You have to manually scroll through the range of the dates. You cannot say "give me all the flights this week" but you can query each of the 7 days and use the keyboard commands to reasonably easily scroll through the days. You do still have to wait for the app to go query .bomb and parse and display the data but it is faster than using .bomb directly because of the way it reformats the data for reading.

And you have to be willing to put up with the "RTFM" help offered when you ask a question.
