As joejones states, arrival times are crudely estimated based on distance; this is not a new feature, and has been there for quite some time.
1) Tab from date, which is already entered from previous segment
2) Type departure time, then click to arrival time (because I have those two numbers in front of me at the same time, and tabbing goes to the wrong place)
At the moment, the tab ordering should be completely skipping over departure time! What browser are you using?
If possible, an auto-filled field should not overwrite something already manually entered.
Yes, this is the rule it's already supposed to be obeying. I'll double-check the logic.
Auto-complete on the aircraft is buggy, too--I kept typing Boeing 737-800 and it kept getting overwritten with Boeing 737-400. (Confusingly, too, if it thought that it auto-filled Boeing 737-400 and I went to backspace over the 400 to type 800, it would delete the whole entry rather than just the final characters.) I was also trying to type Bombardier Q400, and as I typed, it kept scrolling down the list of Airbus aircraft. After I finished typing and hit tab, it replaced Bombardier Q400 with Airbus A320.
Typing Bombardier Q400 a second time worked.
Yeah, autocomplete is currently pretty much hosed, a total rewrite is in the works.
