Aircraft Generating the Most Losses

I have been a registered member of AWS since 2007, and I am still sometimes confused.

How should one interpret and use the information found in every game world under the Aircraft Tab: Aircraft Generating the Most Losses?

Where does the data for this chart come from?

How often is it updated?

Why is the amount of loss listed on the chart different from the amount of loss/profit listed when looking at the information for the individual aircraft?

How can one use this information correctly to run a profitable airline?

By the way, I understand and expect losses from a new route until it matures.

Your planes, owned or leased, either scheduled or inactive. NB : it counts direct costs & income, not indirect costs as staff, commonality or marketing.

the former is last week result. Tje latter is a projection for the current week (I think, if someone can confirm or infirm)

it shows you inactive planes, and badly used planes. For both, unless they've been scheduled recently and RI is lox, you know you should think or rethink about their schedule.
