The layout of statistics is rearranged. The country flags appear next to airports, and the # of flights list and flight miles list per airline are side by side.
I'm trying to figure out this "Benchmark" thing.

i really like this tool/site. one thing that bugs me about entering flight info though is the separated screens for location/date/time info and flight number/airline/extra info. can't these be on one page ? is it perhaps an advertising imprints thing ?
great tool at any rate. can't complain too much about free stuff

Poster?
Can anyone comment on the quality? I was thinking of getting one for my ManCave as a conversation piece. I am only including travels from the last 10 years and these are vacations, non-wrk stuff only. However, most of my flights are US, Caribbean, and Mexico (one trans-Pac, one south america, and a few TATL), I was curious as to the quality of the North American Poster for discerning the airports in Mexico/Carribean.
I ask because the map on the website looks like a jarbled mess on the Mexico/Caribbean portions.
thanks

Can any decode three AA tail numbers.
I know that American often reports internal fleet numbers to the BTS. I have decoded many of the MD-80's but I can't figure these out. I think some might have been Boeing 727's. But I'm not sure.

Any help would be appreciated.

great....what size do you recommend? I was thinking of the $96 one, not the largest one.
Also, does the N. American poster include central america or does it stop around the mexico/guatemala border?

I bought the largest possible size. To give you an idea of the level of detail, the distance on the map between SJU and STT is about 1 centimeter.
The southernmost airport is SJO, and it has all of Alaska (even Barrow) and Hawaii as well as BDA.

Any advise on how to enter a diverted flight? I was on a DL flight to ATL last night that got diverted to BHM due to weather/lack of fuel. We weren't let out of the airplane. Nor did we officially pull into a gate. We sort of just sat in the corner for 2 hours waiting. Does this count as a visit to BHM? I don't suppose DL is going to give me any extra miles, but we did watch the safety video twice.
Seriously though, any thoughts? The normally 1:29 flight took nearly 6 hours of my life so I would really like to document something. Thanks.

F/As did a quickie version of the safety demo (since, at least at the time, all the ex-TWA 757s were doing manual demonstrations).
It was like some "direct" flights that I've been on that I did not bother getting off the plane and counted those, so I figured this would count as well.

Using this tool, the first one comes back to a Dassault Falcon - not an AA plane.
The last two are not valid N-numbers. You can see the criteria here, but in short, as you can have a maximum of two alpha characters at the end of the N-number, the last two clearly are invalid.
Did these come from the side of actual AA planes? If so, my guess is there's a transcription error somewhere.
Also, I assume you know that AA doesn't fly any 727's anymore.
