Airline Architect

YOUR OWN COLORS Fleet ▸ Livery has a new Custom option. Pick any color for your airline name and any color for the tail. If a color is too light to read on a white airplane, the game darkens it just enough to read and tells you. The hue stays the same. Custom colors are part of the Full Game unlock. The 10 palettes stay free. Engine cowlings now wear your tail color too, on all 35 jets. Each cowling was drawn by hand for its aircraft, with the chevron edges on the 787s, the 747-8 and the MAX family. The tails were redrawn as well, so the paint runs all the way down to the fuselage. Turboprops keep white engines. TWO NEW 737 MAX JETS The Boeing 737 MAX 7 and 737 MAX 10 are in the Marketplace. Both are newly certified by the FAA, and no other airline in the game flies them yet, so you can buy or lease one new and be the first. The MAX 7 seats 148 and flies 3,800 NM. The MAX 10 seats 200 with 3,100 NM of range. MORE DETAILED ROUTE INFO Route research and the Cabin Layout screen now tell you why a route earns what it does: whether the seats or the demand is the limit, how distance sets the fare, and how many passengers want a premium cabin on the longest leg. Pick a route in the Routes panel, or tap an aircraft, and its route lights up on the map. Both of these came from a player's App Store review. READY FOR IPHONE DUO The layout adapts when you fold or unfold the phone, and you stay where you were. Fixes: • A parked aircraft with a booked check now says "parked" instead of "still flying" • A spelling fix in the Ops log
