Suggestion: Golden Age Server

Does the AS back end support starting conditions in an earlier time? Eg: setting the date to 1965 and playing with old planes only? 

I think that would be quite an incredible experience. A temporary server could run in 6-month intervals, 1965, 1975, 1985, 1995, .. etc. 

Image ratings would be reset and prices/starting capital could be at their correct era situation. 

What do you guys think?

It has been proposed before, and supposedly in the long term plans.

Wouldn't that make Airline Sim, Airline Empires?

Nah, it could be a good idea(the 60'-80' era planes), one for temporary server, and later maybe one permanent, but include like 80% of the inflation into the a/c prices(so no cheap planes flooding the airports, like in otto :) ).

Big issue is how far do you go....

  • Old aircraft?
  • Old airports?
  • Old runways?
  • Old flow rates (slots per 5 min)?
  • Old traffic flow patterns?
  • Old traffic rights?

So whos volunteering to do the research for all that?

Just old aircraft and their rating to their current time. The rest doesn't really change the experience to a noteable amount.
