Well, that's it, last gifting out before my week away (have I mentioned that!). Like so many others progress with the event is very slow. I have 3 Russian, 1 Indian and 1 Spanish egg. Cannot get that English egg which is really bugging me being, well, English! I have 1 each of the Majesty's Service and Tea Party collections, none of the Keyhole collections. Not many items needed as I have 3 and 4 of some items but there are some (such as copper door) that will not drop. Having 2 days remaining when I return, am dubious I will complete and may have to break my golden rule and spend greenies on something other than land to get a spyglass! Not bothered about the full event so much, but I really want an English egg!

Happy flying gang, see you late Friday.

I hear you! All I want are the eggs and the stars...
All the collections seem to have one elusive item. Besides the doors, I would finish in a heartbeat if those items would drop.
Since I accidently tapped/purchased one of G!'s pop-up advertisement items my greenies took a serious hit...
Enjoy your week off!

Good Morning from London (7.38am GMT)

This morning I've managed to send out my 20 neighbours gift items nice and early, Sunday 3rd April. My neighbours plunder brought in 21,600 coins and 17 launch ready blue chests, of which 7 were high valued resource items. Today's plunder was far more pleasing than in previous mornings.

Just 70,000 coins to go before I reach my 1,000,000 coins target and then begin to upgrade my Control Tower to level 8 (6 days to wait before the building appears, I already have all of the buildings unique items ready to complete the process and make the building solid).

Thanks for all of the gifts received, my gifts inbox was full once again.

Regards

Captain WH Rollins

Another great example by the Captain of the importance to set goals and how achieve them. You should have a personal banner saying 'Aiport City Savant'...

I really liked your post last week with your plunder totals for March. Any chance you've kept which resources came out of the blue chests? Maybe a good way to determine drop rates over time (PEBs, Main Stabilizers)...

Pity we can't swap, I have three white rabbits but still waiting for a march hare to get my card plane.

Last night I slept better than I have for weeks so didn't get around to sending gifts after 1.00am.
I will have time to catch up with gifting later this afternoon - if you have any urgent needs now is the time to tell me about them
I am still mainly interested in Flight Catering and Spare Wire as I have only 2/3 of each. Not going to be building anything soon as I have just finished upgrading (well apart from time!) my control tower. After that all my coins for some time will be going towards a Level 6 Runway, an additional hanger and a larger plane. That will put building on hold for possibly 2-3 weeks. I am soon going to have 300 tokens and so will be able to deploy many of the buildings I have in store at the moment, which will help boost my coin income. I also have a Red launch going on - check the forum for update first if you want to join as it only needs another 1000 or so to launch - places are still available and small investors also welcome

I also have the neighbours plunder figures for January and February but not, as yet, in the correct format to post. I wish I had the time to have recorded the blue chest resources in detail, it would have been very interesting and a useful data set.

 

[Aero Aereola]

Was away yesterday, so sent gifts out this morning and will get back on cycle with another round tonight. I *think* I have most forum folks caught up. Please let me know if you've sent me a gift and I haven't returned it.

Still desperately looking for Cash Counters and POS Terminals....

Think I'm about ready to throw in the towel on the event. Hopefully maybe they'll recycle it in a few months and I'll have a head start on it. I can only get on once or twice a day so maybe chasing these events just isn't "in the cards" for me...

 

[gbswales]

I believe (from my records) that I have now sent out all the gifts owing. If you feel I have missed you then please let me know - or if you want to send me either Flight catering or Spare wire then I have 12 gifts available to send today

I saw your note about the number of neighbours - I think as I said when I added you gifting is not that big a deal for me and I certainly don't worry if every gift is not meticulously returned. The main reason I want to keep you as a neighbour is those planetariums which I visit almost every day and which fund 50% for my space programme. Sometimes I have a gift or two leftover and may send you one PLEASE don't feel obligated to return one

took me over 114 flights on gameradar2 to get the On her majesty's service collection( 34 to Cheltenham , 32 to Chichester, 47 to Lichfield)

 

[crescent moon (RIP)]

Thank you to everyone who helped populate my depleted gyroscope population. It is now is pretty good shape. I have updated my signature.

After I build my level 6 runway (hopefully in about 2 more days), I will be upgrading my control tower, terminal, and reserve hangar. Most of my needs for these upgrades have been met, so for now, except for the few items listed, flight items are greatly appreciated (esp. fuel and altimeters)

I appreciate all the gifts I am receiving, and I am sorry if I don't get a gift returned to you within a couple or 3 days. I'm not the most organized person, but I try!

That's strange, I don't see any planetariums in Captain's city.

No planetariums I'm afraid.

 

[Agent_L]

No planetariums I'm afraid.

That's relieving, means I'm not bugged in this area.
So what city was @gbswales talking about?

 

[Vivke]

Thanks for all the gifts, mine are send and my list for tomorrow is ready.

Hooray, got my first plane of hearts, so can start flying with it. Hope it will drop some goods. Still a long way to go with this event.

 

[BearFlights]

Oh you're quite right - I made a mistake - I meant that I need Four of Hearts

I've plenty of 4 of hearts! Just sent you an invite- hope we're neighbors soon!This is for @BearFlights ![/QUOTE]

Great to have you as a friend and neighbour!

 

[Captain WH Rollins]

I'm assuming he was referring to someone else and somehow the two were mixed up.
