Correct, and a certain amount of cash (last 2 rounds it was 500K Euro), but not certainly a B99, it depends on the era and what the admin choose. In the 2000s round it was a ATR-72, in the 1950s it was a DC-3. Next round, we might get the L-410 I'm guessing.

Trust me, I'm not too hyped up about it myself, as my airline can go much further than it is now and I could reach full potential if it was a 10 year round.  :cry:

Has the starting aircraft been chosen yet? Why are we not allowed to know?

As I talked to you before Stephen, it has to be an aircraft that one would use for the whole round or it will be like the Beech B99 right now.

There is a post somewhere with a poll. It looks like it will be 80's. Can we PLEASE have a 10 year round?

1920 start, without multi-world, buying landing rights, with point to point flights, and 10 year-round, without the possibility of early reset.... That would be fun :P  :lol:

Yeah.. you guys should definitely change the game to suit ONE person..
Keep the time where it is, it's easier.

Right now the month change in the west part of the USA is at 2am!!!!!!!! It used to be at 2pm once.

Change @ GMT or at +13 hours or -12 hours.

80's sounds good.
A good aircraft would be the Beechcraft 1900/1900c

The difference lays in the ability to get some unused gates that are released at month change.
I like it the way it is now, it's 10AM here in Sweden :)

That was pretty nice to have a mid-morning reset when I was there over Christmas (right after the morning fika at work ;)).

In multi-worlds, will all worlds be run on the same "clock"? Would it help server loads to off-set monthly changes by a few hours each? That way, you would allow people to choose a more convenient monthly change time.

Better than what we in Florida have, its around 4am here when it happens.  But its not bothering me now, I mean, we had people on the other side of the of the Atlantic and those even more slightly east complaining about how late it was for them, so this time around, it equals out.

Last few resets we had, there was a 24-hour period where the game time was frozen, but people could create routes, rent gates and buy aircraft. That way, everyone had a chance to do something and then just wait until the game actually started. If the same happens this time, there's no real problem.

But in all seriousness...how long is the next round? If it's short then I can skip it (give my friends flying in Japan to beat me lol) and work on getting good grades in my classes. If it's super long...then I gotta jump on the band wagon and join up now cause by the time school lets out and I start...it'll be mid round and darn near impossible to start.

It's gonna be a 10 year round and it is also the first round with multiworlds I suppose.

Oh yes! The ERJ-145ER! :P

(Unless you were thinking of the 532 variants of the A320 family, or the 1093 different B737s...)

Well, that's a valid point, no doubt. Others might argue that less "hip" a/c might make for a more interesting game.
