We are extremely proud to announce that AirlineSim made the first place in the "Best Online Innovation" category of this year's Webbies 09 Award. This is what the judges had to say:

The judges liked AirlineSim best. The site provides an airline and aviation enthusiast the opportunity to step inside the industry to understand its dynamics up close and simulates real-world fuel costs and its own stockmarket to inject genuine financial dynamics into the complex world of simulated airline operations. The judges said: "If it's not already used as a tool in business classes for those studying airline dynamics and operations, it should be."

Our congratulations go out to EmptyLegMarket and SeatExpert, the two other winners in our category, and of course all other contenders who took part in the contest. We are exceptionally glad to be a part of this great community of aviation enthusiasts!
