Additional Flights

(1/5) > >>

EHM-1945 Christophe:
Hello pilots and managers,

I'm just wondering if it may be possible to add some specific flights on top of the rich flight schedule we already have in Euroharmony.

The reason of that ? Being able to flight some short legs <2hours with big birds such as B777, B747, A340, ...

How ? : By providing some Maintenance flights. I remember in an other VA, (BAVirtual), there was a maintenance flight schedule available that was offering some flights from main HUBs (mainly UK based in that case ;) ) to a specific maintenance site which was EGFF (Cardiff). What about initiating the same kind of flights to allow flighting the big ones when pilots do not have enough time to do long haul.

Just let me know your feedback on this one

Have good flights
Cheers

Christophe,

There is some merit to what you are requesting, I know people have expensive addons like the PSS772 and PMDG744 but don't necessarilly like to spend 7 hours crossing a boring ocean. If we were to introduce a maintenance schedule, it would be a limited one and certainly would not be a complex network of flights.

I will put it on the agenda for the next meeting but input from pilots would be welcomed to see if the idea would generate enough interest to make the work involved worthwhile.

Cheers,

Hi

I'm with Christophe.

I own the PMDG744 and i'm doing flights outside the EuroHarmony VA, because at the moment, i don't have time to spend 7 or 10 hours to do long flights.

Cheers,

Good idea! I think this would be worthwhile and allow us to get more use out of some of our most expensive aircraft ;)

I'm one of the PSS 777 owners Phil alludes to above and I've hardly used it, precisely because I normally fly for 1 to 3 hours at a time and there aren't any suitably short routes at the moment for class 7 planes. It's the very reason that I haven't (yet) given in to my desire to buy the PMDG Queen of the Skies... :)

EHM-0471 Peter:
Excellent idea Cristophe, and at our first meeting of MA, I am going to support it.
