Glass

Hello,
Can I have an update on the spare parts issue?
At the moment there are not only XS-Cargo planes that brings spare parts but also other cargos. Around 2% flights of my Boilings C-17 brings glass. This is insanely high drop rate because with XS's I have something like 0,5%...
Please let me know which cargo planes brings glass now and what could be the drop rate for them. I know this is very random but it would be nice to know which planes we should invest in.
Thank you.

 

Hello marcinrzepa,

as we published in this announcement, there was a change concerning the glass droprate. Before the change, only cargos with flight times up to 1 hour dropped glass.

After that change, the droprate is depending on the flight time again. But now it's like the following: The longer the flight time of a cargo plane, the higher is the probability that it will drop glass.

I hope, I could help you with your question.

Kind regards,

Thank you NightHawk, that actually answears a lot of questions!

I also believe that event planes have a little bigger drop rate than the usual ones but that is something to investigate.

Apart from the flight time, does the size of the plane (big or small) has any influence on the glass drop rate?

 

From my impression, I would say it's the other way around - my event cargos often bring more glass than my shop cargos .
So, I think there is no relevant difference.

No, the drops just depend on the flight time .

Kind regards,

Yeah, that's what I said

OK, thank you for your clarification, now I know everything.

 

Just looked at your post again - you're absolutely right. It seems that I'm really getting older .

And as your question is answered, I will close the thread again.

Wish you a nice evening,
