Title: Invitation to new Private World (1972 to 2015)
Post by: Thunderstruck on April 17, 2016, 10:49:21 pm
Dear Players,

A new world has been created, and you are invited to set up an airline, and join us!

World Name: LEGENDARY WORLD (private world #3154)

Game Years: 1972 to 2015 (43 years!)

Starting Aircraft: 2 X Fokker 27-200

Bases allowed per player : Infinite (homebase continent), and maximum 10 (foreign continents).

The advantages of playing in this world are that I will regularly monitor it and remove bankrupt airlines (thus ensuring defunct airlines do not saturate the game/market). Also, I will have the occasional changes of the starting aircraft, which will help attract new players over the +40 year game period.

We hope to see you there!

Thunderstruck.

I am interested, but I will try to stay small as not to get too many routes to replace :)

Any special rules?

Dear Matias,

It would be great to have you in the game! and an honor, too...

Small airlines are also welcome: the real world is full of them (Luxair, Atlantic Airways, Air Macau, usw.)
It would be fun to have several of them in this game world, too.

There are indeed 3 simple rules, to make this a harmonious game world.

1. Realistic Airline Names

2. Airline Codes must follow the ICAO standard (3 letters)

3. Maximum route frequency : 5

Hope to see you there, and please let me know if you have any comments/suggestions.

Thunderstruck.

Thunderstruck, would you be interested in having a broker in this world? As I'm having a small airline, I thought I could provide those services. A broker will make growth faster and make the world more attractive for other players :)
Title: Re: Invitation to new Private World (1972 to 2015)
Post by: Thunderstruck on April 20, 2016, 11:20:07 pm
Hello again,

The offer sounds good, and it seems it would bring some additional spice to the world: so you may definitely proceed.

However I am unfamiliar with the broker system. Is there anything I need to do, or do you set it up from your end?

Merci.

Post by: 1993matias on April 21, 2016, 07:56:52 pm
Brokers get discount from the manufacturers if they resell or lease the aircraft directly to other airlines right away, making for more growth. Now, in such a small world it won't be possible to sustain a broker alone, so that's why I ask for permission to have both airline and brokerage :)

You should just tell Stephen, he'll make the change in a few days
Title: Re: Invitation to new Private World (1972 to 2015)
Post by: Thunderstruck on April 22, 2016, 09:32:59 am
Thank you for the clarification.

I have sent an email to Stephen to ask him to set this up.

Looking forward to this broker opportunity.

Take care,

Thunderstruck.

Been a very long time since I last played Airlines Mogul, so I guess I will give it a try again in this world :)

Middle Eastern Airlines opened up in Dubai.

Joined a few days ago.
I can proudly claim myself as the fastest growing airline in Asia.

Because I am the only airline homebased in Asia  :lol: :lol: :lol:

I've heard many stories of your worlds Thunder, I hear that they're always well managed.

Greetings MiraiAir,

Firstly welcome to the game world! I suppose you are playing as Red Dot based out of Japan? If so, your airline is off to a successful start :)

My Airline (Pacific Aero) has set up our first base in Asia (Beijing) and we will be opening another base out of that amazing continent within the next few years. I am pleased to see another airline flying those Eastern skies, and hope in time that more will join.

I appreciate your comments about the way my worlds are managed - I enjoy lengthy games spanning several decades, and I like to see them stay vibrant. 

Let me know whenever I can assist in the game, and I wish your airline rapid expansion and structured development.

Kind regards,

Thunder

There are too many routes to show on one map now, but here are the current hubs, colour coded as follows:
Red: Pacific Aero (Thunderstruck)
Blue: Italian Airways
Green: AussieWings (me)
Purple: Other airlines

(http://www.gcmap.com/map?P=C:RED%0d%0aPEK,HKG,%0d%0a%0d%0aC:NAVY+%0d%0aHKG,HND,%0d%0a%0d%0aC:VIOLET+%0d%0aSIN,%0d%0a%0d%0aC:GREEN+%0d%0aSYD,ADL,ASP,AKL,BNE,MEL,PER&MS=wls2&MR=540&MX=540x540&PM=b:diamond14%2b%25N)

(http://www.gcmap.com/map?P=C:RED%0d%0aORD,DFW,DEN,JFK,PHL,SFO,SEA,IAD%0d%0a%0d%0aC:NAVY+%0d%0aDEN,ATL,SLC%0d%0a%0d%0aC:VIOLET+%0d%0aORD,LAX,YVR,YYC,YYZ,IAH,CLT,MCO&MS=wls2&MR=300&MX=720x360&PM=b:diamond14%2b%25N)

(http://www.gcmap.com/map?P=C:RED%0d%0aIST,CDG,VIE,%0d%0a%0d%0aC:NAVY+%0d%0aAMS,DXB,LHR,MAD,ORY,FCO%0d%0a%0d%0a%0d%0aC:VIOLET+%0d%0aKEF,MAD,BCN,AGP,PMI,MUC,BHX,SEN,DUB,&MS=wls2&MR=540&MX=720x360&PM=b:disc7%2b%25N)

Omitted are the following three bases: Bogota (Pacific Aero), Sao Paulo GRU and Johannesburg (Italian Airways)

I can really recommend starting in Asia, as only Beijing and Australia have competition. The Americas south of the US border is quite free too, although many "minor" US airports are free to base in. Come join this entertaining world!

Post by: Thunderstruck on November 30, 2016, 09:04:36 am
Those are really cool maps, thanks for creating them Matias!

And yes - plenty of room for new airlines to participate, please feel welcome to join the world!

Post by: 1993matias on December 26, 2016, 09:35:00 pm
This world might have been around for long now, but there is still plenty of space (maybe not that much in the US...), see for yourself in the maps below:

North America
(http://www.gcmap.com/map?P=SEA,DEN,SFO,DFW,ORD,IAD,PHL,JFK,%0d%0aDEN,ATL,LAX,LAS,EWR,PHX,CLT,SLC,BOS,SEA,MIA,BWI,%0d%0aYVR,YYZ,YYC,YUL,&MS=wls2&MR=300&MX=720x360&PM=b:diamond12%2b%22%25N%2212)

Europe
(http://www.gcmap.com/map?P=CDG,AMS,IST,VIE%0d%0aLHR,MAD,ORY,FCO,%0d%0aBCN,PMI,KEF,EDI,MAN,BHX,FRA,MUC,OSL,SEN,STN,DUS,&MS=wls2&MR=300&MX=720x360&PM=b:diamond12%2b%22%25N%2212)

Asia

(http://www.gcmap.com/map?P=HKG,PEK,SIN,HND,ICN,%0d%0a%0d%0a%0d%0aASP,PER,MEL,SYD,ADL,AKL,&MS=wls2&MR=540&MX=540x540&PM=b:diamond12%2b%22%25N%2212)


Omitted are Bogota and a few hubs with fewer than ten flights.
Big airports with no airlines based (or very few flights) are shown below. Red colour is for airports larger than 30 000 000 passengers and violet is for smaller than that.
(http://www.gcmap.com/map?P=C:RED,%0d%0aMEX,DTW,MSP,MCO,GRU%0d%0aCGK,BKK,NRT,BOM,CAN,DEL,KUL,PVG,DXB,%0d%0aLGW,%0d%0a%0d%0aC:VIOLET%0d%0aLGA,FLL,%0d%0aKMG,CTU,TPE,SZX,XIY,%0d%0aDME,CPH,AYT,ARN,ZRH,&MS=wls2&MR=1200&MX=720x360&PM=b:diamond12%2b%22%25N%2210:black/:white)
London is Gatwick airport, Shanghai is both Pudong and Honqiao, Tokyo is Narita, New York is La Guardia and Moscow is all.
(EDIT on Jan 3rd: Shanghai Pudong and Bangkok are now taken)

In-game forum is here, it's lively and so is the aircraft market.

And once again, thanks Matias for the great hub maps! it makes it all the more fascinating.

Post by: Thunderstruck on October 30, 2017, 08:19:00 am
Hi there,

I am so glad you enjoyed this world. I did too, it was fun and dynamic, and spanned through the decades.

Sadly, as must happen sometimes in life, I lost my job and am currently looking for another one. This means I do not have the funds to create another world at this moment.
When times are better, I certainly will create a new world, and let you know for sure!

In the meantime, I have been playing a world that has so far been handled well : Private World #3270

I am sure that world would be happy to see any new players join as well.

Take care & thanks as always for the excellent running of Airline Mogul!!

Hi Thunderstruck,

I'm sorry to hear. Thank you for the invitation, I have joined as Viking Airlines out of Copenhagen. I am sure this will be an enjoyable world too, I'll see you there :)

That is great Matias!

I'm playing as Southern Orient Airways, and this airline will operate mostly in Asia, but we will connect destinations on most continents sometime in the future.

Glad that you joined this world, it is always fun to share the skies with you!

Hi guys,

I'm sorry to hear about what had happened, Thunderstruck. Hope your situation improves soon.

Seeing that both of you are in PW#3270, I wish to join too! :D See you in there! I think I will be Union Airlines.

Do tell us when you are going to create another world, though! I would love to join it . :)

Hi there Anzatax,

Thanks for the kind words. Would be great to see you in that world. Let us know which airline you finally create.

I'll let you fine fellows know once I get around to creating a new world. Let's all enjoy this one for now!

Take care,

Thunderstruck

I have finally joined! My airline is Union Airlines International (http://www.airlinemogul.com/show_airline.php?id=82766&wid=3270). I started in Singapore, so don't expect much growth from UAI since the DC-3 has a very short range, and Singapore is far from any good airports :P
Title: Re: Invitation to new Private World (1972 to 2015)
Post by: Thunderstruck on November 04, 2017, 12:06:42 pm
That's great & welcome!

Singapore is a challenging location to launch operations with short-ranged aircraft. But it is a very large airport, and once you get the momentum going, you should be doing just fine.

Good luck & happy flyings!
