Choosing the best aircraft

What's the demand on the routes? Are you looking to fulfill all of the demand across each class and cargo or just economy?

Calculation wise I've been working out what my setups would be in each plane I'm thinking of using to fulfill complete demand, buying one of each or reconfiguring one if I have a model and putting the routes on each plane. Essentially to see what the results are. I do have quite a bit of money through not spending for a while though. The jets won't go to waste though as I'm buying a tonne of routes.

Example - recent 84 hour circuit (5 routes) I've been organising. Worked out I could use a seven 747's to fulfill demand, or 14 757-200s (advised on here) or 14 757-300s. Bought one of each and totalled the resulting income of the 5 separate flights per plane, multiplying by flights per day (2) and then by the amount of planes per scenario.

The 14 757-300s won comfortably. The seating configuration works better and revenue per flight is higher. Brings in an extra 3.1 million from the 757-200s and an extra 4million per week than the 747-400s. Also costs 200 million less to buy in total.
