I most certainly can. Let me take a look and I'll shift one of the closest ones for you ;)

EDIT: Done mate.. G-AMRA is on it's way from Liverpool for you. It'll arrive in the not too distant ;) There WAS a reason why no DC3's were based at MAN but it's gone in the mists of time. Feel free to leave it there when you've finished if you so wish :thumbsup:

Hello,

Could my Rating for the 748 be reactivated? It's just the first 2 Training flights to re-qual isn't it?

Thanks

Paul

Faliraki baby? I think I have puzzled this out MrB, and I hope I'm not becoming a pest.
Bear with me, FSA use the ICAO code A30B for any flavour of Airbus 300-200 (b2 b4 c4 f4). Our database however calls the b2 of which we have 3, A300. Only the freighter f4, of which we have 2, is called A30B. Unfortunately, the training schedule uses an A300 code, which doesn't exist according to FSA. Hence why the two A300b2-200's we have sitting at Gatwick (and the other one at East Midlands), don't show up to train on? Is why all the hen party routes for the b2 are greyed out I suppose also. Have I got this right and is there any way round it please?
By the time I get back to Heathrow from the sad faded remains of empire, I will be a bit merlin engined out. I really quite fancy cheering myself up with some happy pissed people.
apologies in advance, I did have a scout around of our forums but can't see any obvious explanations

Let me check Jim. The naming conventions can be a little confusing at times so I'll have to go an re-acquaint myself. I've done some of the love-bug/bucket and spade runs in the A300 but it was a long time ago. I'll consult my logbook and get back ;)
