Odd one...

Not a real airline but Microsoft use it in FSX. Is that an issue?




I doubt Microsoft licensed that name, secondly they use a totally different livery so I doubt this will be an issue.

Same guy than TWICE before.

His both airlines were closed and PM notification was sent. After second time I repeated the rules with an additional message. Either he has not read those (haven't checked) or he ignores or does not understand.

But this is his third violation so he is banned from the game until the issue is resolved.

The rules are very simple and displayed very clearly on the first page where the airline is made.

It did go bust a while ago, I mean you can't expect everyone to remember which airlines went bust. That just seems to be, well I'm based in istanbul so I should be called Istanbul Airlines. I googled it, it didn't look like it existed, so why not

I have no prob with realworld names but the same group now operates as a bus company. Just named here

There's a chance this is okay, but to cover all the bases...

US Airways still owns the rights to the name after they purchased them.

In Air Travel Boom: Air France International https://www.airwaysim.com/game/Info/Others/Airline1221/
Air France sounds familiar to me :P , Its an airline based in Paris (France) ;)

Jupiter

CP Airlines is still being used. This time in Air Travel Boom.

I like that they don't even try to hide the Canadian flag on the livery despite being based out of Japan. :)

Just wanting to check something but in Beginners world 7, there is another airline with the same name, just has Southern Airlines as opposed to my Southern Airways. Just wanting to check and see if there needs to be a change or what not.
