New Stats

BA97 - I love the new stats on the front page. Or have I just not seen them before?

Of all miles posted 44.3 % are in Y and 42.4 % are in J.

My aren't we a bunch of tarts

Come on guys and gals we only need a few more J bookings to out do those Y fellows.

Have you figured out what your percentage of the total miles is?

And you certainly aren't helping the 'tart factor'

...but to the tart figure one should really include the 10% or so of FIRST.

Therefore officially, more tart flights registered then Y.

... now we just need to know what percentage of those are U/G to from Y to a "TART" class.

Indeed, Kiwi Flyer, you feature prominently in this, the first BAFTA-rivalling "ba97 calendar awards 2006":

Most miles recorded: Kiwi Flyer (821,430 miles)
Most sectors recorded: Rambuster (524 sectors)
Oldest sector recorded: TMC (LHR-CPT on 7th Feb 1999)
Shortest average sector distance*: chris1979 (284 miles)
Longest average sector distance*: Tits McGhee (3317 miles)

I've got the fifth highest total. Interesting to note that the top five flyers account for 3 million of the 12.5 million miles flown!

(* where number of sectors > 10)

I think some of those include future flights - only some of which I have yet entered into the calendar.

Nevertheless it is kinda scary to think by the end of the year will be about 1 million flown miles in 3 years

And that is averaging in his ABZ-LHR that he does before and after each long haul.

Nice calender, very interesting.

Actually my average sector (LHR-BKK) is probably among the longest, but I only registered two flights, so that is not representative.

Excuse me for ingoring the fine print at the bottom.

This means I should update my flights...

Particularly important if you have a high "Tart rating" (see above)!
