Its a super secret accomplishment. biggrin

Actually, this accomplishment is more of a qualifying flag for a new course we're going to be implementing soon in the flight academy.

In order to gain 200 flights in the 737 program that count towards promotion, a pilot needs to be in that program when they log a flight in any 737 aircraft that meets the minimum distance requirement and has no time acceleration enabled.

aha, I see...

well, I have some suggestions in the matter of accomplisments:

1. Airline companies accomplisment(s). Since there are many airline companies in the fliying schedule it should be one (or many accomplisments)
2. some accomplisments are not realistic. For example accomplishments over 1000 flights such as Everett 1500 Club, Stage 1 Jet 1500 Club, Stage 1 Prop 1500 Club etc., it couldn't be achievable for even the 10% of active DVA's pilots.

In any case the above mentioned are my personal opinion and I would be glad to help you expressing my opinion or with any other way.

Thank you for listening (reading actually) smile

Thanks for your comments Aris. I'm limited by the way the web site is programmed as to setting up accomplishments so I can only work with what I've been given. We've had pilots achieve some lofty goal accomplishments so I'm not sure about how they're not achievable. All can be achieved with time, flights and patience. Some take years. Some take only a few months. We have a lot to offer.

Wait wait wait wait a min.. does that mean if I want to get the achievement, I have to sweet talk into the 737 staff position, get this achievement and then ease myself back into the 757? confused

Pilots must be in a program for flights to count towards promotion in their log book. I'm considering changing the name a bit and creating this for other programs.

Good idea, Andrew. It would be fun getting with the old iron (i.e. the DC-8 series and my historic Pan Am B707 that my wife's father flew RW).
