Phil,

I need an A380 for my next bid. What version are you flying and how do you like it?

If you search for your flight number in the AAVirtual timetable, you will see there are THREE entries:

BA16: YSSY-EGLL
BA16: YSSY-WSSS
BA16: WSSS-EGLL

This is also how it's shown in the OneWorld timetable we import to create our AAVirtual timetable.

This means that in the real world, this is a two leg flight. You should fly virtually it in two legs as well (so that you don't RUN OUT OF GAS!) You can then submit two separate FREPs with the same flight number, BA16. In order to help out your poor hub manger, you should add a note in each FREP that says something like this, "BA16, YSSY to EGLL, Leg 1 of 2, YSSY to WSSS".

Now you may realize, that with creating flight selection, you can squeeze a 20 leg bid into our 10 flight bid system. :D

Yes. Aerial refueling is in the Commander check ride. :lol:
