My personal goal for a while, since coming back, is to go around the US first, and pick off every city on each route map, state by state. I'm in CA now, and Victorville shows up on the DVH route map. I gather it's been there for final flights of a/c to the desert. How would I go about requesting a flight, or finding a flight there? I tired searching for a flight there, and nothing is showing up.

I see what you mean. We do have some flights in the schedule that only operated on certain days of the week, and I suspect that is the issue here. Therefore, it will only show in the schedule on the correct day of the week.

DVH 9930 or DVH9935. They're one way from Atlanta so you should only fly there if you intend to retire!

Thanks for that! If I can find an A300 model that doesn't want to be wallow-y, I'll take one of those or a 727 on a one way desert trip.

Nooooooooo! We can't have 727's gong to the boneyard here. It happens too much in real life. I should change the historical schedule to be 727 flights only FROM KVCV to KATL!

Of course, if we want to be complete about this, we should schedule flights to AND FROM Marana (KMZJ) and to Blythevillle (KBLH). Marana is Delta's current bone yard inherited from NWA and we have placed airplanes in temporary storage there. Blythevillle is the current chop shop for the retried 757s so, unfortunately, those would be one-way flights.

I wish someone could add MMQT Queretaro Int'l Airport. This airport has a maintenance facility for Delta's Maddogs. Several flights go in and out of there for maintenance during the week. Would be cool to simulate that on here.
