	Is it true that I can substitute any aircraft for another as long as it has the range to fly the flight?

	What if I am rated on an aircraft that can make a trip but I am not rated on the aircraft that is supposed to be on the route?

	You should check out the Document Library in the Pilot Center, and check out the Water Cooler, because this subject comes up about 2+ times a month. Yes you can, if the a/c that you will be using can make the distance, just as long as your rated for it.
