I cannot argue against that fact. Until I get better at alternate designs, these 2 planes will keep their engines as is. Also what engines would you recommend for the Twin-star and the MD-15?

In the late 1980s, the Jovia Division of Boeing had been working on a 747 with a single deck, much like the earlier 707. This 747 was made to be used originally on short ranged routes by the Jovian airlines that had come from sakura bay international airport but it found itself being used more frequently for long distance flights to Japan and Taiwan. Despite being popular in the islands for an early time, the 10 original planes were retired from 2006 to 2007. Each one was preserved and would have remained that way until 2020 when despite the pandemic, the cargo airlines and divisions required a new cargo hauler. Instead of waiting for Boeing to deliver, the Jovian Branch opened the files and converted the single decker airframe into a Cargo airframe. In time, the mainline of the sda or single decker aircraft would be cominng back into production for the sakura bay airlines and also for sugarplex executive airways. Jovian Airlines ordered 25 of the new sda while sakura annd Matsuri had a combined total of nearly 150. The sda will continue the work for a long time even though the regular 747 is having difficulty.

Now to cover something unique to the Jovian Islands, their aircraft registration. Unlike many nations who have a ITU prefix before the numbers such as Japan having the JP for their country's aircraft, Jovian Aircraft are registered by use of a XX-YY-ZZZZZZ. The First 2 X's correspond to the ITU letters for the Jovian Islands which in the AU are JI. The 2 Ys are the Airline's IATA Code which change based on the airline. The only exception is that of the the Flag Carrier which utilizes the ICAO code instead. With the final 6, they are spliit into 2 groups. The first 3 Zs form the Aircraft IATA Code so a 747-400 would be 744. The Last 3 Zs correspond to the aircraft's number in the fleet. For Example, the code JI-LL-74J020 would Be Jovian Islands, Masturi Airways, 747-400D, number 20, aka the last 747-400D that Matsuri took pocession of. Another exception to this lettering scheme would be that of Matcha Airlines which has aircraft from 2 different airlines. Even though Matsuri Operates them andn are painted in Matcha livery, the aircraft registration number remains that of the original owner. There are also aircraft that keep theiri old numbers due to popularity in the case of one famous 767-200 which has the Registration of JI-MM-CGAUN4. Normally the Jovian Aviation Authority would crack down hard on this but they didn't due to the popularity of C-GAUN when it was in service to Air Canada. You will see that much later.

Edit: Also before anyone asks, this registry applies to airlines only, private aircraft and general aviation aircraft follow the same standard as every other country

Your registration convention is unwieldy and impractical in a "real world".
Remember that the aircraft registration system is actually an outward reflection of the aircraft's radio station callsign (which is why the ITU codes are applicable). The format you've described for airliners is way outside anything vaguely practical as a radio callsign.
While any national registration authority can choose any formula for allocating a registration code, under the rules of our universe the international convention is XX-ZZZZ, with the XX being the 1 or 2 letter ITU code for the nation, and the Z's being a standard 4 letter or number individual registration code. Some nations are slight modifications of this, but they are typically historical carryovers from either the pre-1928 system (USA), or from a previous registration set with a country's independence status changing (Hong Kong and Macau).
So to adopt a coding system like you describe, not only do we have a point of divergence with our universe that allows ICAO to accept a country having extremely funky registrations (and then your Jovia would then not be the only registration to be counter to our current standard) and a second unrelated set of registration for non-airliners, but then your Jovian aeronautics administration have to regulate a "standard" private aircraft registration system, and a second completely different airliner registration system.
Many countries have expanded into 2 or 3 separate nationality codes (New Zealand has ZK-, ZL-, ZM -) as their fleets have expanded, so a two-tier JI-ABC for airliners and JJ-ABC for other aircraft would work, as would a JI1234 and JI-ABC if you want numbers for airliners and letters for the others.

I'm aware of the changes so I will be working on a bit of lore explaining the change of Coding. I also think that JJ would work well for Private and General Avation aircraft. I had the 2nd set of letters just due to the number of Airlines that the Jovian Islands has.

Well I think it is time to take care of the first Jovian Airline that is extremely close to completion. The Airline is Tea Travel, an airline combining British Airways, Virgin Atlantic+Virgin Australia+Virgin America and Singapore Airlines.
IATA Code: TE
ICAO Code: TEA
Callsign: Stash


First is the Tea Travel 737 fleet. Tea Travel utilizes 2x 737-700s, and 147x 737-800s with 54 of them being in different liveries which will be posted separately. There are also 96x 737 Max-8s, and 39x 737 Max-10s for a total of 248x 737s.


Next are the 747s that Tea Travel Operates. Almost alll 747s owned by Tea Travel were built at the Jovian Branch of Boeing. Out of a fleet of 132, 118 of the Jumbos are that of the 747-400 Family, there are also 7x 747-400BCFs and 7x 747-400Fs operated by Tea Travel's Cargo branch, Tea Transfer who handle heavy cargo deliveries and are often named though the naming scheme was discontinued in 2015.


To handle some routes with a more efficient plane at the time, Tea Travel has the 767 to play that role. Their 767 Fleet has 6x 767-200ERs and 58x 767-300ERs making the 767 one of the uncommon aircraft compared to others in Tea Travel's fleet


To expand their reach across the world and to travel to all areas of the former British Empire from the Jovian Islands, Tea Travel aquired one of the largest 777 fleets made up of multiple models. 22x 777-100s make up the long range flights to Europe and are often in competition with the 36x 777-200s and 73x 777-200ERs. There are 14x 777-300s and 47x 777-300ERs. There are currently 50 orders for the 777X-9. Also due to following British Airways in a way, Tea Travel is part of One World which is why several airframes have the One World Livery.


To Roundout the Boeing airframes are the Dreamliners of Tea Travel also called Tea Liners by upper management of Tea Travel. Tea Travel was a bit late to the 787 base due to reservations at the time of the Dreamliner followed by the 787 Groundings. When a new CEO took over, he ordered a new fleet of aircraft to fill the Tea Travel 2020 plan which was made in order to catch up with other airlines. By 2020, Tea Travel had already aquired all 32x 787-8s, around 30 of the planned 40x 787-9s and only 8 out of an order for 42x 787-10s.

Next up will be the other American airliners that Tea-Travel utilizes, those being the Dash-8, the EJet family, The L-2022 Twinstar, the MD-14 and MD-15

Tea Travel has more than just Boeing aircraft in its fleet. Due to the Jovian Islands being near the Americas, Tea Travel did reach its hand out to companies like Bombardier and Embraer for smaller aircraft to get into airports their bigger planes couldn't get into.


First up is the EJet Family from Embraer. These planes are often utilized by Tea Travel's subsidiary known as Tea Transit. Tea Transit uses all 4 main models of the EJet family with 2x E170s, 110x E175s, 15x E190s, and 50x E195s to fill the fleet. There are 11 aircraft in an offbrand white color that also carry unique liveries, they are of the E190 series. All Tea Transit aircraft have green winglets rather than black with the logo due to the recent commitment to research into a Bio-Kerosene fuel for their planes.


The only Turbo-prop aircraft inn their fleet, Tea Transit operates 84 Dash-8 aircraft which are often called the Q400 by staff though both names are used. The aircraft are planned to have an update to their paint scheme mostly with a lime stripe and lime wing tips but it awaits to be seen.


Now back to the main airline. Tea Travel was the first airline to order the Lockheed L-2022 Twinstar due to the airline seeing interest in something that was getting close to Retro at that point in time. Tea Travel L2022s operate primarly to North American destinations though there are a few that take the Trans-Atlantic crossing to Europe or a Trans-Pacific Crossing to Singapore or Hong Kong. Despite the pictured aircraft carrying 2 weaker engines, the actual aircraft utilize modern day GE engines.


Besides the Twinstar order, Tea Travel contacted McDonnell Douglas to see if they had something to rival the L2022. The company replied that it did and gave Tea Travel the chance to utilize the MD-14, a Twin engine DC-10 and the MD-15, a Twin MD-11 model. However MD fell short due to a range issue and a troublesome reputuation due to an on going Bribery scandel much like what occured to Lockheed in the 1970s, leading Tea Travel to only purchase 32 MD-14s and 3 MD-15s. There was an accidential numbering error made by MD but the company didn't care at the time.

And that completes all of the Aircraft from North and south america. Next group will be all of the Airbus airliners

Tea travel wouldn't be complete without their airbus fleet. Their A320 Family alone has over twice as many aircraft compared to the 737s in their fleet but they have fewer unique colors. To make them standout and for the sake of plane spotters, any Airbus plane tea travel has is painted with a blue belly compared to the green belly of the majority of their aircraft.


Tea Travel's A320 fleet is a very large one with 529 aircraft of the family being utilized heavily for short to medium range flights including many to destinations in the Western United states or from Hubs in other countries that were once part of the British Empire. There are currently only 2x A318s, 56x A319s, 217x A320s, 86x A321s, 123x A320 Neos and 45 A321Neos.


For long range travel, Tea travel has aquired a fleet of 72 A330-300s from different airlines who sought to retire their A330-300s early. However, the fleet wasn't enough and to help the 787 fleet, the airline opted to buy 14 of the A330-900Neo family. The first aircraft of the A330-900 entered service in May 2021 despite another lockdown due to a recent surge of the disease everyone knows about. Overall the new A330-900 will offer passengers a new feeling of comfort along with a much more eco friendly flight with bio-degradable silverware and cups, non-gmo foods and more. It also lacks the Tea Travel logo on the winglets


To partner with the A330-900, the A350-900 and A350-1000 were ordered to fulfill long range flights and to rival the 777s and 767s along with any remaing A340s in service. Much like A330-900, the A350s lack the airline logo on the winglets. There are currently 5 A350-900s in service with 32 of the A350-1000s along withh 62 A350-900s and 7 of the A350-900 Freighters once the Freighter model comes into service


Finally comes the A380, Tea Travel's King of the skies with the 747 being their queen. 29 A380-800s make up the Tea Travel fleet and in recent day, the airline is preparing to name their A380s after 29 large cities that Tea Travel flies too. The 1st is the City of Jovia followed by the City of London, City of singapore, city of sydney, city of perth, ect ect.

That covers all of Tea Travel's Airbus planes as well as their fleet. I am currently working on another airline at the moment but it will be a long time before it is ready
