Getting AI aircraft back to "start"

[biggiraffe]

Hello,

Today I was looking at a couple of flightplans that went back and forth between two cities the whole time, two aircraft doing exactly opposite departures. There was no opportunity to switch them so they'd end the period (week) at the start city. The two cities were across the Atlantic, and I wanted to do my customary "after midnight" extra flight to sneak them home. There didn't seem to be a way to do this without them showing up or departing in the daytime at one of the airports.

But then I had an idea -- why not take off and do a forced arrival one hour later at the other airport, using the @ sign, even though the real flight would be 8 hours? Is there a technical reason why I can't do this?

Thanks,
Kurt

Hi,

Nope, I do this all the time.

Hope this helps,

I've done it, too. Probably preferable to "ferry flights" anyway.

Thanks, Gentlemen! I don't know why it took this long for it to dawn on me. All this time I've been trying so hard to at least get the flights on the same side of the ocean to make them connect.

Take care,
Kurt
