Airport catchment area / vehicle cloning
Been playing this game since release back in the 90s, Open TTD has improved it out of sight, but just a couple of things, Sydney Australia has a population of around 4-5 million, 1 airport services it, can this be done in this game? ! airport services 1 town, no catchment areas. And #2 is clones are made by single click ie click on clone button, click on vehicle, repeat...... a button, say "x5" for 5 at a time could be implemented to bypass tedious cloning. Cheers and keep up the good work!

Make use of transfer orders. People take transport to the airport and don't walk there. Thus establish bus, tram and rail services which simply transfer passengers to the airport - and then fly them to remote stations. You can in principle attach other stations to the airport via ctrl+click and thus extend it's area of direct influence.
cloning:
choose clone and click or ctrl+click on the vehicle you want to clone as often as you need it cloned (ctrl+click makes it a shared schedule of the vehicles, while simple click makes it a separate set of orders). So... one click per vehicle to clone doesn't sound too much to me. I rarely want more than 20x the same vehicle cloned
