Which NG airliner do you think will be the most succesful?
To me, I think 787 will be the most successful because it is fuel-efficient and its size is good. B747-8's market might be taken away by 777-300ER. A380 is simply way too big.

Hey we could reset in the 50 as far as i know, the reset date is generated automatically in NW.

Imagine starting the round with a War Surplus DC-3...

Or they could be really mean and start us with a DHC-3 Otter somewhere in the 70's...

Do they choose the plane for each game, or is it also randomly chosen?

EDIT - Starting with DC-3 would be quite funny :)

In fact, we did started with a DC3 in the 50s round. See some older posts on the forum and you'll see.

Yep, I can remember it. Pretty strange it was, as I didn't have much competition in Gdansk, but still couldn't get a nice DOP :D

Is your question real life or AM related?

Surely the 787 would win the battle. Demands are really high.

Do you know that the communists are trying to counterfeit A350 which is copying 787? If I am not wrong, the plane's name is CS2010.

Post by: Chavaquiah on April 05, 2008, 10:00:52 am
Well, the A350 has wings and will fly, just like the 787. So, yes, it's copying the 787.

And if the "communists"  :roll: design their own big jets than surely they'll be counterfeiting the A350.

i say the A350 became mentoined too early after the 787 that it was so obvious they were copiying it, and id focus on getting the A380's built which is very lacking.

Post by: sam051 on April 05, 2008, 10:13:15 am
The only reason why they are producing the A350 is because they got demanded to, they were actually not going to compete. But from demand they redesigned and it turned out almost exactly like the A330, companys weren't happy, so they had to rethink and put in a new idea which in turn concieved the A350.....

I think the Bombardier C110 will be a huge hit! New aircraft that is super quiet, super efficient and green. "Apparently" better than any other single aisle aircraft available today (economically and efficiency wise). To be released in 2013......
