Home for the Holidays , the only time i fly to my home airport

KLAX - EGCC
Lufthansa Cargo GEC8231

I have issued some awards (will finish after the 1st of January for those who have not completed yet).

The system rejected the following two flights due to invalid length:

Found flight but not long enough: AS 21 Ken Bolish Fltid=332893 Dep=KALB Arr=KEWR Airline=ASG Type=GA Filed=1482611620 Hired: 1034553600 Distance=124 Home Airport: KEWR

Found flight but not long enough: AS 541 Brian Neuman Fltid=331391 Dep=KTUS Arr=KAVQ Airline=ASG Type=GA Filed=1479776110 Hired: 1356912000 Distance=23 Home Airport: KAVQ

So I need to do it all over again if I want to get the award? Whats the minimum distance for the GA flight? I am confused as I didnt see that in the rules.

Brian I sent you a PM. There are a couple things we can do to fix this.

And I replied. No need to do anything, I am gonna go ahead and fly it again to make sure I meet the guidelines.

Alrighty then: Second attempt to complete the Home for the Holidays:

Crew Pass: KSEA-CYYC (CLX773)
Scheduled Flight: CYYC-KPSP (WJA1468)
General Aviation: KPSP-KAVQ (In Beechcraft Royal Duke)

My bad for not comprehending the exact instructions on my first attempt.

Sounds good Brian, and thanks for pointing out that the wording was a bit off, I adjusted it for the bonus flight now too.

Tom, I didn't know that the last flight had to be at least 150 miles long. Could I redo the the flights even though I am past the deadline?
