Feature requests Gameplay

:bullseye: What is your suggestion?
The ability to lease aircraft that you own out to other WOA players.

:hammer_and_wrench: How would it work in the game?
Could be implemented as a cheaper option for players to utilise aircraft on a temporary basis.
Not sure how the cost side could work, maybe this could be player choice or maybe just standardised per aircraft and not able to change.
Could work as a % of a flights profits goes back to the owner of the AC.
Not sure what the % could be, but my thoughts were that this would be the only way that it would work.

:balance_scale: Why is this a good idea?
Leasing aircraft is a major part of the real aviation world and for airlines.
Leasing can be of multiple advantages 2 being that is a cheaper way to obtain aircraft and another being that they can fill in when aircraft are out for maintenance.

I agree with this, especially if it involves leasing aircraft from other players. If we can’t find someone send an aircraft too then we can lease it to somebody who might need it, with both players earning Wollars from the aircraft (aircraft owner for the leasing costs, and the person leasing it gets to earn the revenue off the flights) so long as the aircraft’s owner pays for maintenance during the lease.

I don’t understand about the “leasing” thing…

That’s pretty simple, much like aircraft leasing IRL.

Player A buys airplanes in hanger and lend it to another player so this player can expect some return, maybe wollars and silver planes.

Player B borrow airplanes from Player A to operate a route to other airports or send planes to other players. This will save money for this player and allow this player to use locked airplanes. This player definitely need to pay some cash and rewards out of the pocket as the rental fee, but it could be worthwhile in many cases.

I don’t buy airplanes since I don’t operate them I would be happy to buy some and give it to other players and get some rewards since I have a lot of wollars at many airports.
