I think you underestimate the usefulness of the navigational point. It is very useful in ordering and lining up planes towards a runway. I usually send incoming flights to a navigational point so that I have a flow of incoming planes coming from a single direction towards a runway. That way I dont have to juggle several inbound planes flighing in random directions.

As a pilot irl, when you uploaded the first vid, I installed this game faster than anything I’ve ever done. It’s super addictive. Just a warning, it gets really complicated on later

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="430">7:10</a> oh it's captain sully saving everyone!

For the crossover runway, an important consideration is the time a landing plane spends stopped on the runway to taxi, so you should think of both runways as being one-way heading AWAY from the crossover point. That way, when a plane lands on one runway, it doesn't sit there blocking the OTHER runway for a couple precious seconds. I generally take that one-way approach to all runways in this game, regardless of the level. I find it exponentially easier to control traffic to flow in a single direction, and if you always take off planes in the same direction you land them, you can minimize the wait time, and dramatically reduce the chances of a collision. Also, with this pre-release demo, the leaderboard isn't actually active to the playing community. My record on the Tokyo level is over 400 points, for instance.

The easteregg of the hudson river crash is an interesting inclusion in the game! I wonder if theyll include other events that are similar in other cities

… oh RCE, never change. Those Hold and Navigation Waypoints are pretty much essential to getting high scores, the hold in particular! But I do absolutely want you to keep playing it! Far more entertaining than clickers, or even Hydroneer!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="140">2:20</a> In real life, it's the opposite: planes in the air have priority over planes on the ground.

The Miracle on the Hudson is considered the most successful emergency water landing by an airliner.

That was some architect level ATCing there. Somethings I found out: you can use destinations as makeshift waypoints for all traffic. way I used waypoints was basically to normalize flight corridors, mainly for setting up inbounds on pre final approach, they work good as catch alls for inbounds, also sometimes for points where I needed a precise timed hard turn. the holding patterns suck ass, I had only two planes in one, and they still somehow crashed into each other when one speed demon pilot caught up with the other. Expedite upgrade seem to be only really worth it for like 4-5 upgrades, then they don't seem to affect the turn radius much more.

You can use other colored destinations as waypoints. Like you can use a blue waypoint to guide a red or gray etc

i got happy tingles when i saw the mayday say bird strike, lost both engines and returning to LaGuardia, because i actually knew what was being referenced.

As someone flying to Kos tomoorow from England, I truely appreciate this video and PRAY Matt isn't an air traffic controller in his spare time

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="426">7:06</a> you missed a Breaking Bad Tuco clip

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="581">9:41</a> If only BMW started making jets, I mean, can't they just let the ban on BMW plane engines go? It's been 80 years already.

Matt: commenting on how close together two planes will land. Also Matt: NoOo ThEy CrAsHeD iNtO eAcH oThEr!?

As a pilot of a BMW I would like to inform you that this is not your airport and we will land wherever we see fit. Your job is to keep our runways clear for us when we need them.

I can't see a game with an airport without being reminded of Skyrama and still this is a thousand times more complex than it! Keep up the good work, Matt!

BMW plane had me in tears while doing dishes, top tier

Matt needs to work for Boeing

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="375">6:15</a> the orange dot was at the bottom and glitched to the top and the orange plane switched runways...what kind of trickery is happening here matt???

As someone that works at the airport with the most runways in the world (it’s O’Hare, IL, USA with 8) I hope they have O’Hare in this game! He thinks 2 are bad!😂😂

And I thought Biffa ran those planes in tight places, You stressed me out, Matt! LOL

choose the way point, it is the most must take upgrade of the game, and you will easier to queue up the approaching planes, like real world ATCs.

We have the blue angles

There’s a reason airports don’t use crossing runways at the same time (it’s wind direction and wind speed)

it's fun to watch you do this! i recommend you try to get acclimated with the hold points more as they help once things REALLY get clogged

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="763">12:43</a> i think you would love the Kai Tak Airport :)

Weird that New York is only the second level. It should be the level that is the ultimate test of your skills; basically if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere.

Thanks for introducing me to this game, i love it!

I'd love to see moar of Fly Corp and this game, Mini Airways!

Bro is trying to recreate tenerifie disaster

I've had this on my tablet for like ten years now. Just the landing but it looks pretty much identical. Nicely "borrowed" from the mini people.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="432">7:12</a> - That’s Sully!

I love watching this game. Really satisfying and stressful at the same time. More!

I downloaded this after your first video and love it. Very addictive and stressful. I like the editor in there and made a map based on my local small airport. I just wish, for the runway length slider in the editor, that you could actually set the number of feet or meters for the runway, all it does is change the length without showing what the actual length is.

Every time you got an upgrade, I was like 'hold waypoint, hold waypoint NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO'

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="340">5:40</a> that would be the Blue Angels. Close!

Its Blue Angels Matt! haha

If you and the viewers like this game, you should try Rail Route!

Play this more! is's super fun to watch you manage all the craziness

Your crashes really make me want to play the game!

The correct american ATC terminology for „quick! afterburners! afterburners!“ is „no delay please“

Our airial acrobatics group is the Blue Angels.

Hehe, it's a fun series to watch, so keep them coming 😂

Airplane😮

yeah would love to see another 1 of this .. hugs def adding this to games im getting for my partner

Yes pls do more of this!

Would love to see you play this again

C’mon man! Landing patterns! Great little series this one!

New mini game? Nice

I was thinking when are the going to land on the river and a minute later, there it went.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="450">7:30</a> wait there are ppl who dont know this? But i as a joke tough right after the plane told it has lost its engines that "it will probably land on the hudson river" but didnt think theyd actually do it

We want Motorway Matt back!

It’s the blue angels

Imagine when Matt figures out how to use hold waypoints

At <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="331">5:31</a> the yellow point is very sus

Tight turns seem to be the least useful thing, but you choose nothing else except that.

More Mini Airways, yes please! Who wants to watch a game that is easy?!?

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="104">1:44</a> ofc it's not cuz this is what he said

i recommend playing crab treasure or something like that... very funny and weird game

Like to see Matt trying a real atc sim.

You need to do another video but make sure you use waypoints next time. I want to see how you go with them

mom! wake up! rce posted another videos about Mini Airways!!!!

Two Parallel runways and still lands and takes off from one runway... classic RCE.

This game looks like fun!

Matt plz oh plz can we revive mini metro?? I’m dying for more

Please replay that puzzle game you got sponsored to play. I really enjoyed it and there still so much more for you to do

To be a bit realistic planes have to go at least 2 loops around the Shanghai airport before landing😆

RCE should play Airport Madness Time Machine

Love this game

Thanks for playing this, do make another video

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="713">11:53</a> gee I wonder what the hold waypoint is for?

I think I played this game on Nintendo DSI almost 15 years ago

Why has matt become so successful. And why do i watch evry single video he posts?

That thumbnail is dangerous

They actually put Captain Sully sullenbergers heroic landing in the Hudson in the game, US Airways Flight 1549 was struck by Canada gooses after takeoff at about 2.800 feet and because it took 35 seconds to Analyse the situation start the APU they couldn’t make it to any airport and ditched in the Hudson. I love how in the game the pilot says Cactus 1539. also how did Matt not realise at first it’s the Miracle of the Hudson. And surprisingly the flight path of the in game plane is pretty accurate to the real flight path.

You said "blue hornets" I think you meant "blue Angels" (the navy's flilght demonstration squadron) The "Thunderbirds" are the same thing but for the airforce.

I know it’s wrong but I like to think this is what air traffic controllers see

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="991">16:31</a>: Since when an airplane leaving the airspace causes an airport to shutdown?!?!?!

the blue hornets hurt my soul

The reason Shanghai airport is right next to restricted airspace is because a large portion of China is restricted, leading to irregular and angular airports

play the other airport game again, enjoyed that one.

I'm screaming at my point to get Matt to use Hold waypoint instead of the expedite to resolve the too many planes in the air waiting to land situation...

Free?

The thumbnail really went dooku mode

More please!!!

In a different perspective this game is about kamikazeing planes into neighbor hoods, why couldnt they have made the map bigger to have other airports

Hi

♥️♥️♥️

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="446">7:26</a>, US Airways 1549

you moaned and said "oh that's tight" so many times that my boyfriend wondered what i was watching 😭

day something of asking Matt to play nimby rails

Lol. BMW. Classic.

Im watchong this at 2 a.m.

Blue angels!

more episodes please RCE Jr.

A bit annoyed that planes receive TCAS alerts, but don't execute RAs

more!

How are you playing this game in the full release?
