Hello simmers,
A big doubt has hammered in my head.
I am setting up flight plans for 90's decade.
There are 2 airlines which ceased operations in 1991.
Pan Am and Interflug.
Should I consider the airlines in or out ?
I mean, to keep with the fp, once that both airlines ceased in early decade.
What about yours Flight Plans ?

Interflug - I did do because they did fly with West German reg's and flags on their Russian aircraft into about 1991-1992.
They also got an Airbus A310 and a few loaner Dash-8's around then, as well.
Pan Am - I have not done because their aircraft went to so many other carriers or their FP's went to many other airlines in the later 1990's.
For example: FedEx got many of the A310's - the 727's, 737's, 747's, and the A300's went to a little bit of everyone - same with Eastern.
The routes too - TowerAir seemed to take over some of "their" routes out of KJFK... or rather, just entered in to where Pan Am used to go.
United got lots of Pan Am planes and routes. My Pan-Am is the small re-start out of Florida in the late 1990's.
Basically, if you wish to have Pan-Am, you have to have an earlier United, TWA, TowerAir, FedEx, American, and so on so you do not have an over-bearing amount of traffic due to repeated airframes, per se. Even though they have different reg's, you wouldn't want a bunch of Pan-Am A310's and FedEx A310's all on top of each other.

Interflug had one Dash 8 (from Tyrolean), three A310s and a few Tu-134s in 1991. Went under in 1991 because two national airlines apparently weren't in the spirit of reunification.

This is the airline that Carnival ate up not too long after these photos were taken.
I think there are some FP's still around for these guys.

OK.
Understood guys.
Thanks for reply.
Cgold, could you share your small fp for Pan Am in the late 90's?
About Interflug, I'll force it's retirement.

That's who I forgot about - Delta did get some of their aircraft, too. Thank you for the Interflug info, too - It's quite unreal to see Russian aircraft in West German Reg's out of a big European city such as Berlin. By the way, welcome to RetroAI. |

It's quite unreal to see Russian aircraft in West German Reg's out of a big European city such as Berlin. The reunified armed forces used a bit of east german equipment for a short time. Mi-24s, Su-22s, L-410s, etc...although the MiG-29s were the longest-serving an most famous. Finland operated a true mix of eastern and western equipment for the entire cold war though. |
