Hi Colin :hello:

Consider it done.. you naughty boy you. Fancy dodging your own hammer! :lol:

Now.. let me think. I don't currently have the QW model installed (the JF/CLS model being much more frame friendly) so I can't remember what models you get. There are flights for series 1, 2 and 3 146's so there's certainly no shortage of places to go so make sure you note which type is with which flight. Why are you particularly concerned about the 463?

Thanks Dave :rock:

It's not happy!

Only asked about the 463 as it seemed to be the only one listed on the training flights.

AH.. I see :) No, it's not the only one we operate so don't worry ;) . All training flights are on the '3' but once you have these out of the way.. you don't have to fly one ever again ;)

Hi Colin :hello:
Quality wings 146 is probably the best payware model I have. Maybe not saying much as I only own a handful or two :lol: Too tight an all that
Find that the va isn't bothered which variant is flown. Certainly between the 200 and 300 series. I tend to use the 300 for all, as the panels for that model have been altered to suit my setup, well as far as my knowledge allows, and you only need to remember where everything is in one cockpit

Can the RJ be used as an alternative to the 146?

I can use the FMC on the RJ series but not on the 146, it is just too confusing for my small brain.

I couldn't say for sure Ady but I don't see any reason why not. In fact.. when the QW 146/RJ's came out, they didn't include the 146.. only the RJ. I flew a shed load of flights using the RJ so yes.. you can use it instead of the 146 ;)
