Hey. Wouldn't it be pretty cool if there was an additional map showing your planes in the air? The NWA/KLM world timetable is an excillent example of what I am suggesting. I doubt it'l be takin up but in my opinion it'd be pretty sweet. :(

I also think it would be nice to have a map with all the locations of the airport so you can know which one to get next and how close it is

You can use distance formula... a map like this would take up a lot of bandwidth.. no point having planes in flight just how the game is and would require lots of bandwidth and coding...

i do not think these are needed plain and simple.

Agree. It would no doubt be a cool feature, but I don't think it would be worth the bandwidth and server resources it would take up.

It's pointless to add that, you're not going to be logged into your account to watch your planes 24 hours a day and this would take too long to code, not to mention the bandwidth it would suck up.

That is stupid. You wouldn't even see the map... think how many players there are and then the amount of planes...

You can see how far cities are with the distance calculator.

Wouldn't this feature also mean that the players have to schedule the flights. So yo are able to see when your airplanes are flying.
