EuroBusiness - do we need it?

<< < (2/4) > >>

EHM-0005 Maarten:
Or LFSR - LFPG :]

I know the MT is working on the timetable, so it'll all be fine.

EHM-1689 Lukasz:
Robert, Matt

I always thought, that a "charter role" was playing by Euroholiday.:D Eurobusiness is typical charter division? - well, it's interesting point of view.

Different people - different opinion :>

Greetings.

EHM-1001 Robert:
Okay okay, the Holidays role is more a charter in real world, but not in EHM. ;D

EHM-1703 Philip:
Why is EuroHolidays the most unreal division? What about Monarch, Thompsonfly, (Ex Britannia) My Travel (Ex Airtours) these are all real world charter airlines that operate almost solely to transfer pax to their Package Holiday destination even major airlines operates charter flights to Holiday destinations. (most carry cargo as well by the way)

With regards to the timetable, now you have opened a can of worms there!

Yes, some routes use multiple classes in different divisions, some even have the same route in the same division operated on different classes. (Lookup EGCC-EGLL) This serves a purpose though, to give you, the Pilot, more choices! You can choose the destination, the division and the aircraft. Whats wrong with that?

So this begs my next question, as Pilots what do you want? Realism or Options..... Lets face it, how many real world Airlines operate a schedule of over 5,000 flights per week? After doing a small search on OAG of the Flights listed above (LGAV-LDZA & LFSR-LFPG) I found it is not possible to fly direct on either of these routes in  the real world so therefore should we remove it from the schedule? Should we only include routes that are operated in the real world? If so, I defy you to find a definitive source of Cargo operations for me to copy so should we remove the Cargo division because we can not gaurantee it's realism? :P

Seriously though , I am interested as the timetable has become my baby. The last flights we added were realistic flights that are operated in the real world by a similar type of aircraft to the one offered in our timetable, do you want us to remove flights that are unrealistic or not flown by Real World operators?

In short what we are trying to do is appeal to both camps, the Pilots that want ultra real operations have that option, the pilots who just want to jump in a plane and fly from A to B cause they like the scenery or they live near by have that option also, I don't think it is a matter of rethinking the schedule, I think it is a matter of a Pilots personal choice and I for one don't want to limit that.

EHM-1651 Christian:
I totally agree with Phil on this issue, as an "independent" VA, not trying to replicate any realworld Airline. I think we should stay away from restricting ourselves to routes only flown by real airlines. My opinion is that most realistic sectors are covered aswell as sectors not flown by any airline. So for those who prefeere to fly realistic sectors they are free to do that, and those of us who like to fly all our sectors should be allowed to fly those sectors.
I think if we move to only real sectors we decrease the diversity of our VA and I think that's one of the reason this VA is as great as it is.;D
