SkyStaffextra News #7!

How we got I-DLZ

That up there :backhand_index_pointing_up: ,yeah this. How we got that plane? It isn’t produced anymore. So, how we got that?! Here is the story:

In the #5 news, the CEO of SkyStaffextra told, the B fleet in BRI will contain the F70. He decided for it, because it has a op range and good capacity for a B plane. “So, where we will get this bad boy?”. That was the big question. And it was soon answered. Skytra wrote a post on the Airline CEO website***. He got soon an answer:

Dear Skytra,

I wrote your post about the F70 you are seeking for. I’ve got plenty of them! I’ll offer you one for 38.000 W.

Waiting for response,

CEO of Alliance Airlines


“Welcome to SkyStaffextra…”, a new chapter.

3 days later, the F70 (registered as VH-NUO) got a big check, Alliance Airlines got 38.000 W and SkyStaffextra got VH-NUO. The big check showed no problems or signs of failure/fatigue and the crew of SkyStaffextra boarded to get the F70 to BRI. The route:

Brisbane → Darwin: 3h 50min, at Darwin VH-NUO got a small outside check and refueling

Darwin → Denpasar: 2h 30min, another outside check and refueling

Denpasar → Bangkok*: 4h 10min, outside check, crew change (crew from SkyStaffextra flew with @OIEO s 788, thanks for that!) and another refueling

Bangkok → Mumbai*: 4h 30min, a big check**, stay over night and refueling

Mumbai → Muscat: 2h 45, small check**, crew change (SkyStaffextra crew flew from BRI to MCT with @DJaviation s 753, thanks for that!), refueling

Muscat → Paphos: 3h 45min, outside check and refueling

Paphos → Athens: 1h 35min, one day stay for final big inspection**

Athens → Bari: 1h 10min, final arrival

After 1 day and some hours and the arrival in BRI, it gets in the hangar of SkyStaffextra, and the livery got removed, the plane is blank. Livery will come soon.

Arrival in BRI :)))

*the F70 got at its maximum. Please don’t try that on your planes

**all inspections were made by our friendly and helpful guys from GSA and SkyStaffextra

***very fictional website (;

Ace Airlines Continues massive expansion, acquiring over 20 new aircraft since last order.

**

Ace continues their Goal of a large fleet expansion, particularly long haul and ultra long haul routes. Ace airlines has also placed orders for multiples new A350-900s and plans on acquiring retired Etihad A380s in order to achieve this goal. This will allow Ace to operate routes form their IAD hub to airports like Hong Kong and Sydney. The switch to Airbus Ultra long haul aircraft does not mean that Ace’s Boeing 777 fleet will fall out. In fact, ace has ordered many for 777f’s expanding their Cargo fleet, mainly heading to South American Hubs.

The narrow body’s were not left out of this expansion, as Ace had recently Reopened Routes to San Diego after their main partner Virgin Islands Air moved their operations elsewhere. Ace has opened these routes operating their 737 Max 8’s and the oldest aircraft in their fleet a 737-800.

Less popular long haul routes are ran by their fleet of Airbus A321 LR’s. The most common example being IAD to Prague. Ace operates multiples of these flights a day, offering their Black tier first class even on these narrow bodies in a 1-1 configuration.

After over 6 years of playing World of Airports, It is my profound honor to announce the start of my first ever WoA Airline: PacificJet.

I’ve been wanting to do connections and regular flights between players for years now, but I haven’t had the time, will, Currency, and dedication to do so. So I am finally biting the bullet and just trying it out.

PacificJet will begin it’s first base from HKG, but I plan to move to other airports like SYD, IAD, and other new airports in the future.

Our fleet isn’t built yet, but we plan to begin operations with aircraft orders over the next few months including :

~5-10 Boeing 757-200s

~2-3 Airbus A330-300s

~1-2 747-8Is

More airframes and aircraft types are a possibility, too. We are currently looking into options of potentially buying Boeing 737 MAX-8s as well.

Our main livery consists of a base color of a dark, navy blue, with a secondary color of a red wine-like color, with accents of a silvery-titanium along the engines.

For our 747 fleet, we plan to have a more executive-looking livery, with the same colors as the normal livery, with solid, straight striping down the fuselage, and a dark blue underbelly.

Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for reading!

Exciting news out of Hong Kong today!

This afternoon, newly formed pacific-based carrier PacificJet received their very first aircraft delivery, B-HZHX, a brand-new Boeing 757-200!

The aircraft is the first of an initial order of ten Boeing 757s, which are all slated for delivery in the coming months.

We plan to use the 757 platform as our main fleet workhorse, serving many different destinations thanks to its versatility and capacity. We plan to operate the 757 from Hong Kong to destinations in Asia, Oceania, the Middle-East, and more.

The aircraft is now currently parked at the airport while we confirm a potential contact with our first destination.

Stay tuned for more news, and thank you for your attention!

Almost a year after the closure of all wide-body gates on the satellite at Suvarnabhumi, We are once again reopening as many as possible to allow more E/F planes to land at Bangkok, to increase our traffic flow, to put less stress on runways 20R and 19, and to establish 20L as a fully operational approach and departure runway.

I thank you for reading this and let’s hope my plans to increase productivity at the airport very much work :crossed_fingers::neutral_face:.

if anyone would like to send or be sent any planes just DM me, IGN is “grazygamer338” - subject to change.

Many thanks

good morning! we have some unfortunate news, when one of our A321XLRs where leaving the painting area at Toulouse one of the wings struck the door causing significant damage which is delaying our order for 5 A321XLRs and 3 A321LRs as we move away from our old E190s we have leased 2 E195-E2s from porter in the meantime but we are pushing back our E190 retirement.

we are sorry for the incovinince and are working with airbus to get the other 4 soon.

in other news, we have bought 2 A339s (im supprised its taken me this long to buy some lol, if ykyk) we are happy to get them but with the rise in travel demand to europe we are also leasing an A330-300 from discover air till they arrive its costing us alot but it will pay out in the long run! thank you so much for reading this and sticking with us through these times and delays.

Ace Airlines Goes Airbus: Acquiring Their New Flagship A350, Replacing The Previous 777 As Flagship Variant.

The aircraft registered NXJS arriving at Dulles

Ace Airlines, what used to be a small airline running on the parent Blackbirds Co. company, has recently acquired an upgrade from their aging 777 fleet. This new aircraft, the Airbus A350-900, has an upgraded range of over 8524 Nautical Miles. This is compared to the previously used 777’s range of 7580 nautical miles.

This almost 1000 mile increase allows the airline to open direct routes to further locations, which is why the inaugural route is opening up Bangkok Thailand. operating in corporation with @ARGON Air.

NXJS being handled and departing Dulles for Bangkok

Ace has also stated that new direct routes to Sydney are also possible thanks to the aircraft variant.

New routes are not the only thing the A350 is operating, Ace has stated that routes operate by the variant will be opened to Oman and Hong Kong. South American routes to Chile and Brazil should also be expected as well.

Ace has also stated that no, 777 routes will not be phased out, nor will the use of the type decrease. The A350 will operate alongside the 777 and will not directly replace it. This does mean that Ace has no plans to order more 777s in the foreseeable future.

Sonic airline’s daily #14:New routes and expansions!

Today Stardust announced that they will be sending out some of their 737-800MAXs to BRI from their European hub PRG, while concerns between PRG management and Stardust himself have been raised and he has admitted himself that “Currently we have been concerned on space for our planes and our partners in PRG, we have funded expansion projects, but that did not help”. Tho concepts have been created that they should build up IAD to be a hub, but that is just a concept. For the second Topic of the day, the IAD management announce’s the opening of new gate’s.

But wait there’s more! The rest of the 737-800MAX’s on routes to Saudi Arabia and Qatar. And Sonic airlines first plane in PRG has been sold and probably going to be scarped. (It was a ATR-42 by the way)

Pic1:We had to use this photo because our photographer came back with only photo’s of monuments, what a tourist. (What have you done Seattle airport rendering team?!?)
