[ok] Changing an order for a new plane
auerbacs:
In the Jet Age, I have ordered some new 737-200s on an operational lease. When I try to change the order, the lease price goes up even if I downgrade the plane (lowering the MTOW). Also, if I change the configuration, this also changes the lease... shouldn't that be a one-off lump-sum change. And when if I change the order from a operational lease to a direct purchase, shouldn't the original order confirmation of 5 months lease that I've already paid be deducted from the new price - this doesn't seem to be happening. I'd really like to downgrade my MTOW, change the configuration and change it to a direct purchase, but it seems to be severely punishing me for doing so.

When you change the order it is basically never cheaper, unless you make some major changes. There is always a sort of 'servicee fee' built it. Or in other words making changes to an order will always usually cost you.

Fair enough. Still, I'm a bit frustrated with Boeing... their plane isn't even certified yet, what do they care if I want to change my order. Also, I feel like that'd be happy to get the call that somebody wanted to buy their plane outright rather than just lease it... But I suppose it's hardly a bug then, it's just me whining ???

I will try to recode the order edit later on, based on this report: http://www.airwaysim.com/forum/index.php/topic,17135.0.html
It'll also fix/change this then.

I'm still a bit puzzled by changing of financing of the plane.
I changed my mind and I now want to buy the first plane that will arrive instead of leasing it 7y.
Will this cost me?
