COPY of Post 1 (from wilsnunn) for if the thread gets too long:
How much of the BA flight network does the BAEC FlyerTalk community fly in 2020?
It was suggested in another thread (see here: Any Gaps in our collective knowledge?) that it would be a fun/interesting task to see how much of the whole BA network of flights we as a community here on FlyerTalk actually fly in a given year.
After a bit of discussion in the afore mentioned thread, we came up with the idea of a Google Sheets document to track flights taken by the community.
If people here are genuinely interested in persuing this task then I am sure that it would lead to some very interesting results.
Rules:
The Google sheet is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...vid=1896029868
Obviously this will not be of interest to everybody but for those who are interested, I hope that this proves to be a fun and interesting experiment.
Note: if you wish to participate but wish to add an extra level of anonymity on top of your FT username, then please feel free to assign yourself another pseudonym and participate that way.
If you have any questions then please let me know.

I suggest people opening in an "In Private" window thus keeping their personal Google accounts out of it.

Rules:
- You must only edit the Google Sheet when not logged into your own Google account (personal/business etc) so as to remain anonymous to the community (and to me the owner of the Google sheet using a new account that is not being used for anything else)
- You can only add your flight to the list once you have flown it (incase of IRROPS, change of plans etc)
- You have to have flown on the flight using its BA flight number
- This means that if you flew on BA113 but were ticketed as AA6134 for example this should not be included
- This also means that if you have flown QR1 but it was actually ticketed as BA7001 this should be included

Added BA4816 and BA0296 and glad to get back into LHR this morning before the worst of the effects of storm Ciara.

I sneaked a new one in, the day before I actually fly (hope that's a rule bend, not a breakage). BA0776 LHR to ARN at 07.15
But given the prevalence of low fares out of ARN, I can't be the first FTer to take this flight (unless those doing an ex-EU always sensibly go out the night before)?

Another quick update from me:
- Exactly 400 flights logged
- 308 different BA flight numbers have been flown
- 121 different individuals have recorded their flights
- LHR has been visited exactly 300 times
I have also added a link to an interactive map in the Google Sheet, showing all the flown routes (which I found quite interesting to see BA codeshares that I had no idea existed)
Here is the map as things stand currently:
All flown routes on a map as of 9:15pm on 14-Feb. (The image in this post will not be updated)
All these measures (and more) as well as the link to the up-to-date and interactive map can be found on the Stats page of the Google Sheet for anybody interested. [Click on "🔒 Stats" at the bottom of the screen]
