This will contain the changes in the program for each update and display a future "to do" list.
Pattern Files:
The program requires you to download the PDFpattern files from DeltaNet flight operation page. Instructions for doing this are found on in the Operation Manual link under BA3 Manuals & Instructions on this web page.
Operation User Manual:
If you purchased the CDROM program, the operation manual will be placed in the All Programs section of your Start button. If you are using the installation/upgrade method, the operation manual will be placed in the program folder (C:\Bid_Asst3) on your computer. The programs operation will explain the operation of the BA3 program and options available.
Hotel Information:
The Delta pattern files do not include hotel phone numbers. To include the phone numbers on the calendar and the printed patterns, a Hotel Information file is available on this web page. This information is copied from the DeltaNet site for use with the BA3 program. Hotels are constantly changing so you will want to download the current hotel information file on your computer. All program updates include the latest hotel info file.
