3E5EAE with Flight ID DKKBA
D-KBBA is/was a Schleicher ASH 25E c/n25077 but I am not sure if that is current as I found it on an old website that did not look to up to date.

Hello

Thanks for that Chris. One of the other updaters has done this when I was out.

I note that for some SAS aircraft the company populates as Scandinavian Airlines - SAS and for others Scandinavian Airlines System.
Which one are you guys standardising on?

Hi,

Just like to clarify a point. How should a Beechjet 400A and Hawker 400XP be correctly populating the AN field.  Should it be "Beech Beechjet 400A" and "Hawker 400XP" respectively?

That is very complex and I don't think we yet have a standardised format due to the uncertainty.  Based on the Wikipedia entry and other data gives the following:

Mitsubishi MU-300-10 Diamond II later renamed Beechcraft Model 400 Beechjet
Improved version of Diamond I; 11 built all by Mitsubishi, all subsequently redesignated as Beechjet 400s. - C/Ns were A1001SA through A1011SA, C/N renumbered to RJ-1 to RJ-11

Beechcraft Model 400 Beechjet
Version of Diamond II built after Beechcraft bought the production rights to the MU-300 from Mitsubishi, 54 built in addition to 11 Diamond IIs. C/Ns RJ-12 to RJ-65

Model 400A  
Upgraded model, initially produced as the Beechcraft Beechjet 400A, then Raytheon Beechjet 400A, then Raytheon Hawker 400XP, then Hawker Beechcraft Hawker 400XP.  


Anyones thoughts would be appreciated, my personal preferrence would be just Beechcraft 400 Beechjet (for RJ-), Beechjet 400A and Hawker 400XP (for RK-) for simplicity.

Hi Updaters

This post seems to have been lost amongst other issues. Please comment.

The same applies for Iberia (Some just Iberia and some Iberia Airlines)
