Thank you, both, most helpful and I will contact both BA and the Maidenhead Heritage folks.
A brief explanation. You may know that there are very many ‘virtual airlines’ whereby users of Flight Simulator fly scheduled flights for their airlines.
These ‘virtual pilots’ accrue hours, earn virtual pay and promotions and practice flight, procedural and navigation procedures online communicating with virtual air traffic services. Yes, I know what you’re thinking, but there are far worse diversions from the demands of the real world, and actually it’s quite engaging and sometimes even demanding and immersive.
I want to start a small online tribute to the ATA within the Flight Simulator community, where pilots can get ‘ferry chits’ to collect and fly period aircraft and deliver them. Starting as the ATA pilots did with simple pilot’s notes to fly Tiger Moth, Magister etc and gaining hours, move on to ratings to fly heavier types.
If I could get a look at some movement records that would give a sample of actual ferry tasks, although I am sure it would be quite a simple task to devise representative ferry chits.
Hope you don’t think this all too silly.
