need help with phpvms finances

[citationx]

I am trying to create a realistic airline, but I seem to have run into finance issues lately. The pricing per ticket is inline with what real world airlines are charging, but fuel seems to be so high that it makes the route not profitable. Is this a common issue and is there a work around for it?

What I have done is get the average fuel price from my hubs and used that price per lb.

[OA01]

The default fuel price is $5.10 p/lb, WAY to high!!! The real world price is $0.44 p/lb!!! Edit your \\core\local.config.php file and make it look like this (Mine is in Euro):

/*   Fuel info - Price correct as of 13-06-14. Sum=price(p/g) / 6.7 then convert to Euro
 Default fuel price, for airports that don't have live pricing
And the surcharge percentage. View the docs for more details about these
*/
Config::Set('FUEL_GET_LIVE_PRICE', true);
Config::Set('FUEL_DEFAULT_PRICE', '0.32');
Config::Set('FUEL_SURCHARGE', '0.0');
