OT: Please register on FlightMemory
 

Dear India forum members, requesting you to please setup an account on FlightMemory if you haven't already. If we cross more than 200 registrations from India, they will create a India-specific map for us who travel domestically.

Please do sign up....PFA email from FlightMemory on my request to include an India map in their website:

At the moment, we are receiving many queries for country-maps/continental maps from all over the world. As we need to find a solution for all queries about maps - here is our democratic proposal:

Once we have 200 users from a country, we will create a country map - until then, we hope you can help us get more users from your country by using the "invite"-function on the site.

indialogue, we can only ask you for your patience - we know the "dilemma" but at the same time, we are way too small to solve everything very quickly and our maps are all self developed so one of us needs to sit down for each map and we are just two people running this site.
This said, I am sure, we will soon find a solution for India.

Thank you for supporting FlightMemory!

sign me up....

Just signed up.. Same user ID as the one on FlyerTalk :)

FT handle: josethilak

Updating..come on members! Am sure if you have a FM account, that you are also a member of this forum (maybe not vice-versa)

I am there also, with my username being a2a

My handle on FlightMemory is rajitmathur

Upto 6. Getting to 200 is going to take a while I see. Please ask your friends and family to register as well!

My ID on FM is: GuyFromBOM.
I did use FM for quite some time, but their lack of regional maps & loads of ads made me switch to other sites...

OpenFlights.org is good, but I prefer FlightDiary.net , you can view my history here: flightdiary.net/GuyFromBOM

Flightdairy is really nice but I have over 90 flights stored in Flightmemory :( Wish there was an easy way to export from FM into FD. Any ideas?

As of now, FD does not allow importing directly from FM.

But, here is the best alternative to manually feeding all the info:

1. Created a new account with both- OpenFlights & FlightDiary.
2. Using the 'Import' option on OF, get the data from your FlightMemory A/c to the new OF A/c.
3. Repeat the same procedure in FlightDiary, except you will now import from OF.

In short: FM >> OF >> FD
You may use all 3 and then decide which is the best database as per your liking.

While we are at it, could someone kindly help me set my FlightDiary banner as a 'Signature' on FT. I have been looking for options out here, but don't know how to enable the Signature.

I already have an FM....same user name snod08 as on FT

Me too.. same user name as in FT.

You require 90 days / 90 posts on FT to have a signature.

Add nomdeplume as well, pls
 

Good initiative.
Please add my username as well.

Thanx.

Been on FM for a while now. Do add my name as well, same handle as in FT.

Thanks for the info.

Besides the above method that i suggested, FD has activated a new feature that allows users to Import / Export their data using a CSV file. Do check it out.

Thanks! Tried it out and went mostly smoothly except for some stuttering on importing S2 and PNW flights. Got 80-odd imported in, have another 10 to do manually

Add my name to the list... same id as here.

how did you export the flightmemory data?

Also is there a template for the .CSV files for flight diary?

I use FD personally. and I love it.

Dear Whizkid, please the 1st quoted section on how to export flightmemory data. Its not a perfect method but it gets most of the flights exported fine

FD is better looking by far

Thanks,

I found 2 issues,

1. Defunct airlines (Paramount & Air Deccan) are getting imported and available in FD when you enter manually.

2. The Dates of the Flights are not getting imported to FD from OF (Which is a big issue for me)

Any one faced the same issues? - Any Workarounds?

Wow, its been about 10 days since I last visited FD... They have had a major overhaul..!

1. Until a while ago, S2 was listed as Air Sahara and G8 was listed as Gujarat Airways. (Send a Feedback & the admin will update the database after verification)

2. Check the parameters / format requirements for OF vs FD (dd-mm-yyyy, mm-dd-yyyy, or others) and then in the MS Excel file, select the entire date series and format it in the matching pattern. To format text in MS Excel, highlight the data>> right click>> "Format Cells">> Select "Date">> Select the appropriate format.

PS: If you contact the admin in FD using the "Send Feedback" option, they are quick to revert & help-out.

Thanks.

Another option missing in FD wrt OF is a option to delete all the entries. Like wipe all data. It would have been much helpful to try out the import feature - not I'm forced to delete each lines seperatly

Like i mentioned earlier, use the "Send Feedback" option. They may be able to reset your logs.

Also, try using the Banner into your 'signature' block.

flightmemory has 180 indian users now. so 20 more to get the maps !

sign me in as well, username - savneet

joined

I am there too

perhaps we are all there in terms of th count from India. so they need 20 more signups. and india will be on the maps in 2012.

On there as well, US based now, but with a lot of flying in India thrown in.
<---Same username.

I have also joined with username as kanwkwal

How were you able to get the number of Indians on the site? If its already so close, can write to them using my previous thread and this one here and ask them to add India as an option pronto!

I am in touch with the guy on twitter. and he said he'll do it in 2012. tends to always tell me how it is a 1 or 2 man operation with real day jobs .. so pronto he wont do it, but when he has the time he will

Any update on this A2A. Still no India map up yet
