CM, if you know your flight numbers for the ones without tail numbers, you can search from Jan. 1, 2006 forward on ACARSD.org. Find the date of the flight with the missing tail number, open the text-file for that date, then search for your flight:

XX####

XX= Airline Code (RP for Chautauqua)
#### = Flight number (for Flight 1, the numbering would be 0001).

If any Acars logger picked up your flight (there's heavy logging on the Eastern Seaboard), it will be there, and the tail number will display.

Houston Public Library online catalog claims to have OAGs going back to 1971. I spent over an hour there with staff on Monday evening. They had people combing the stacks looking for it, to no avail. :(

There are other ACARS logging sites out there with information going back before 1/1/2006, but they are not as well laid-out as ACARSD.org, and can be a real hassle to navigate. A google search should pull up some of them.

I'll have to take training next Jan/Feb. (big :rolleyes: for reasons I won't get into), and some options include Chigcao, Indianapolis, Houston and other TX areas, California, FL, and Ohio. Ho hum, where to go. :rolleyes:

Gotta love burger places that let you specify Medium Rare on their half-pound patties.

I once argued with a server when I wanted a burger medium and she insisted they only served then well done for safety reasons. Whatever. When I got the burger, it was rare and barely cooked. :rolleyes: I was sure to point that out.

Looks like The Box will celebrate Post 21,000 during OnePass' 21st Anniversary. Will Scott be rewarding all Box Posters who made this auspicious event possible with 21,000 Bonus Miles? :D

I keep checking my balance, nothing yet.

I know at one time Chautauqua's aircraft weren't equipped with ACARS, and as a result, you couldn't find them in those logs. That may have changed though.

Is it worth it to purchase furniture in Nebraska and to incur the charges for shipping back to Houston, as opposed to purchasing something slightly more expensive in Houston and only dealing with local shipping?

We only go there for the electronics, which we do as a carry on and See's candy (Both are Buffet companies now). It's definitely worth it then. BL Jrs crib came from there, but I got free shipping via a family friend ;)

I can't get the tail number for my first ever CRJ-200 flight that I took back in September ELP-IAH. A shame I can't forever memorialize such a phenomenal and auspicious event.

It saves you huge at MCO. That's the entire reason I got clear. I never know when I have to go and I'm there every few weeks - sometimes at spring break. I love being able to breeze through in five minutes instead of 45.

That is the first positive review of Clear I've heard! I'm glad to know it works somewhere.

It'll save you lots of time in ALB also because I've never, ever seen anyone use it, despite the 3 people manning the lane.:rolleyes:
