Another incorrect Flight recorded

Postby placei » 31 Jul 2019 14:14

Unfortunately I too have registered an aircraft type error on flight EK440 DXB-ADL. It should be registered as a Emirates B787-1000 not a B777-200L which comes up with a freighter entry. I am sure the data base is incorrect as a 77L should be a B777-200L Long Range passenger aircraft not a freighter? Is the correct code 77F?---Ian Place

PS Is there anything you can do about these issues?

Hello Ian,

Aircraft database B77L has been fixed for 77F, now 77F=B77F.

Also fixed the PIREP entry for aircraft type to 787-10.

Okay, but I'm a bit confused, "Refile"? Do you mean you have saved flights that are already completed and will just change the aircraft type during PIREP? Or can you point out if schedule(s) are not accurate?
