Well.. not a great deal really. As a fleet manager, you're able to put aircraft into maint which will give you a little more access at FSA. I see Joe is also a fleet manager though I'm not sure what fleets he looks after. If you want to look after the Brit pistons, all that will be involved is that you keep an eye on when they're getting close to the magic 96% then throw them into maint using the spanner icon. I've just had a look through all but the Brit Jets and have thrown a couple of airframes into maint so you shouldn't have a great deal to do for a while. Letting them get no lower than 96% means they get an 'A' check and are only out of service for 24hrs ;)

Since I actually am a fleet manager, I just sent all AC below 97 into the shop.
Joe Cusick,

Hi Dave :hello: I would be happy to help in some small part if it keeps our VA alive. It looks like Joe is on his own as the only manager that still an active pilot. There are probably a few of us that would be happy to put something back in to the hundreds of hours we have had out But would not like to tread on anyone's toes :poke:

Rgr that matey :thumbsup:

We used to have it setup according to fleet but that has kind'a gone by the by. It would be easier for a fleet manager to look after the type of aircraft he flew most. With that in mind.. is there any particular type you'd fancy looking after?

Hiya mate I seem to spend most of my time flying the 1-11, (Really need to get to 500 flights in her) interspersed with the 146 so I guess it would be the British jets

Happy to be given some types to look after, I fly a wide variety of types from the DC3 right up to ole pointy nose herself so would be prepared to look after any types.

The variety I have most ratings on would be the turbo props I guess.
