Hi guys, this is Augusto Casado I was just transfered from DVA, I flew for them almost 2 years and decided to transfer.
I was a T7 Captain at DVA and well, now here I am a T7 f/o
I think the 'rules' and everything around here is the same/like overthere at DVA, right?
Well, thanks for your time and I hope to have a great time around here

Welcome Augusto! Everything works in much the same way over here - there's a few minor differences, but nothing drastically different. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask away!

Thanks, Dan, Michael and Robert, for the warm welcome!
My only question right now, would be, how could I get the B747-400ERF and B777-200LRF? Since I was a 777 Captain I have both 777 and 747 ratings. Also, do you know any good freewares for both B747-400ERF and B777-200LRF aircrafts?
Thanks again,
Augusto

Welcome to AFVA, Augusto! I've updated your profile accordingly with the ratings you should have - the ones you don't get at DVA
As Robert stated, enjoy the code shares and keep your eyes peeled, in about 30 days the schedule will get really interesting.
Freeware B777-200F and B747-400ERF can be found at Project Opensky, although a panel is missing.

Steve-- Thanks for the ratings I see there are a LOT of codeshares.. May I ask why in about 30 says the schedule will get interesting?
Will get those planes! Panel it's not an issue, I know how to install the panels for other aircrafts
Thanks again

Welcome aboard Augusto-you'll enjoy it here at AFV-we have some accomplishments unique to us and I'm sure you'll enjoy the European flying-I transferred from DVA a while back, and I haven't regretted it.
