Which country do you come from?

[Phetoy6]

Hi Guys,

I'm not sure if this kind of thread has been made or not. I had difficult time to find one. In the more-than-2 years of AirwaySim existence (at least that is how long I have been here), I think it is nice to know our compatriots. It is possible to gather in each country or just having a chit chat over this interesting simulation with your compatriots. I will help you listing/making a database of members with their country. Hopefully this will trigger our mod to have at least a flag beside the poster's name in the forum board. :-)

Here's some general level stats:  https://www.airwaysim.com/forum/index.php/topic,28248.0.html

(not very comprehensive though .. we run Google Analytics too but that includes all visitors then, not just the active users)

[Phetoy6]

Thank you Sami,

But I actually wonder if there is a way I could find, let's say other Indonesian friends, with whom I can discuss more (comfortably) in our language about the game, exchanging views, and of course: promoting this great game to our society! ;-)

[Troxartas86]

Boring old USA for me, frequently flying between TPA and ACY.

[alexgv1]

UK here, good idea will help people find compatriots 

[AUpilot77]

USA! The great state of Michigan.

[psw231]

 Canada here, you could do what I have done and add fellow countrymen to your buddy list as you find them, I have compiled a list with 66 Canadian AWS'ers and have used this to form an all Canadian alliance in JA5. It is time consuming to do but if you check airlines bases in Indonesia in each game you play. I would guess that you will find a good number of those in the AWS community, also check new members line at the bottom of the forum page as I have found quite a few that way.

Good luck!

USA as well, Ohio and a Buckeyes fan. Glad to see you guys finally beat OSU this year

Thanks! It is an idea, but I would like to stick with one way to report your nationality for now. Let see how much attention this thread could gather attention. If thinks go not really well, perhaps next week, I would find another way, e.g. bugging you through PM asking the data you have!

[sansa93]

USA! The great state of Michigan.

Where we know the state like the back of our hand!


I'm from the U.S. as well, Michigan to be more specific.

Greetings from Under the Sea... 

It's pretty obvious when you get a first glimpse of the Netherlands, that the country is flat.  Very flat... :-) In fact, you can often see for miles around.  And what's more, a quarter of the land is below sea level.

Fancy a quick tour?

How do you protect Amsterdam from a sea? Well... you build a 35 kilometre dam....


Just a few miles south we enter the Anna Paulona polder...


Ah... yes... the Zaanse Schans... Threatened with demolition 35 houses were bought and relocated to a museum. Resulting in this lovely scene...



And since last year Zaandam, a city just north of Amsterdam got a bigger one which house a hotel and some offices.


Well, lets take a train from here cause driving your car in Amsterdam is horrible... 



Well, that was only a 12 minute trip to Amsterdam City centre.

Whoops, wrong neighbourhood....   

Just a nice nightshot of the "Magere Brug"


Did you know that Amsterdam is one of the "Greenest" city's in the world?


Over 30.000 of them parked here, and still there is not enough space... I present to you the "Bicycle flat"


Well, we can't forget one of our economic engines can we? For many this is where they get their first contact with the Dutch. NOTAM: Runway is way below sea level so don't be tricked by your altimeter.


Okay, were now just south of Amsterdam and we want to go to Rotterdam. By car it takes over an hour, no direct buses and by train we have to go via The Hague...

Let's fly with FYRA

Ow... not fast enough.... okay, from December 2012 we do it at twice the speed...


Right... Rotterdam. Well... As I'm from Amsterdam myself I do not like this city. But it has it's history. Holland fought brave... but "He who must not be named" forces the Dutch to surrender by destroying the city completely...




Just west of Rotterdam you'll find the Maesland kering. This massive movable dam will protect Rotterdam and the land behind it from flooding during extreme weather conditions in combination with surge tide.


It has been closed for shipping traffic only once (during a test) and has remained open since. The Dutch hope they will never have to use this kit to keep the water out. We build to protect, not to use it.


There were two events last century that made the Dutch realise that we are just a small country. The first was the second world war, with the second disaster just less then ten years later... When weather turned to the worst....

The Delta Works is a series of construction projects in the southwest of the Netherlands to protect a large area of land around the Rhine-Meuse-Scheldt delta from the sea. The works consist of dams, sluices, locks, dikes, levees, and storm surge barriers. The aim of the dams, sluices, and storm surge barriers was to shorten the Dutch coastline, thus reducing the number of dikes that had to be raised.

Along with the Zuiderzee Works the Delta Works have been declared one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World by the American Society of Civil Engineers.

Well, that was a short impression of the country I live in.
Greetings from Almere (-6 meters)

Born in England, but currently living in Canada, although writing this post from Germany...

[Phetoy6]

Hei Marteen!

Thank you, nice introduction and pictures! Turns out you live in Almere! I have a family living there as well!

[dhtdkcug]

I'm the first one here from the middle east so far!
Greetings to all from tiny israel!

From Netherlands and Turkey

Right... Rotterdam. Well... As I'm from Amsterdam myself I do not like this city. But it has it's history. Holland fought brave... but "He who must not be named" forces the Dutch to surrender by destroying the city completely...

For me it is the other way round; as I'm from Rotterdam, I don't like the city of Amsterdam (although I do study in our "capital city").

The Sint-Laurenskerk is the only remnant of the medieval city of Rotterdam...
Here in it current status:

Here just after the bombing of Rotterdam:
