All flight schedules

Scheduled assignments must be completed before a charter or cargo flight will be approved. To create your own charter, email your hub manager with a brief flight plan (e.g. where you want to fly, in what aircraft, and the routing) and he'll approve it provided you are qualified for the aircraft you choose.
