I was trying out the Libyan Airlines A320 just now when I realized that by the registration, the flag pictured was the old flag from the Qaddafi period. While a solid green rectangle on the fuselage looks pretty cool, I think that it needs an update to the modern Libyan flag:
I honestly think this is so small that itâs not really needed.
The difference is?!?!
Post-Qaddafi
Pre-Qaddafi
Everyone is so crazy about realism soâŠ
Well, this barely makes a difference. Not trying to be rude, but I honestly think that you can barely tell the difference, if there even is one.
Youâre right, this barely makes a difference.
But Iâm sure that if for whatever reason, the United States would change their flag, we would have tons of feature requests here to adapt the change.
Personally, I think itâs a valid request. Iâm not going to vote, because I donât have any votes left, but I see the point of changing it.
Kinda a big deal for people who live in that country
Who the heck is Qaddafi? I think you mean Muammar Gaddafi, former dictator of Libya
I donât think âmaking a differenceâ has anything to do with this itâs a national flag and we have to respect the country I donât think this is even supposed to be requested ( The people who are supposed to keep the game up with the modern world should take care of this) it has nothing to do with realism as well. We have to respect oneâs country and their national flag just like we respect ours so I humbly respect the community members please donât say that it wonât make a difference. Thank you đđ
I rarely see anyone flying around the Libyan airline and thus itâs one the most underrated in IF. But for those flying this airliner, this would make a huge difference and a appreciated change for those people. And honestly i does make difference. Maybe because it isnât your country doesnât mean you can cast it aside and not care about it.
The flag is vastly different now from before and a update to it in IF wouldnât hurt rather heal this minor issue. This is a reasonable request my opinion.
And guys, letâs stay away from turning this topic into a political hotcake. Since this country is a sensitive topic to talk about so letâs keep it at the flag and nothing more!
Meeeep. The original Arabian version of the name is MuÊżammar al-QaddhÄfÄ«. âGadaffiâ, with a G, is the version adapted to our Roman/Latin alphabet.
But enough with our general knowledge lessons. :)
As I said, this change doesnât have a huge impact on the game, but it has one of the people coming from this country. If this would be Germany, the US, or Canada, a lot of people would request the change. But Libya is a country as well, so it has a significant importance to the users coming from there.
Iâm sure youâd have an issue if the American flag on all the airframes happened to be the one during the British occupation. Or even a certain flag from WW2.
Countries do change for good reasons, changing the flag isnât common, but sometimes itâs for the best. :)
Well said, since in Arabic itâs pronounced âKhadafiâ with a K H A type of sound. And not GA!
Anyways back to topic.
I think this thread could possibly need closing before it becomes a heated topic for politics and gets out of hand.
We can keep it on track. No need to mention any further about anything political or politically related!
Mate your source shouldnât be exactly the same pictureâŠ
Ok Iâm just asking where the difference is. Iâm not trying to be rude but I donât see one. Can someone please point it out?
I actually wouldnât because itâs a small change, but I understand what heâs getting at.
To me this is not big enough to give up a vote, but hereâs to hoping you all get your flag cleared upâŠ
