From your flight report it looks like you booked a flight to Bristol (EGGD) but flew to Jersey Instead. I don't know if its possible to undo the flight, but dont worry about it too much. Best way to get your rating back up (which is only down to 95) is just fly more flights.

At least there is already a dove route back to Bournemouth.

No, I think you have them switched.

From our flightplan on flynet:
CBF5521 EGHH EGJJ 1200 1255 4x DOVE 69v$
CBF5524 EGHH EGGD 1500 1535 4x DOVE 63v$

And your flight:

I don't know if they were changed recently but thats what it looks like right now.

Why does it say 49NM

Bournemouth to Jersey would be about 90+

Hitch, I am not trying to irritate you. But the intended destination of CBF5524 is Bristol not Jersey. Your flight log does show:

"CBF5524 Bournemouth Jersey Sep 14, 19:55 11 49nm"

But its just showing what was done not what was planned.
You will also notice your first flight has the same flight number but went to Bristol.

To view the flights from Bournemouth you can refer to

If its any concelation I did the same thing on my second trident flight. Left Heathrow and headed home to Belfast, Landed at Aldergrove to get hit with the wrong airport....

I had actually booked the flight to my othe home (currently edinburgh)

oops! Never mind, reputation was back up to 99.x fairly quickly. It can get very confusing when there is a huge list of flights.

I now double check the flight on the client before I take off buy doing a "show booked flight" :smile:

That's the safest thing to do Ben. I've never gone to the wrong place but always check the 'booked flight' page just in case. Should push come to shove, one can always adjust ones plans and fly to what it says on that page. It may not be where you intended to go but at least it get's you out of the poo and there's no penalty for cancelling the flight :wink:

Don't worry about it Hinch. There was only one bloke who walked this Earth proclaimed to be perfect and look how he ended up.. being crucified :wink:

Hey Hinch


DONT feel like the lone stranger - one of our umm more senior pilots over here at Pineapple Airways was ferrying an aircraft from Manchester to Chicago enroute to Honolulu - and flew the whole first leg in real time (jeez his butt must have been sore) only to land at Chicago MIDWAY not Chicago O'Hare -- your peers here are being a lot kinder - :wink:
