EuroBusiness - do we need it?

Ok, My view on EuroHolidays has changed alot! Fair enough, I agree with Phil on that one;D

however, to do with the timetable, I think you missed my point a bit. You were saying that it gives a pilot more of a choice for what to fly with, and that's a brilliant idea. I've got nothing against it, but what I meant is that some of the flights are too big for that class. You could fly the Embraer 120 to Zagreb from Athens, or you could fly a Boeing. It's a massive difference. It does give pilots a chance to try that flight if they are only class 3, but having attempting those flights, I found it's too long using a tiny plane like the E120, so i'd suggest C4 EuroHolidays, so at least it's easier.

The LGAV-LDZA is quite a bad example though. A better example is the one Maarten described. It's a bit weird to have such a small flight done with a massive plane.


I have nothing against good options for pilots, it's a great idea, but sometimes, I think some of the flights are a bit un-realistic. I don't want to remove any flights, I just think that some of them need a bit of changing. For the majority, the flights are very accurate, but I think some need a little editing.

Personally, I don't think LGAV-LDZA needs editing. Like you said, it's good to have unrealistic ones, since we are a Virtual Airline, we don't have to be COMPLETELY realistic, but some of the flights that you find make no sense at all. That's the only thing that bugs me.

Certainly some interesting views raised here, so well done for starting the debate Myszkin!

My view is that, as Phil says, the VA needs to appeal to a spectrum of simmers' interests since a community of 160 active pilots is bound to contain a variety of piloting styles...

Personally I'm very glad that we have such a range of interesting aircraft to use and I really like trying flights to destinations with interesting scenery (indeed half the flights I make are to try out new places!) So I'd personally be sorry if we were tied down only to routes and aircraft that are profitable enough to succeed in the cut-throat real world airline market...

Surely one of the beauties of our simulated world is that we can do things that real life won't allow us to..?

Long live EuroBusiness !!!

And besides, if EuroHolidays is a valuable asset to EuroHarmony.... if it went, what would happen to my baby the 757?! ;D;D

EHM-1612 Paolo:
I think the actual situation is perfect. I personally love eurobusiness, but I enjoy Eurocargo and Euroholidays too, so why should we take away one of these???   I am for the variety, we have a huge fleet, 5000 (5000!!!) flights to do, where is the problem? Can't we join this to the reality? ;)

I like things the way they are currently set up. One of the reasons I came here after looking for a home for a couple of months, was the varity the EH offers. Before coming here, I made a breif stop at a VA that flys only real world routes. It didn't take long to lose interest. It was a great VA, it just wasn't for me.

I have only been here a short time, but I truly feel at home and love the variety offered here at EH. I can't wait to start my first tour ! ;D
