Hello DVA pilots!

I'm rated in the 767 program (First Officer) and I was wondering if I could take the 767 on a flight that is over 6,000nm. I know the range isn't that much, but could I just refuel the airplane and continue to my destination? If I could, would the flight report get approved? If I cannot do this, it is 100% ok. I was just wondering if I could be able to do a longer flight than the 767 on a tank of gass/range. (Refuel)

Thank you for your help!

The one thing you'll always hear when being asked about Aircraft Substitutions is: "As long as the aircraft can safely fly the trip."

I'm fairly confident that the answer here will be no. RW operations would exclude in-flight refuelling, as should you.

Sry.

Thanks John for clearing that for me. That makes better sence now.
