Some guy at toucharcade did the math and calculated the speed of the game and a bunch of other factors, and concluded that it would take at least 3 hours to reach that score. I don't know how accurate that is, but i guess it seems plausible.

Wow, I guess that's possible. I might have to fly to California this summer. With that 5 hour flight, I guess I can do that too! :rolleyes:

I thought the online scores were ridiculous, but TBF once you get to the fastest speed - about round the 75th landing it doesn't actually get any faster. High hundreds are possible when you've played for a bit so thousands aren't totally out the window.

66,359 is the number of total landings (since he has the game, all sessions together). The max. score is someting at three thousand landings.

I am playing for two or three hours now and my score is 76.

yeah...i know. thats why i said landings. i guess i wasn't clear enough on what i meant.

anyways, what i said about the 3 hours or whatever to reach that score is still true i think. I was thinking about the 3,000 score when i mentioned that above (I wasn't thinking of the 66,000)

64. I feel inadequate....


A confident of higher scores now you can pause, exit, and continue with a game. A few good attempts of mine have been interrupted by real life stuff. Boo.


What about strategies? I try to set up lanes for each type of traffic, which seems to help.

May 1, 2009, 01:12 AM
i'm a lame 63!! compared to those guys oin the thousands :eek:

but i only agree with scores that have been achieved in one go in one sitting..

pausing the game and coming back to it another time is cheating :p

the highest landings in a single game is 3155 by Poco not 66539. That was the total landings of all the games that person has played.

160-something.

I typically just send each plane straight to their runway, choosing planes to retreat temporarily when collisions are about to happen.

I'm on 114... and it was SUCH a dumb error that stopped me that time :(

3k is absurd... people have WAY too much free time

Im pissed though because the score submitting is all wierd and wont register my high score and says Im still a "passenger"

Im an air traffic controller and it took me about a week and a half to get 308 as my high score.

Currently the high score at my facility.

I usually don't get less than 100 when I play, which makes the game pretty boring because it takes seemingly forever to get to that point.

Overall great game.

Awesome! I can't get passed 72 :(. 1 queston though, a little off topic and personal, how much do you make a year? Hehe:p:p:p

90 so far. 5000 landings.

digitalfrog
May 2, 2009, 03:44 AM
There is hope.... I've been stuck at 90 for quite some time, then went straight to 127 another time.... and bang 217 another.

It's like low/low/low/low and suddenly big score.

Well.... when I say big .... tiny compared to the masters ;-)

129 for me and I've had it only a week. Once you get the hang of it and develop a strategy you get much better scores.

Gee, jsut got 180 now. after about 5 shots. i suppose this whole 300+ crew is possible.

115 is mine, stupid error too, sent two lighties into each other and couldn't see it under my thumb on the right hand side.

Everything else was lined up perfectly, would have been 140+ had I not stuffed it up.

Mine was at 119 for the longest time, and out of the blue last night I hit 219. Very addictive game, glad I spent the $.99.

I'm at 86 and holding ... what's the deal, no one wants to share their strategies?

Lanes for different types of traffic?
I always route planes of the same type over the exact same path when there's a bunch onscreen together. But that's only gotten me so far.

I think I'm up to about 120-something, but the thing is, the difficulty of the game increases until around 80 or so, and then it doesn't get more difficult, so the strategy is to just keep doing what you're doing, nothing really changes.

514 planes landed, so.. I haven't played it solidly... is a good game and worth 59p

My highest is 280 on the original air field. I haven't been able to repeat anywhere near that score though. I have managed to consistently score over 100 so maybe someday I'll break my high score.

Beach: 164

Carrier: 101 (I'm terrible at this one)

Mahr
Jun 11, 2009, 11:20 AM
My high on the original airfield is 66. How long does it take you to get up to ~250 some landings?

What strategies are people using? I haven't developed one that works yet, though I know that it's a good idea to keep the planes away from the edges. :)

I prefer the the Royal Flying Doctor Service game and my high score for one game is 13292 but now my ipod keeps crashing and whenever I get around 5000-6000 it just crashes and then I startup flight control again its as if I had never played the previous game, anyone else have this problem?
