You can keep telling me my secondary bases in Polynesia are unprofitable and that there is no way I am making a dime from 9-seaters but I will keep cashing the checks.  ;)

Moorea - Temae
Aircraft Based: 6 (3 EMB-120, 1 EMB-120ER, 2 PC-12/47)
Office Rent: 12,000/mo
Staff Costs: 466,464/mo
Commonality: 26,206/mo

E-120:
EMBN- 77.8%LF $51,097/day $327,017/wk
EMBO- 63.7%LF $30,063/day $228,436/wk
EMBP- 55.5%LF $11,021/day $72,187/wk

E-120ER:
EMBM- 57.5%LF $6,093/day $41,750/wk

PC-12/47:
PCFF- 63.6%LF $2,483/day $15,257/wk
PCGG- 70.5%LF $3,323/day $20,703/wk

Seems to me that the first plane alone covers the monthly costs. The base has been open for more than a year and my bottom line has only improved with nothing much changing at the HQ.

There's a mistake in the statistics. Your massive staff increase at your HQ isn't shown at the bases tab.

For example:
My staff costs in the statistics for the base is about 2.5 Million.


That my overall staff cost with base opening went from 216 Million to 240 Million per month isn't written down there.

HQ staffing is $1.3million a month, it also covers its own costs easily.
