A
NEW CONCEPT FOR AIRLINE ENTHUSIASTS BRINGING AIR TRANSPORT AND
SIMULATION TOGETHER... |
| |
|
Welcome
to worldairline.org
which is a completely new concept for airline enthusiasts and MS Flight
Simulator fans, bringing all categories of these hobbies together under
"one roof". Our aim is to combine your searches for airline, airframe
and related information together with the possibility of exploring the
virtual skies from home - at your desk with Flight Simulator or perhaps
even in your home made cockpit. |

Worldairline.org
is a natural phase of development in
the Flight Simulator World that started for Nordic Air Group CEO Hans
von Knorring with a B/W Flight Simulator 2.0 while serving in the
Finnish Air Force in 1987. With the arrival of MSFS 4.0 it was even
possible to fly some routes at home, but there was no www or internet
foreseen in those days. Since the introduction of the internet a huge
array of Virtual Airlines have formed with this the internet also lead
to interest in simulated ATC which also soon became available.
|

|
Nordic Air was founded in
1997 in Stockholm and also introduced simulated ATC to Europe, then
known as SATCA and was the first overseas division of SATCO, predecessor
to VATSIM and IVAO as we know them today. Soon simulated ATC became it's
own organization and Nordic Air Group, renamed as such in 1998, became
the home & platform of a growing amount of Virtual Airlines. |
| |
|
The
Virtual Airline scene changed during 2003-2007 very much, a large number
of real commercial ventures operating under one brand increased but
having aircraft and operating licenses from another lease or wet-lease
only airline(s), this became known by IATA and so called Virtual
Airlines. Another major change was the more strict copyright rules,
these affected the traditional simulator Virtual Airlines but for some
reason not the general flight simulator sites or indeed the airline
enthusiast sites of airlines around of the world. |
| |
|
Thus
we are now in 2010, as sister site to Nordic Air Group, worldairline.org
are ready to take the next step ahead, our aim is to combine a
traditional airline enthusiast site and the flight simulator community
into a new way of looking at the our hobbies as one combined "Air
Transport Desktop Hobby". |
| |
|
Our
hope is that you will enjoy our site with all it has to offer and
hopefully if you wish become a member, still called "pilot". |
|
We welcome you to explore
our world! |
