Airline Tycoon: First Class Hints

McDonnell Douglas DC8 Super 70

  • This planes only holds 259 passengers and 25 tonnes of cargo, which makes it an average sized plane. But one major drawback is its consumption rate -- at 14,000l/h it is too high. But what it loses in consumption, it makes up in range. At 12,600km, it is only second to the Space Voyager 2000 (the ultimate plane). But another major drawback is its price -- at $80 million it is too high and is not good value for an average-sized plane with a large engine. It could be used for long-range expensive orders and should still make a small profit, though.

    Rating: Not recommended as its consumption is too high and its price stops many people from buying it.
