Flight numbering system

[ChrisUS]

Does anyone know what the dividing number is to differentiate between which flight is operated by West metal vs East metal?

For mainline, 700 is the magic number (though I never can remember which side flight 700 falls on ).

Sorry etops while I was flipping the trip sheet pages checking this numbering system out you beat me to the punch.

Thanks, everyone. Don't know why I never remember which side gets #700 - onset of senility, perhaps. At any rate, that little tidbit of info always fades away.

it's ok baby. it's easier if you go on catrew and go to option 3 and type in flt number 700. if you look all of the transatlantic flt #'s now are 7## numbers.

I know but the trip sheets are soooo much more entertaining! Flip the page, turn it over, no wait turn it the other way, dam! now find your reading glasses, so forth and so on......pure entertainment!

Thanks! It will be interesting to see the changes after we are under one certificate.
