Please see the question above ... And feel free to comment.

I actually like the present time ratio.   ;)

Anything faster and I will get no sleep at home or work done at the office.
Anything slower and I'll have to play 2 or more games simultaneously.

I want 24 minutes = game day. It would be nice and easy to understand, if 2 game months == 1 real day.

I like 25 minutes, 30 minutes makes the game a bit too drawn out I know its only an extra 5 minutes per game day but its too long in my opinion  ;)

I like this 30 minutes rate lot more than previous 24 min/day.

Most important difference is, that important events don't happen during your working day or during night.
You should have enough time to program schedules before plane is delivered. 8 hours simply isn't enough, 10,5 hours is a lot better.
If rate is faster, then also this pre-programming period should be longer.

Like it as it is: 30 mins

Everyone doesn't want to play this game 24/7, and if it is too much of an disadvantage not logging in more than once everyone second day I wouldn't play. There are simply to many games that work this way (need to log in all the time to stay competetive) and I've lost interest in all of them. That's why I prefer it this way (at least 30 min for a game day).

Make hi-speed games for those who want quicker games and wants to spend days in front of the computer staying up-to-date.

There are already advantages of people spending more time; more quickly adjusting to competition, scouting better routes, setting up better schedules etc. etc. So, please don't make it a quantity before quality game, there are already enough advantages for those who doesn't do anything except this.

On top of this, I'd like to have more time ahead of a delivery of an aircraft to start setting up it's routes, at least the amount of time a slot can be held (is it 2 months?) to make it easier for people that can't log in that often.

How about keeping those 30 mins (or more) per game day and use it for some serious computing regarding real passenger destinations and routings? That would definately be serious quality ahead of quantity! (Know it's on the to-do-list, can't wait! :) )

I agree with Tommy,s comments, I think there are other areas of the game that would benefit from changes rather than gameplay speed, works fine as it is.

One of my particular preferences would be in the 'Open new route' menu. Is there any way you can add a feature that allows you to filter destination by pax demand. For instance say I want to list only routes from my base to Europe that have a pax demand of over 300 per day. As far as I know at the moment you cant do this.

I really like the current time - i prefer when they're faster, but I really don't mind - it is easier for many people when it is 30 minutes/day. No faster than 24 minutes/day - but no slower than 30 minutes/day.

I wonder who voted for real time. I just can't imagine that I order aircraft and will have to wait 3 real months to get it.

I also like it the way it is. When you are actively playing the game it sometimes is to short, but for example when sleeping the time seems to fly ;)
