Hong Kong Airways today announces its new logo design.



The new logo design has been inspired by the main sail of Dukling, a traditional Hong Kong fishing boat and an icon of Hong Kong. It signifies the roots of Hong Kong, with a modern touch of simplicity.

The new logo will be progressively rolled out to our fleet and facilities.

What program did you make?

3864

I wrote a code breaking programme last year for my coursework. It replaced an alphabet with another alphabet to decipher a message set by my lecturer. I spent tons of time de-bugging it.

You don't like it?
I had programming (java) in high school, two hours a week. The exam was so easy, just sound like you know something and you're all set

The teaching wasn't that intuitive. Every time my lecturer taught us new concepts, he always put something else new in the example. It just made understand what he was teaching harder.

Hong Kong Airways is happy to announce the founding of 3 bases, including 2 overseas. These expansion plan means that we now serve 445 destinations throughout the world, much more than any other airline.

San Francisco is a world famous city on the West Coast of the USA. Home to 7.44 million people, with a significant Chinese-American population, it is a perfect fit for setting our overseas base. We offer 62 flights out of San Francisco a day.

With Canada having the largest Hongkonger community outside Hong Kong, we looked no further than Toronto in setting our next overseas base. Aiming to provide a broad network of destinations, we now offer 47 flights a day from Toronto Pearson.

Recognising the shortcoming in our Indian network, we have set a base in Delhi to expand our Indian network. We will also be flying to western China and the Himalayan countries from Delhi.

Here is our current network:


At Hong Kong Airways, we strive to provide our customers with flights to anywhere of their choice, and with a seamless travel experience on the way. We are updating our fleet with the brand new Bombardier CRJ-701LR for long, thin routes. They are substantially faster than our current fleet of Fokker 70s, slashing your journey time.

Finally, we have not forgotten about Hong Kong. Our recent investment in a new air terminal shows our determination to continue adding flights from Hong Kong, our home base.

cout << "Hello World! " << endl;

And this is what language, exactly?

3856

C++
It means output "Hello World!" to the screen, and then start a new line

I was thinking about America West, which started in 1983 with 3 737s and had ~70 planes by 1987.

Anyway, North America is larger. Therefore, I would prefer it if either the EU or NA must be chosen.

I am against making rules to limit starting areas to Europe or North America. It also limits the possibility of worldwide partnership (alliance). In addition, people will immediately opt for the largest airports in the region (i.e. O'Hare and Heathrow). But it would not be realistic should 5 airlines have a base at the same airport.

The starting plane should be a pair of small RJs with no more than 80 seats. Considering it is just 7 years of gameplay, plus being realistic, it is quite hard to grow the airline into a large size, say the current AA, or Emirates. Alternatively, it could be a larger plane (?150 seats) that is going out of production as soon as the starting year. That would render airlines impossible to buy a large number of the plane.

Anyway, if we must limit our starting areas to one continent, how about something new?
How about Greater China (PRC+ROC+HK+Macau+Mongolia)?
