September 24, 200916 yr Why don't most freight airlines publish timetables? Does anyone know where I can get timetables for airlines like UPS and FedEx and any other freight airline?thanksBecause most ordinary folk aren't interested and even business users don't need to know. If they have something to ship their main concern is likely to be "when is the earliest you can get it there?" When they're told the answer they will be told when to have it ready for collection or the latest time to get it to the shipping point. From then on they're not interested in the time of departure of the aircraft, which wouldn't have told them what they needed to know anyway. :( Iain Smith
September 24, 200916 yr Look for AI schedules as downloads in the library for FedEx and UPS. I have those as separate traffic.bgl files separately compiled and then do not compile those in my payware traffic add-on so there are no conflicts. I found for FedExthe download was more complete in the US and other countries.World of AI - Cargo Airlines (Scheduled & Charter) list and links at:http://www.world-of-ai.com/allpackages.phpFedEx is not available (perhaps prohibited by FedEx for security reasons). These are complete aircraft and plan packages.
