I'm still a little fuzzy about codeshare flights. When flying one on-line, a NW flight for example, do I still use my DAL or DAV callsign with their flight number after it, or should I be NWxxxx? If so, should we have their aircraft in our fleet as well? Thanks. I just want to do this right on-line.

Hey Greg,
The best thing to do when flying online is to just use your DVA ID with the DAL callsign no matter what flight you are flying. So my callsign for every online flight that I do is DAL822. Where the NW code comes in is when you file the PIREP. It can be filied a number of ways using the NW code either by selecting NW, and then indicating it was a codeshare flight, or you can just file as a Delta flight indicating it was a codeshare flight. You can use the actual flight number or the delta codeshare flight number in the PIREP.
