http://apps.facebook.com/airline_managerIt's pretty basic and they have way to few airports, but I'm hooked already. You get a 737-800 and a bunch of cash to start off, once your start-up reserves run out you have to buy your fuel, pay staff, and operate profitably so you can afford new aircraft and routes - so pretty much like a lot of the online airline simulators, but for Facebook.
I've been playing for a week now and this is where I'm at:
Hub 1 - Petropavlovsk Kamchatsky, Russia:RA-002 An-24 Vladivostok
RA-003 An-148-100B Beijing
RA-007 An-148-100B Osaka
RA-008 An-24 Sapporo
RA-009 An-24 Tokyo Narita
RA-015 An-148-100B Anchorage
The An-24s are surprisingly good, excellent actually, but will probably be phased out once I can start upgrading some of the An-148 routes to Tu-154 or Tu-204 equipment. There are other routes they could fly in the Russian Far East region, but I canned them as they were losing money.
Hub 2 - Vladivostok, Russia:RA-004 An-26 Seoul
RA-005 An-26 Shanghai
RA-010 An-26 Sapporo
RA-011 An-26 Tokyo Narita
RA-012 An-26 Pyongyang
RA-016 Tu-134A Beijing
RA-017 Tu-134A Osaka
RA-018 Tu-143A Fukuoka
The An-26s were dirt cheap to buy and are good for opening routes, but now the game has made Tu-134s available they will be gradually replaced, all being retired instead of paying to put them through a C check at 400 flight hours.
Focus City - Khabrovsk:RA-001 Il-114-100 Petropavlovsk Kamchatsky
RA-013 Il-114-100 Beijing
RA-014 Il-114-100 Sapporo
They go wrong occasionally, but the Il-114 is quite a profitable little aircraft. Not sure where I see the destination developing though, my priority is to upgrade equipment and then lanch services to Moscow from both hubs. Eventually I see Vladivostok serving as a hub for Far East-West traffic, and Petropavlovsk Kamchatsky serving as a hub for Far East-North American traffic.
As I said... it's addicting
