This is another beta world, What happened to AE7? Where it has gone?

Where all good worlds go...

Thanks for the wider variety of starting aircraft

[Adaptice]

I'll pray to Yux, so that he wont forget starting the game (like the previous open world)

I have an alarm set this time

[Royen]

Good!

Do all the features of beta 3.1(fixed bugs) will be available in this game? Or it will take some more time for 3.1 to complete

It's the same as the other 3.1 worlds, so as bugs are fixed all worlds will be updated.

I don't mean to be a wet blanket, but how is it that the game is only two months old and some airlines already have 10+ airplanes? Did the used plane market just get flooded with planes at the beginning of February or did I miss something else?

See bold.

[Shuan]

See bold.

What bold?

[CaptainStooby]

Ok fine, just checking. Who actually sells their starting plane right away? It gives you a huge disadvantage from the beginning...or at least that's what I would think

[Yuxi]

It seems some people are creating an extra airline to supply aircraft to the used market. Future games will most likely be limited to 1 airline per person for the first year or two.

[Shuan]

That's good. But there is a problem with IFS system, i don't have IFS system on any of the routes but still i have to pay. Why?

[Sheepy]

What bold?

That I highlighted in your quote...

[Giziar]

The amount of recently started and already dissolved airlines is quite remarkable.
In my recent airline news I see the mentioning of 8 startups. 1 only still around.

[richee]

Is it not beter to alow for multiple airlines, but if you sell / bancrupt our own airline / aircraft than your person (and so all your airlines) won't be able to buy your own abdonned aircrafts?

[BritAbroad]

I would suggest making starter aircraft disappear on bankruptcy or sale. This would prevent 5 year old BAC 1-11s appear in 2000

[Sheepy]

Or maybe when you try and sell them, you get a message saying they crashed and can no longer be sold (Insurance has covered the costs, however )
Then again, sometimes they are important for the market. Maybe disallow them to appear on the used market for two years?
