Game World #1 is one of the four main airline sim scenarios at AirwaySim and this new game starts again in the year 1960 and continues to 2030. Be in charge of your own airline for 70 years, from the Early Days era all the way to the Future.

Setup notes for the game play: Passenger demand levels are much larger than in real history at the start of the game. After several decaces the pax rates will slowly approach the normal/real historical rates but will still remain rather high. For most parts of the future there will be steady growth for the pax number but occasional periods of slower growth or even recessions have been tuned into the pax figures.

At the start of the game the factors for shorthaul traffic is elevated while longhaul demand is slightly smaller than in standard situation. These will slowly move towards the standard setting as decades progress.

Fuel prices are random and may or may not follow the historical oil/jet fuel developments (or a combination of both where it follows the real history at some periods and is random at others).

The inflation index is non-historical and completely linear this time (larger inflation at the early years than in real life, and slower inflation in later years).

Interest rates follow historical data.

Aircraft production rates are currently set to 2x of the normal rate.

Amount of airport slots is elevated compared to the standard setting.

Remember that the popular aircraft models will soon be limited in supply at the used aircraft market. Do not count your expansion to their supply!

Remember that airports and geopolitical changes are modelled after real history. Not all airports are open yet, and you may not expand your airline to other countries inside European Union until much later in the game.

And as always, be patient with the route sales figures since your Route Image grows slowly. You have a plentiful cash supply to start with and the fuel prices are currently very low but remember to keep cash in reserve if something unexpected happens!
