If we change the order, this does not guarantee, nor make more probable that India gets selected.

That is not why I suggest we change. Its because of the time we'll get for scenery development.

and thus, why I proposed holding India for 2018, if we think we could make it better then

(as in I could withdraw india for 2017 and buy us some time that way)

Go for it

But on the other hand, if you think we have the manpower to develop that much I wouldn't say no.
I just don't think I can do much by may

that's a fair point too.
We admit there are no man-power.

For that very good reason, I am not withdrawing my candidate India.

I have been talking to Ratan Lewis, a scenery developer of FSX/P3d who have made a lot of airports of India, about bringing his work to Flightgear and he has given permission. So, a lot of 3d modelling effort can be spared.

Hyderabad (VOHS) done by him.

Chennai (VOMM) done by him.

Goa (VAGO) done by him.

Sounds good.

The time 16-24UTC is widely popular among both of these groups and Saturday is particular convenient. This does not change at all with Festival Location. (that is, the popular time does not depend on location, nor on time-of-day at this time on the location). I pressume many people just moves the internal clock to a nice "simulated" time, they like -- being Dusk/Noon or something different. This we saw on Japan, per example.

+1 (also, do not forget SHM and KIWI34).

IAHM-COL wrote:2. The are 2 reasons argued before to set the order Fall/Europe - Spring/Non-Europe.
a) Alternation. This way we will always alternate. Europe->Non->Europe->Non->Europe->Non->etc
If we swap the order we will have an European festival just following UK+Ireland

b) FSWeekend is host in the Neetherlands, and some pilots (like I do) enjoy flying into the Netherlands during FSWeekend. A festival Within Europe in Fall, as coinciding with FSWeekend is a nice opportunity to do this flight. But I am not doing India->EHAM in a festival and ATC at the same time.

+1.

Well, I'm a regular pilot at the festivals, but I don't think, I ever filed a report. Not very professional, but then, I am not that much of a stickler for bureaucratic authenticity ..., so bear with me.
