Test code ?!?! Hmmm, what does that mean ??? Are you possibly looking into an option to have routes displayed on a 3D globe, because if so, that would be awesome !!! . . . and of course a lot more realistic than on a flat projection map !!!

Cockpitvisit,
I thought it was worth mentioning that, after many years of using this tool now, I am very grateful for the work you've done. This is truly an excellent resource.
There is one enhancement that's probably easy to do that I would *love* to see.
I sometimes ask questions like, "What is the longest prop plane segment flown in South America?", or "What is the shortest widebody route that TG operates?" Sometimes this is just for fun, but other times it can be quite useful. For example, say you want to experience Airline YY's long-haul product for the least amount of money/miles... a good way to do this would be to just show Airline YY's routes served by widebodies. Won't give you the full answer, but at least it's a way to narrow down your quest.
To answer these questions, I can use the View>Options dialogue box. BUT, it's labourious to go through the list of 100 or more aircraft to select only the widebodies or only the prop planes.
Could we get several tickboxes that automatically select classes of aircraft? Such as: widebodies, narrowbodies, regional jets, prop planes, helicopters.

So this is going to stay a hobby project, sorry.
Will think about it, although for many regional planes, I myself would have to look up whether they are jets or turboprops

missing QF route
Hello,
First of all, since this is my first posting, let me say how utterly AWESOME your program is. Just incredible, and a very helpful tool for me.
I wanted to report to you that you are missing the LAX-JFK route of QF...QF107/108 do indeed still operate daily!
Thanks!

KEF should be present, try pressing Ctrl+F and searching for KEF. Be sure to select "all airlines" in the dropdown box. When you select a specific airline, only airports served by that airline will be shown.
