How to Get Planes on Airport Tycoon 3

"Airport Tycoon 3" is a business simulation game published by Global Star Software and released for the PC in 2003. The game --- the second sequel to "Airport Tycoon" which debuted in 2000 --- has the player taking the role of an airport manager who guides the creation of an airport from the ground up. Acquiring planes for use at your airport requires completing all of the steps to build your airport, then acquiring hangar contacts from the airlines in the game.
