I remember that we had brought up that we had no flights into Delaware so no one could complete the 50 State Visted thing. The correction was a fake flight but I thought that I should bring up that Delta actually had flights into ILG (Wilmington, DE) from June 29, 2006 through September 6, 2007. Just thought I'd bring it up.

If anyone's interested, they were Bombardier CRJ-200s operated by Atlantic Southeast Airlines

Hey Daniel. Terry addressed this issue some time this week or last week I think. You'll see a post in the cooler as a ticky in the 50 state post.

Edit: Well there WAS a sticky on it biggrin

but I guess they have pulled it. Either way, you will see ILG in the schedule, ATL-ILG-ATL

Also, for anyone interested in a realistic flight plan. ATL-ACY was the closest I could find with an SWL transition. ILG also has an SWL transition for STAR for north-bound a/c (i.e. ATL-ILG) so it's DOOLY4 GRD J209 ORF J121 SWL VCN8
