Aircraft and routes

Post by RAF_Quantum »

Hi Guys,

I suggest initially that we have UK hubs with UK and European destinations. It would be nice to operate the correct aircraft on the correct routes as operated by past Airlines. So, if some of you want to get your thinking heads on and come up with a route network for specific aircraft types it will be most helpful. I guess I'm looking for some 'Scheduling Managers' LOL.

In order that you don't duplicate each others work, please shout here e.g. "I'll look at the HS 748 routes of Channel Airways and British Airways" etc etc etc.

I just need routes e.g

EGLL - EGPD
EGPD -EGLL
EGLL - LOWW
LOWW - EGLL

Even if a route is already covered by someone else with a different aircraft, I need to know as when we plan our timetable of routes we state the aircraft types. So we could and probably will have some routes duplicated but with different aircraft types.

Please use the 4 letter ICAO codes (eg. EGSS, EGNX) as the three letter codes (eg. STN/ZSD, CDD/EMA) can change over the years. Besides that, all routes listed at FlyNET use the 4 letter ICAO.

1-11s depends on what you wish

It would be simple to move the old dan air ltn schedule to STN

viz

STN-PMI-STN
STN-IBZ-STN
STN-GRO-STN
STN-BCN-STN
STN-AGP-STN
STN-MAH-STN
STN-VCE-STN
STN-RMI-STN
STN-GOA-STN
STN-ALC-STN

With these rotations you can also intermix "w" pattern STN-PMI-MAN-PMI-STN etc etc using BHX/MAN/MME

I can provide schedules if these are acceptable

My interests would be in flying cargo, Vanguard and Argosy. I often fly from Stanstead to Rome and back. Not sure if these are 'real' flights or not but I enjoy them all the same. I also fly the same route in BOAC Stratocruisers.
