newbie question on leased aircraft

[jamie]

quick question on something I can't figure out.

I'm trying to set up a route. Gates are available and I have a perfectly
good 737 sitting on the tarmac with plenty of hours left.  Still, when I
try to create the route, I can't select the plane.
Route mileage is well within plane's range.

Any thoughts on what I'm missing here?

thx all

Check if the plane flies through the start city or the end city.

[pseudoswede]

* Is the start city and/or end city one of your established bases?
* How many hours are left and what is the distance between the cities?
* Does the plane appear on the list? If so, is the Freq = 0?
