Could you make this happen?
Well, regardless of whether KVS is willing to do it or not, looks like EF wouldn't allow me to do it anyway. They are clearly watching this thread, and promptly sent me a PM:
Regarding your post in the KVS thread. So there is no confusion, we would never let KVS screen scrape from us (and yes we would be able to detect it) and any customer caught doing so will have their account terminated and subscription fee forfeited. Using automated or robotic tools to access ExpertFlyer is expressly prohibited in our Terms of Use.
Doesn't look like they want me as a paying ExpertFlyer customer, either.
