How will it be if while choosing a plane of a company, its country’s name is also shown? This will help us to know which country a particular company belongs to.
The name of many plane companies reveals their country. But there are many whose names are different.
See this screenshot. I have selected United Airlines plane. But I don’t know which country it belongs to. Which country owns this company. Which country’s airline is this.
But, look at this screenshot. Above where A350 United Airlines is written, how about this if the name of its country is shown next to it. And not just this one. If this happens with all the other planes, then we will be able to know about the origin country of that company.
IFS has planes of almost all the airlines of the world, but there may not be many. All of them can be searched on Google. But we will search only once or twice, not repeatedly. Remembering all of them like this will become a bit difficult. I search on Google. I forget after searching. I think my memory is down
I’m not sure why this feature is needed. I’m not saying it’s bad or worthless, I personally just don’t see the point. For instance: United is based in the US, but the US doesn’t own it. Same with Delta, FedEx, or UPS. Most airlines are self-explanatory as to their country of origin, like China Airlines, Singapore Airlines, JAL, American, El Al, ITA, British Airways, Norse Airlines, AeroMexico, Air France, Qatar, Qantas, etc. If it’s not clear, then it isn’t a local airline and there’s probably a lot more you would want to know about it than it’s country of origin, and a Google search is by far the best way to find info on airlines. In terms of country codes, you can actually find all registration codes in the callsign selection.
If you really do want to make this a feature, you should make a Features request, following all of the guidelines. Perhaps it will get the backing and then be implemented in a future update!
I agree with you @Petre2026, but I just want to point out that, for some reason, China Airlines is based at Taiwan, specifically Taipei Taoyuan airport and not any Chinese airport strangely.
There’s no real use to remember them if you don’t already have them engrained in your mind. Apart from what airlines belonging to what country being common knowledge, you could either search them up or when you load into a flight, check out the reg of the aircraft or the tail number and 9 times out of 10 there will be a flag telling you where the aircraft is from. Anyways I don’t really think it should be a feature. In future possibly but at the moment with all that is going on developmental wise it think it would be a waste of time to change or develop that feature
