stage 50, 2nd stage 250, 3rd stage 500). You will be able to fly as many of each plane type, to their associated map flight destinations, as you wish:

SECTION TWO:- SPACE MAPS

To collect these types of maps you will need to have a well established space program, which will take time to set up. You will need the full spectrum of Green, Blue and Red launch pads and their associated rockets and shuttle. You will also need to have the Mission Control Centre in place, for each coloured launch pad.

It will be important you are well stocked with space program resources, Powerful Explosive Bolt, Main Stabilizer, Large Fuel Tank, Explosive Bolt, Additional Stabilizer, Solid Fuel, Small Fuel Tank and Liquid Fuel to fuel your three space vehicles. You will also need a healthy and reliable number of neighbours to fly with.

These space maps will be obtained from the following, Interstellar Set, The Stars My Destination and Edge of Tomorrow. The maps will be stored in the Warehouse Flight Maps section 7th icon, access through the 4th Brown Crate icon, located along the bottom row of the game screen. These types of maps can not be purchased with Green Notes or Gold Coins, they can only be obtained by being in first place seat position during Green, Blue and Red launch flights. Once activated, each of the space maps will last 3 hours for green launch, 12 hours, 30 minutes for blue launch and 17 hours for red launch:
