Nah - they can save money by handing a sheet that is totally filled in ie blank.

Is there any free way to enter all of your flights in on one page? versus having to click through two pages for each flight?

For a fee you can load them through a spreadsheet.

This was fun.:D
Sure is going to keep me busy punching in all the data. Gonna need help from my dad for the ones back in 1979, 1982......:rolleyes:

Come join the fun!

I'm about half way through entering 25 years of FF statements and now in the top 1% of miles, routes, segments.

I see that somebody claims to have flown over 400 different airlines. Maybe virtual?

The #1 in miles is over 7 million. Maybe a pilot?

I'm 354th in distance, and 270th in number of flights. I'm sure the top 100 is all long haulers or pilots.

Well, that was fun! Like many others have said, it's hard to choose how far back to go. I decided to start around the time I had my first child - my records from before that time were just too spotty. It shouldn't be too hard to keep up with the data now, though.

I also created separate accounts to enter all of my daughter's and son's flights. If flightmemory is still around (I hope so!), I think a poster of each of their travels will be a cool present for their 5th, 10th, etc., birthday. I've finished the ones for my daughter so far - she's gone 108,756 miles in under 4 years. Probably not the most impressive amount of flying for a FT baby, but still not too bad!

Not all of'em. I'm in the top 50 and did it primarily with thousands of domestic flights over the past 3 decades. And I've only entered about half so far.

I don't know. Am I in the top 100? While I have a lot of longhaul flights I also have a lot of short hops, and I'm not a pilot or crew.

Finally found some of my old monthly calendars and have been inputting my flights.

I'm missing about 4 months of working flights, as well as a LOT of commuter flights.

It says that I'm 28th in Distance with 2,269,075 mi, 26th in # of flights at 2,017, and 23rd in Duration 5284:43 hrs. (the hours would be alot different if I had more accurate times for about 4yrs)

I was able to find some old Air Force papers that allowed me to input my TDYs over the big pond. I do remember flying some trips in the 80s, but I'm not really worried about inputting them in. I pretty much started back in November 1990 when I started auditioning for a Drum and Bugle Corps in Chicago...I was living in Virginia at the time. I had a great friend who worked for United, so I was a very loyal UA pax for 10 years...

Took me about 1 full week to get everything that I have logged...Now it will be fun to see what tail#s I'll be flying on again and again, as well as see what departure times change...

That must have taken a long time to enter all those flights.

Try the spotting and ACARS logging communities. It's hit or miss, but they have many. This site is a good start, and you can follow leads from there to try to track down any that aren't in their database.

I wrote a small script to load them from a text file directy into the web interface. Anyone's who interested can send me a PM for details - knowing how to run a Perl script would be useful to run the script.

Anyone know of a way to lookup a particular plane if the tail number on bts.gov is not compatible with the N number lookup? For example, I recently took a flight from DFW-BDL, and bts.gov has the tail number as N3BJAA. Is there a way to "decode" this to an actual plane type?

TIA.

That's N932AN, a B737. 3BJ is AA's internal fleet number for that aircraft. Try looking in here http://web.archive.org/web/200401291...s/asr_sh00.htm
