Suggestion to a new game-world: 1930-1960

[Knud B]

When "Rise of the Modern Airliners" ends I think it will be fun to play a game in 1930-1960 starting with DC3 and similar...
And the WW2 time (1939-1945) could be a real challenge to airliners in Europe and Asia... Maybe an airplane would be lost now and then...

This type of game has been discussed in depth. The biggest problems that Sami has presented are that it would be tough to model that time period because of low passenger numbers. And second is that due to low numbers, it would be tough to get full planes. He said this could become viable once he has coded a way to allow demands to be transferred to a single day. For example, the route has a demand for 15 passengers per day. But a flight with seats for 100 people could come in once a week on Tuesday and the 15 people from each seven days would fly on  Tuesday. This is the way they did it back in the golden years. But until these two issues can be fixed, a scenario such as this aren't viable. But it sure would be fun.

This model can still be used at some places - at small airports - round the world :-)
