I don't know much about this but I can say what I remember.

When you build an Air transport Corp, it uses an Airport instead of a production plant.



Historically, airports were only used for this purpose and were ordered automatically when you requested the building of an Air transport corporation. So they were never available for countries to buy.

Now they are used by Assets maintenance corps. Obviously, the above situation was forgotten by the time Assets maintenance was introduced. On the surface of it, it seems to not matter.

However if there are shortages of airports and we need to supply them to our Assets main corps, it would be nice to store a supply in the country and sell them to the corps. However I imagine that once airports are purchased by a country, they cannot be resold?

The GM should do some thinking around this, for sure.

Thank you hymy1.

Yes, I found that in the documentation too.
I was trying to produce Air Transport and took too long to get an airport so I decided to start my own Airport corporation.

I contracted production to my own country but now I have no way to send them to the market.

Yep, figured that would happen. Historically, air transport was profitable. It isn’t now, best to just quit messing with it.
