As the next GW2 is set to begin later this month, I need to base my GW2 airline at some airport where I can introduce many new routes as time goes by. Thus, I want some help from whoever has pre-joined the next GW2, too... (you do not need to have pre-joined the next GW2 to vote)

In real life, totally agreed. Except internet is somewhat difficult to find and/or extremely expensive/restricted. Other than that it's been one of the best trips I have ever had.

In terms of AWS I would recommend Ulaanbaatar (ZMUB).

Can't believe I didn't think of Ulaanbaatar!

I made a rather deep analysis of UlanBataar, a few years ago. My conclusion was :

PC12 for domestic flights
ERJ145XR for foreign flights.

And that's it. There is no other choice, and you're bored to death once you filled 12 planes or so. And Cargo is a no-go either.

Of course, neither PC12 nor ERJ145XR are available in 1955,which makes the country basically unplayable.

Have you considered double tech stops with C46?

If only..

I think it'd be interesting if ABCDCBA flights were allowed out of smaller airports.

Hey, don't laugh. One of my earliest games started out flying transcon US with tech-stopped C46.

When no one can get metal to fly with demand is slow to be filled, so it works....initially.
