Title: Who is this?
Post by: tdf42 on September 07, 2020, 06:49:59 AM
 Who is the Allied Investment Group? A competitor of mine just leased brand new planes from them.

well a clue to the gameworld would be helpful.

I suspect it's an AI (ie computer) broker, and your competitor placed an order a few months ago leasing X planes and they're now being delivered. Look at the competitors press releases via "view airline" and you'll see the order being placed.

as you do. Just looking at your company in HatF, your latest Embraer also is leased from Allied Aircraft Investment Group

Thanks. Didn't notice I had used them myself. Don't pay too much attention to the seller.

When you place an order to lease brand new planes from the manufacturer, your planes aren't actually being "leased from Airbus" or "leased from Boeing." Instead, your leases are (randomly...?) assigned to one of the AI brokers. That's why you see them as "Leased from Allied Investment Group."
