Game Data / [Fixed]GRZ - Graz Thalerhof Airport - wrong PAX Data

« on: June 20, 2009, 08:23:33 am »

The PAX-number for Graz Airport (GRZ) is wrong, most likely due to a typo:
for 2008, it is abcabc, and not, as in the db, acabc

Game Data / ISU - Sulaimaniyah International Air

« on: November 01, 2008, 09:41:18 am »

ISU     Sulaimaniyah International Air
This airport is in the database as Airport in Georgia. According to the location on the interactive map, it is definitely not Georgia!

According to my Atlas, it is located in Iraq!

General Chat / Re: Critique of new features

« on: October 12, 2008, 09:27:28 am »

I would also highly appreciate maintenance costs per plane.
But back to the new features. I also miss the ability to sort the aircraft fleet by age - several others have already mentioned that in this very thread.
At the moment I have about 70 KFCs in my fleet, ranging from 0 to 5 years. I would like to gradually phase out the oldest of them, but at the moment, finding them is really annoying. That was way better before!

To make the game more realistic, I also have several suggestions (lower maintenance e.g.), but I will open a different threat for them, as I understand this thread is about the critique on the new features.

Game News / Re: Help Airline Mogul - Donate a picture

Nice new page design!
Are you still in need of airport-themed pics?
I made some myself.
I could donate them to AM for free use.
I have to tell in advance, that I am not a professional photographer, but some pics I made are quite good.

So send me a personal message with the adress where to send the pictures.

General Chat / Re: [W10] Transatlantic routes operated by turboprops

« on: October 02, 2008, 08:59:37 am »

At the moment, I operate 4 routes as well, using the Alliance hubs in Paris CDG and London LHR, flying to Gander and Halifax. I use ATR 42-300/320 to serve the routes.
Not that it is very profitable, I just opened these routes in order to being able to post a reply to that topic.

Game Strategy / Re: Best longhaul aircraft in World 10

« on: September 24, 2008, 04:47:55 pm »

I like the Ilyushin Il-96-300 in W-10, but maybe solely due to the fact that I am the only operator of those aircraft. I have two of them in service, and they make good profit out of my hub in TLV.
I also have 2 777-200ER for ultra-long-haul, but the profit was so bad, that I now use them on high-density-short-medium-haul-routes.

An interesting option for semi-long-haul is to use the ATR-42-300/320, as both have range > 3000 nm. They cost very little in purchase, fuel, and maintenance. Although they are very slow and only have 50 seats, they can still make a bundle on routes with little competition.

Game Data / Airports in Mongolia

« on: September 18, 2008, 06:00:26 pm »

By coincidence, I found a description of Mongolian Airports on the Internet:

http://www2.mcaa.gov.mn/pdf/mc/app51.pdf

PAX-data is for 2001, but I guess it is better than nothing. Currently, only ULN is in the DB.

Locations (Coordinates) can be found there:

For quick reference, you can also check out the Wikipedia-article:

General Chat / Guided tours through the Factory Antonov in Kiev?

« on: September 07, 2008, 11:38:08 pm »

Does anybody know something about that?
Some friends and I plan to go to Kiev for a couple of days this autumn, and we would like to visit the Antonov-Factory.
Are there guided tours through the factory? I didn't find any details on the internet.
I already sent an e-mail to the marketing department of Antonov, but no reply so far.
I guess, I should write as my alter ego from Airline Mogul, that I am the CEO of DanAvia in World 10, and I intend to buy a couple of An-225, then they will reply for sure...

Anyways, does anyone know about that?

Thanks and Greetings from Vienna
