I've barely got any planes that can land there.  Can I upgrade the airport to make it a class 2?

Was wondering that myself, someone else is gonna have to answer that.  I had 3 planes still at class 1 and found two in my hanger i forgot about so thats what im using.

Anyone know if you upgrade a airport if that allows higher class planes?

I've "googled" it and it appears it's not an option to upgrade an airport class.

Bummer.  It's for a starship (or at the least a starship part) which I imagine are worth something pretty solid.

Wish you could see the names of others in the flight crew leader board for your group.  Or to anyone that has friends in game center in goEMAW do they show up?

also, the global event prizes aren't that big of a deal.  you can get the starship by delivering "mystery parts" to the global event city and build a starship from them.  I got a helicopter from the global event in Boston or Philly or wherever.  I just got a starship engine and controls and have another mystery part enroute.  when the event is over we can all put our spare parts in a pool so hopefully everyone gets at least one starship.

Yea, pro tip, always keep a couple of class 1 in your hangar

Got some more now.  Only us two it looks like so far.  Still at 300 something.

Prizes are whole starships and starships parts plus bux.  Boom!
how can you tell who is doing jobs?

you have to add them in the gamecenter thing and then the people's names will appear next to their jobs done in the flight crew thing.

hmm WTF

i don't know what the flight crew thing is.

the flight crew screen says we've done 263 jobs and are (#171 in world).  jobs by you always says RANK WILL UPDATE SHORTLY but never does.





also, have you guys had any luck turning off notifications?  i can't get them to stop.

yeah, I turned them off and haven't had an issue.  hit the flight crew - leader board - bottom left hand picture of three dudes.  that will take you to the list of people who've done jobs in the flight crew.

I had zero airports in the western hemisphere, but I just opened one in LA and one in San Diego, and dusted off two class one planes.  Those two planes are now 100% dedicated to the shuttling back and forth between LA and SD for the Global Event.

I am going to keep this strategy up.

All my other airports are class 3.

Is it number of trips you make to the Global event or number of units of cargo/people delivered that matters?

i'm still w/o US access (i did open up SD but don't have the cash to open a plane spot or another US destination).  can i bring comiccon'ers into a Euro airport for you guys to haul them to US?  i stretch from Karachi to London and everywhere in between right now.
