STS not in the FF database?
Hello, Just my $0.02: was trying to ascertain whether a 3-segment run from LAX to STS via PDX and SEA was worth the cost. Couldn't get STS to work. Used OAK as a rough substitute.

Got another missing airport - NAV - Nevşehir Kapadokya Airport in Turkey
ASR (Kayseri) is a decent (close) alternative for right now.
Great tool, been using it for years to determine all those glorious miles I'll be racking up

Updated
The datafile has been updated with all airports listed in this thread.
ARPT.dat - June 16, 2011
You'll want to 'save as' this file into the Flying Fish program directory.

Sorry - and thank you!
There's me sticking to a schedule...!
Thanks for the reminder. Consider this alpha-quality until further notice. Several things about the tokenized picker (like after you delete a certain airport) are still producing minor bugs. It's possible, but not expected, that your browser may crash...computer may catch on fire...etc. so be warned.
So here it is:
Great Circles - http://www.greatcircl.es
I have a 'status bar' animation in progress and hope to get that going very soon. Then, reporting some mileages on the route! For now you can enter tokenized mileages using the autocomplete picker. Soon, you should be able to drag and drop tokens. Or as a shortcut you can prepopulate airports while loading the page:
http://www.greatcircl.es/?p=IAD-NRT - prepopulated with Dulles and Narita
There's also a set of JSON-enabled APIs I'm using. For example, you can feed the page a pair of airports:
http://www.greatcircl.es/?d=IAD-NRT - returns distance between Dulles and Narita (statute miles for now)
http://www.greatcircl.es/?r=IAD-NRT - returns lat/lon pairs to draw the Great Circle route between Dulles and Narita (currently one every 60 miles)
You can use any non-alphanumberic character as delimiter (not just a dash).

I just had a quick look and it looks great, especially the API is a good idea! I am missing YOW (Ottawa, Canada) though.And if I remove a segment it will not remove the line or dot.
