Is there a way to file reports with MD87's and smaller variants ? ACARS doesn't show it under the equipment type drop down. I am a little curious as to why it wouldn't. Thanks in advance!

Select the MD-88 in ACARS.

Hey Larry thanks for the answer. I actually thought about that but my concern is the report might be rejected given the fact that it wasn't flown using an md-88 or md-90 for that matter. Hope you get what I am meaning.

Hello.
I've been searching for the answer to this myself and wanted to bump this thread in the hopes that someone can provide the answer.

I just picked up the CLS MD-87 through JustFlight on sale. Can I use this aircraft with Delta Virtual Airlines? I understand that I can select MD-88 in ACARS, but my question is the same as the OP's, in that will my flight be valid with DVA in the MD-87 instead of the MD-88.

Thanks for your help.
