I've noticed that all of the DHC-8 flights that belong to Alaska Airlines (Like KSEA-KGEG) use the DHC-8-100, an aircraft that no longer exists in the Horizon Air/Alaska Air fleet. Even sites like Flightaware list the equipment as DH8D, or the Q400. Could someone please correct the equipment type of all of the -100 flights into Q400s?

We can't edit the flights in the schedule. They're automatic and updated daily. You're welcome to fly the Q400 on those routes though that it can make. If I did modify the equipment type, it would reset tomorrow since the schedule updates at 2AM.

Understood. I hate breaking my rule for not flying the right equipment, but I might just have to since it isn't the proper equipment.
