After being AWOL for a spell, (and a short-timer as well) I recently got back on the ball. I'm in the 737 Program, but tried the ATR-72 on a short hop from ATL to MGM and found these short flights to be very enjoyable due to the short "waiting time" between takeoffs and landings, (auto-pilots are great, but boring). Anyway, do flights in other planes, (and Delta Connection) count in the 737 program? Or are they just for fun?
I did file a pirep, just in case they did count.

Ken, your Pilot Profile indicates you are also ATR qualified, so yes, you can fly the ATR and be credited for those PIREPs submitted.

As and additional note: While the ATR (Stage One Program) PIREPs can be logged, those flights will not serve (or be applied) towards qualifying you for Stage Two or higher type ratings. In another words, flights in the ATR would not apply towards you flying ten legs in another stage program for qualification criteria.

Thanks for the info, Randy. I thought they would count for total flights. Your second response answered my question.

Hey Randy, do you know if we are going to get a 1900 on the fleet library.

Delta Connection doesn't own any B1900s so we won't have them in our fleet library.
