:bullseye: What is your suggestion?
When players buy a fleet aircraft for the first time, they can have the ability to just unlock the aircraft without having to purchase it.

:hammer_and_wrench: How would it work in the game?
When buying a fleet plane for the first time, there would be two buttons, one for just unlocking the aircraft with GP and the other being the current “Unlock & Purchase” button.

:balance_scale: Why is this a good idea?
This will allow players to have the alternative option of having the fleet plane being unlocked only and can buy said unlocked fleet plane at a later date due to future plans players may have. This would also help players to not worry about the fleet plane being present on both “My Fleet” page and the arrivals tab, which would make it a minor nuisance to the point where selling the fleet plane to remove it is the only current option available, which also means that players would lose some Wollars.

This shouldn’t replace the current “Unlock & Purchase” button as other players want the purchased fleet plane to start flying immediately but instead, as mentioned earlier, be an alternative option available for players who just want to unlock a fleet plane and then can purchase them in bulk later on.
