Hi All
   I have been able to assign routes to a leased plane before it arrives. Now I have a new plane on order and I do not seem to be able to assign a route to it in advance of its delivery. This is rather important as it will arrive at 4am my time in the real world! I want it flying and not sitting there costing me money!

Help!

You can only preschedule out up to.... 30 days maybe?  I can't remember off the top of my head exactly.  It's either 2 weeks or 4.

And no new plane you can order gets delivered that fast.  I think about the earliest anymore is about 6-8 weeks and some can take years.  Are you sure your new plane is being delivered that soon?

He never said that he had just ordered the plane.
Chances are, he thought that he could preschedule earlier, and got worried when he realized that he can't.
On route planning, it says routes to be flown within the next 3 weeks, so I'd assume you can preschedule 3+ weeks early

Hi
   thanks...yes, I assumed I could pre-schedule when I bought the plane. It is under 30 days but more than 3 weeks.

   I will monitor and report to the thread when/if it works out.

    thanks

Plane was available for scheduling about 20 days out....3 weeks according to some definition I am sure.

thanks!
