is it possible to have a world where its entirely real time? because i thin that would be pretty neat. if the developers could figure a way to do that, it would push the realism factor to the MAX. of course, there are people out there that prefer the normal condensed worlds, but im sure that some people; myself included, would be more than interested in such a world. maybe they could think about it. if they do add a real time world, you can bet that i will play on it. that would be a world with virtually no limitations. i mean, think about it; there could be realistic timetabling, realistic weather, fluctuating fuel costs, varying demand depending on the market and time of day, etc. the possibilities are ENDLESS!

No, it will be ridiculous for everyone to be fed up with real life days, and they'll be bored of it anyways.

Little Pipers take two weeks for initial delivery and one week between each subsequent delivery. So even if I amass a small fleet of about ten, it'd take me months. Now imagine trying to get a fleet together, that would take years! Also, Cyber Airlines has a similar system to this, and we all know how that's going for them...

Maybe a 1day/1hour or 1day/2hours would be good....

Not all forms of realism are desirable. With the failure rates and profit margins of real-world airlines, the "game" would not be very fun at all.

Those are feature requests, not world requests. Most of what you mentioned (including 28/30/31-day months) are deep structural changes and will have to wait for AE 4.

With the sped up time, I've never found (semi) realistic profit margins to be particularly annoying...
