Currently we don't support for that, but I am currently involved in an offlist 
discussion on a possible traffic manger version two, which would be a big 
step toward such flexibility. Currently, a each aircraft has to be assigned a 
fixed series of flights, whereas the new version flight schedules and 
aircraft information would be decoupled. This change would probable involve a 
new input file format, which would be a lot closer to that of actual airline 
time tables, and would be a lot easier to build than the current ones. 

We may be looking at at least another year before we have something working, 
so stay tuned. :-)

Sounds good. :-)

I have just recently received a number of dedicated AI aircraft from Innis 
Cunningham, which I haven't committed to CVS yet. These include a Bombardier 
Challenger, a Cessna Citation, a Fairchild Dornier,  a Dehavilland Dash-7, an 
Embaer legacy, an MD80, and an MD90. 


I'm currently trying to incorporate these aircraft into my test database, and 
once I have a sufficient number of repaints will commit them to cvs. I'm 
using some of the businessjets as standins for their regional jet 
counterparts. As such, I'm currently using the Dash-7 as a stand-in for the 
Dash-8. Innis indicated working on more aircraft for AI, so hopefully that 
includes a Dash-8 as well. 

Cheers,
Durk
