We have had a number of members recently try to change the delivery airport field on aircraft because they want them delivered to there home airport rather than the airport where the real world factory is located. One pilot who changed the delivery airport of the A321neo to EGNX. I am wondering why members think this is an appropriate thing to do? I am also thinking that for aircraft edits this should be an admin only field.
What do others think.

Delivery airport Edits
I've sworn an oath of solitude until the pestilence is purged from the lands.
Re: Delivery airport Edits
yup on admin only
The youtube link below shows how Southwest accepts a new airplane from Boeing:

So we have Real world precedent They don't get them delivered either. FSA operators should be happy they can still make a little money on the delivery acceptance flight out of the factory as real airlines do not.
VA's who don't want the hassle of flying it to their home base from the factory can just instantly transfer it.
