As a new pilot in the AFVA there is a question:
In the descriptions of the tours are equipment types mentioned. But is the selection of the a/c on the own discretion?
I don't own all these types

Thank You

Hello Dirk!

It depends on the tour. Some tours will allow you to select whatever aircraft you wish provided it is appropriate for that leg (like any other normal flight). However, some require specific aircraft (it will specify in the info at the top of the page). For example, the Concorde tours REQUIRE use of the Concorde (this is a relatively bad example because we have to manually enforce this, but if a tour requires aircraft type to match then it will state that in the briefing).

I hope this helps!

Daniel
