Please refer to the changelog entry from 31st Jul 2025; https://feedback.airwaysim.com/changelog/updates-18
--> "Salary calculation rules updated. The salaries are now based on the cost/salary levels of each base country instead of the HQ country."


Should this update be implemented also to this game world? We have still 1.5 yrs of run time left, and for game balance and level playing field this update would be reasonable.

The change would be made at a predetermined game date 1968-01-01 (approx. one month of real time from today).

Please VOTE and COMMENT.

I think this would be fair

Are there also change of rules planned for well-known game tricks to avoid high taxes?
Like starting in GUM eg

Makes the game more realistic. Tax evasion is a thing in real life, but you can't evade local salaries by basing elsewhere in real life, so applying local salaries depending on the base is just common sense.
