More often than not it had to do with the intra alliance price range not including the price the buying airline paid for the plane. For example, I buy 100 737-800 at launch for a 36% discount. Over the next 5 years the price of a new order jumps by 50%. Now the plane I paid $40m for sells new for $105m and the lowest intra alliance price is $95m. Also can go the other way. I once ordered 747 for someone for something like $100m a piece and by the time they were delivered the Max intra alliance price was $70m.

So what ?
I was talking to low down only max price to market or recommended within alliance trades. nothing more.
It can be very unique case to transfer money via selling popular new planes that were bought at launch, the same as your 747 case.

but for used planes or not popular - it will greatly reduce the ability to manipulate. and if the player will jump out and back to alliance to avoid it - it will become clear case for punishment

So what we are saying is do a bit of code ref scrapped planes. Then invent a Moderator role so that they can escalate it to Sami?

Pretty sure individuals just escalate to Sami direct now, do they not? So the point of a Moderator is what exactly? Unless it something Sami wants I don't see the point or need.

I still don't see why we the need the ability, to sell something for three times what you we have paid for it. So why not just code that out when its a used plane. If I'm honest it looks like a lot of people like the ability to be able to do that if it stops them from going bust. That's just my interpretation but I could be wrong.

if there would be a realistic market price: fine. but a recommended price where some airlines are gone in a minute and others stay forever is just not a market price.

after this convo this still goes on:

This plane is also due for a D check.

What I find even more amazing is its the same people doing the same things.

If so it would be kind of a slap in the face of the game, and it's creator
