Adding aircraft earlier than that would require a massive data collection mission, of which BritAbroad wants a serious break from it last I heard. (Collecting/Inputting data for 1960-1970 really burned him out.)

Even collecting data from newer aircraft can really burned me out, you know?

A 1946 onwards world would be great but would take work to be totally realistic. You would have to add(Croydon, Le Bourget, Templehof, Islip)/remove( Gatwick, London City, Paris-CDG) airports and plenty of planes could be added. How about the Handley page Hermes, sud-est Langudoc, SAAB Scania plus all the Convairs, Martin 4-0-4 and the Bristol Brabazon as a laugh! I am a published aviation historian and would hapilly research this era in terms of aircraft specs. The only draw back is that in real life in 1950 passenger demand would be about 95% less than today, but fares much higher!
Airports run off of one database and don't have open/close dates, so that would be an issue. (AE 4.0 will fix it in about a decade ).
As for all those aircraft mentioned, take that up with the data collectors. Quite honestly, they may be a little irritated and worn out from the last data push, but .
Finally, the demand and the fares would be something to take up with the developers of the game (Yuxi/un1).

How about those people that really want the time erasget the data themselves. i'll give you an example of what you could send them to speed up the process. it's not all but they might be more willing.

You can always submit new aircraft requests, but you are going to have to find more data from reliable sources (read: not Wikipedia).

also add Kemayoran(closed at 1985),Hongkong Kai Tak,etc!

I will look at moving R1 back to 1950 after the reset (or add another R0 - 1950 world then). No promises though

Partly to allow some older aircraft to appear in the used market when the game starts in 1960.
As for the other requests, a number of older aircraft have already been approved. Its just about finding the time for me to collect and examine the data.
I would like to see a 1945-2012 world, to be honest, if the game could handle it, but that remains to be confirmed and will require more data collection.
