Default small runway=20 AirBills??

Hello,

I noticed a small runway now costs 20 Airbills, while a medium runway still costs the 9,500 coins. This doesn't make sense! Is it suppose to be like this?

I also noticed alot of planes now cost Airbills too, we went from having like 2 planes that costed Airbills, maybe even 1, I dont exactly remember, I know the SuperSteady did.

Looks like players are gonna have to invest in Airbills to get a variety of planes now.

Alot of the planes that cost Airbills, aren't even worth purchasing, in my opinion. The rewards for alot of them are very low.

What you guys think?

Hello,

As you may have noticed, the medium runways can land anything for XS to M, thus not having the need for the small runway. It doesn't make since to charge AB for small runway unless it was targeting new players that couldn't afford the medium runway. The small runway is substantially smaller though. In any case, just invest in 2 medium runways and use the 1 small runway, then all should be well for awhile at least.

I did that weeks ago, I have 2 medium runways and my small has stayed in storage cuz I don't need it. Small planes can land on medium runways too so I never use the small one. That's why this doesn't make any sense. They just changed this in the update and I don't have a clue why. Will wait and see if a Mod know's why I guess

I could do with a 2nd med runway, but just haven't got the room ATM, even to replace the small with a medium.
There does seem to be a lot of planes needing cash, I could do with another XS-superquick, but I'm not investing anymore cash into the game until the the auto-service problem is resolved. I need to extend by helicopter hanger too, but am going to wait until up a level so I can (need a ramacopter steady for a quest)

Default big or small

think about it you would rather have a runway what can only land XS planes or A bigger one that looks more proffenional (in my opinoin) that can land any plane. I think it is worth th 9500 aircoins

The medium runway is totally worth the coins. My point is I don't see why they put the small one req'n airbills (obviously a way to make money off ppl buying the small runway) but players really don't need the small runway. Only reason they would is until they get up enough coins to buy the med ones. But considering its so easy to make coins in this game, I still don't see the point. I can see needing a 2nd runway when you in early stages of the game, but considering the space you have, which isn't much at all, and at those stages in the game players are more worried about building up passengers to have for when they really need them which is getting medium planes and med hangar. So the space during those stages should be more focused on passenger buildings/items, not containing more then 1 small runway.

I personally have 4 medium runways on my airport, so I REALLY have no use for my 1 small runway now. My point is why would they think ppl would spend $ on something when they can get a better one using the coins in the game which are free.

Again, this makes no sense!

Hello,

The only theory I have is to get the new players to spend money on the game to get a head start. Making coins when starting out isn't as easy as being higher level.
