Thank you!
Hey Everyone, welcome back from xmas break
. No notes section, at least yet. Can you list the most common content you would add, for my learning?

- Fall 2022 flighty had some cool stats that you could share, but they dissapeared for the new year update
- I love the stat screens recently added into flighty, but I really hope they don't go away again
- I would love to see a list of tail numbers and click on them to see which flights I had on them. I know in the recent update you show which tail nos I've been on most, but a complete list would be very nice.
- When looking at a flight page, it shows the route historical info, but it only shows your most recent 10 flights on that route (I want to see them all)
- On a flight page, it would be great if it told you if you've flown on that tail number before (or showed the recent flights you've had on that tail)
- I fly on some asian airlines that don't reliably publish their tail numbers in a way that flighty can find it, it would be great if I could manually enter the tail number just like I can enter a seat number.
- A screen to explore the routes you've traveled on would be amazing
- I like the flat map projections offered in the "passport" view, do you think you could do anything like that but constrain it to certain regions (e.g. NA, South East Asia, Europe). There are many small countries in SEA that I've flown to and you can't really see the map due to the high density of the airport dots. If the whole screenspace was available then it would be more meaningful.
Pretty much every stat you asked for was added a few days after this post in v3.3
and they are not going away. And you can now also see if you've been on that exact tail before in a flight! And your most repeated tails in stats
Good feedback on the extra asks too.

When I'm running late to the airport I use flighty's add flight tool to enter my start and destination and can see all the flights today, so if I need to change flights I already know which flight number I want before I get to the checkin counter.
THIS! Most people don't realize that other apps don't show all live statuses *in Search* in such browsable way.

Also being able to manually add the flight in that case should be a must, it really puzzles me why this hasn’t been done yet.
Oh and forwarding flights doesn’t work. Constant error that email is not confirmed (it obviously is). Great UI, sucks that functionality is subpar.
Smaller airlines often don't file plans correctly or at all with authorities. Apps that are mostly just ADSB can still find the flight *once it's active* (just like we can, but it *looks* like they are failing at less, because they show less).
I can explain exactly why forcibly adding flights hasn't been done yet! 1. Every single user currently operates off the same flight database "truth". 2. Thus to allow each user to enter *their own truth* that doesn't get added for everyone is a BIG infra change. We will do it, but that should solve the puzzle.
I'm not familiar with the email issue you're talking about, can you email support a) from inside the app b) with a list of any/all email addresses that you have previously registered. We can check them.
It would certainly be a welcome feature.
I tried entering some past flights and only got back a couple of years before I ran up against a brick wall: BA flights to/from the former TXL airport weren't found. Not really obscure.
I love y'all.
For real. Keeping us honest! "Closed" airports are non-trivial but we have support, and review them quarterly, and if you just tell us via support email we'll reply when it's done, removing the "brick wall"

Any chance I could pay specifically for adding past flights? I could care less about the power-user feature during flights as I only fly a twice a year during school breaks where I'd pay weekly. Instead, I'd love to have a comprehensive record in one place and am happy to paying for it a la carte.
It's free to add anything within the last 365 days. And Flighty Pro users can add unlimited past flights. So no need to "pay significantly"!
