Who doesn't, speed?

I mean, my popcorn machine has been running pretty much nonstop while reading this topic.

It's 1015... that leaves it open to be 1015AM or 1015PM, if it was 2215 then yeah I would say it's the 24Hr clock, if it was 1015 (without the AM or PM) I would assume it was the 24Hr clock, but I'm surprised you haven't looked at a clock and seen they only have 12 digits... and noticed that the most common usage of the clock in most of the world (though I accept not all of it) uses am (ante meridiem - before midday) and pm (post mediriem - after midday) in a 12 hour format... Hell it's only been in use since the 2nd century BC and has only recently been displaced by the 24 hour clock in SOME countries... but 12 is still prevalent in the UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand, etc....

Alas, to answer your statement, I have heard of the 24Hr clock, and I actually use it 100% in my life, but I make allowances for people who don't because it is still in pretty common use... I must give you kudos for your usual attempt to belittle someone, but I do think all you did was highlight your own shortsightedness.



No colon is required, the format of the time in 24Hr or 12Hr can be 12:00 or 1200, the only difference is the "am/a.m/pm/p.m" donated after the time. But if I want to be pedantic (why not, let's push the boat out as the terribly "anal" Speed Bird does), the colon should be there irrespective of the time format the only difference should be that the 24Hr clock goes beyond 12 (i.e at 1pm it goes 13:00, and the 12Hr says 1:00pm. And if we want to really get anal there should be a "." after the "a" and "m" or "p" and "m" to give us 1:00 p.m. but lets not get too picky because any average adult will see the time on the boarding pass and understand it means 10 in the fecking morning.

Jesus wept talk about being surrounded by incompetence.

By the way, 4E4L, I like your work and happy new year everyone, hope you all get well and drunk tonight cause I am (already).

sorry to be a nit pick but its meridiem

sorry to be a nit pick but its meridiem

Very true, a small typo. As I said in my post, I am drunk so forgive a typo in a drunken rant. If I was sober there would've been none.

P.s. upon re-reading my original post I notice I had spelled it right first time.

Back on topic, maybe? I'd like to see more of 4E's designs and not some back and forth about how to write the time.

Happy New Year to all! I've still got 3hrs and 40mins to go, so...

[4Engines]

Thanks violet, happy new years to you too! And re: drinks, i was way ahead of - literally On Australian time, I was probably already out by the time you posted

Quora i've got quite a few odds and ends coming up for you so get pumped!

In the meantime, here is a livery for Vienna Airways, two variations, simple but effective

I wish I could. I'm so tired from my recent move and staying up for the new year... not a good combination. No, I'm not drinking and I'm nowhere near old enough to do so, but I still feel . Thanks for giving me the heads up though, I'm sure it will be great!

[4Engines]

Interesting stro, thats a challenge i'd be willing to accept

[4Engines]

In my usual shades of blue and red


And something a little different, a green 4E livery

I thought it was Virgin Australia for a moment Great Work 4E

[Air Scotland]

love the tails of the vienna airways one but the text on the fuselage looks a bit weird
Also the 'Spirit' in the European Spirit planes makes the livery look cramped and OTT prehaps just go for European on the fuse?

all in all though lovely pieces of work keep it up

[clubeurope]

wow thats impressive!

THANK YOU!

[tg23399]

Hello,

I find you're liveries truly amazing and therefore I decided to request a livery from you, if possible.

Airline name: SkyTransit Airlines
Requested aircraft type: A330-200
Requested engine type: RR
Backup aircraft/engine type: 737-800
Country of origin: Singapore / Germany
Registration (May leave blank): D-SKYT
Please tell us a little about your airline, and what sort of things you may want for your livery: We would like the our logo (re-coloured to white) to use up most of the tailfin and we would like the tail-fin background to be light blue with similar tail-fin designs like the Skywest Airlines Australia.
Thank you greatly in advance!
