Is CNB8539 based on a real schedule?

Or is someone having a laugh?

Decided to fly a 757 flight that I had not previously flown CNB8539 to LIPV Venice San Nicolo, while it is a lovely airport for a little GA, for a B757 in the words of Sean Connery...Shurely shome mishtake!!!

I guess it's supposed to be Tessera Marco Polo, Lipz I can't change it because you've booked it.
Maybe full reverse thrust @ 200ft may do it :lol:

That was my thought aswell Dale, yeah, booked it and flew it. Did not realise until I was on 'final' and saw the Airfield.

Full Autobrake and reversers got me stopped just before the beach, getting out was easier as lets face it it's a 757 so I just went for it!!

Flying the return now so it can be changed in an hour or 2.

Cheers mate and thanks
