Dispatching a Charter Flight

Access the Flight Center via the icon in the left sidebar.

You will be presented with the My Flights screen, which will show any dispatched flights that are ready to be flown.

Create a Charter Flight

A Charter Flight is merely a flight that you create on your own, based on whatever flight criteria you desire.

To create a new Charter Flight, click the Dispatch Charter button.

Provide Charter Flight Details

On the "Charter a Flight" screen, populate the details required to create the flight. All fields except for the route are required.

Here is an explanation of each field:
