Most lucrative routes

Hello everyone, I've been working on saving money from FSAirlines for something nice. I have my eyes set on a Eurocopter 120B. I already have a Piper 180 and a SAAB Safir, but it could be fun with a helicopter. But I was thinking which routes to fly that pays the best salary? The Concorde route is quite a nice usually get around 15-17K for a one-way trip which roughly translates into just over 4k per hour. A flight in the Vanguard from London to Paris yields a little less per hour (2,5 - 3,5k). A Vanguard flight from EGLL to LOWS gives between 5 and 6k in total, so 2,2k per hour.

Any good tip on routes
? :)

Take-care

Hi Andy :)

I think a lot depends on what you're flying. The bigger aircraft with more bums on seats make better revenue for the airline and thus.. better income for the pilot. You might consider getting ratings on either the 747 or TriStar if you want to start making big money ;)
