Hi!

I have a question...
It's possible to fly on a 767-300 on a 767-400 route?

Example:
DVA629 - KSFO - PHNL
This is a 764 route but I want to fly this route on a 763, it's possible??

Thanks

Yes, you can fly all the routes with all the aircrafts that reach safely the destination.

In addition to what Marius has said, you must have the rating to fly the aircraft chosen. See your Pilot Center for the list of aircraft you are rated to fly...

Of course... You always have to consider these two rules when choosing an aircraft for a flight...

Is this true for any route, that any a/c is ok as long as it's safe to fly? I mean, can I fly a route that I like which is listed for aircraft that I do not fly? Example: Say I like a route that is listed for a 727 but I only hold a MD-88 Capt w/757 additional. Can I fly the route with one of the aircraft that I hold a rating for?

Yes, you can fly any flight in the database with any aircraft you hold the ratings for, so long as that particular aircraft can safely make the flight (ie: No CRJ flights across the pond)
