Read the subject field......

I'd love to get into a game where I can see everything and then put a weekly (human time) report about the game's progress. 

Perhaps Sami, you'd set me up at an obscure airport???  Just an idea.

I'd love to discuss Alliance information, major routes, major airports....

I buy into every game just so I can sit there and have access to the world so that I can help people and answer their question I get via PM or that people ask on the Forums.

I think Sami likes the added income, personally.  :) Not much incentive for him to give free access to a game.

the incentive is adding any sense of customer fulfillment.  Something to strive for.  What would it in turn cost him, however????

IMHO it's a bit nonsense to pay if you don't really play but just instead look around. But appreciate what Sigma is doing to help other players anyway.

Arranging a sort of "spectator mode" is a bit tricky with the current system though.

Sure sure, Sami, but it wouldnt be hard to let someone play (I guess, for free) out of a never used airport, either.

How about some small airfield named: Barra (EGPR) < 850m Sand runway, with not even 10pax on a domestic flight to LHR :P !!
or somewhere in an african dessert?
maybe some "airport" in the alps, where you have some 200 or 300 m rwy ;D

yeah, max airline size = 1.  And its got to be a LET

;D LOL!!!

well... I guess I'd run crazy, if someone would fly such crap to LHR!

btw. though this is a bit off topic: Are special kinds of aircraft banned from some airports (except for noise restictions [707 in Australia e.g.]) like no TUP or IL may land in the US (I could really think of that :P )?? *


*In Real Life ;)

No restriction on planes, yet.

Svalbard and Qaanaaq, two of the northernmost airports in the game. Cold and isolated.
