We have added a new accomplishment for pilots to pursue: The Yellow Bird Club. Visit all 46 airports that Northeast Airlines served. Northeast Airlines was acquired by Delta in 1972 which greatly expanded Delta's network into New England.

Here is the master list: ACK, AUG, BDL, BGR, BHB, BML, BOS, BTV, BWI, CLE, CON, DTW, EEN, EFK, EWB, EWR, FIT, GON, HUL, HVN, HYA, JAX, JFK, LCI, LEB, LEW, LGA, LWM, MHT, MIA, MLT, MVY, ORD, ORH, PHL, PQI, PSF, PWM, RKD, YJT, YLP, YQM, YQX, YUL, YYR, YZV

New historical flights added all in the DC-3 from the 40's and 50's:

NEH 2505 PQI HUL BGR PWM BOS
NEH 2506 MPV EFK
NEH 2507 JFK BDL PSF EEN
NEH 2508 LGA ORH FIT LWM
NEH 2509 JFK GON
NEH 2510 GON JFK
NEH 2511 BGR MLT HUL

New destination airports include:

Houlton ME
Newport VT
Pittsfield MA
Fitchburg MA
Lawrence MA
Groton-New London CT (was already available under PAH schedule)
Millinocket ME

We hope you enjoy these new destinations and pursuing this accomplishment. Hard core realists will fly these in the DC-3 or other historical propliner biggrin

As always, be sure to type in .update in ACARS chat to get the latest schedule and equipment. Enjoy these as snowy winter approaches!

Watch those runway lengths!

NICE!!! Thanks, Andrew! My very first airplane ride was with my dad on a NEA DC-6B, ORH-LGA. Awesome!
