AFF Flight Tracker

[ayebee]

Hi all, and apologies if this is somewhere in the thread...
I had kept a spreadsheet for years with my flight record and recently have had a binge loading it into the tracker.

My question - I would like to record flights in/out of an airport that no longer exists, specifically the Avon STOLPort (WHR & presumably KWHR) in Colorado.
I note the "Add new airport" button, and was in process of adding WHR (I have the lat/long/altitude details) but I also noted the "are you sure you want to do this" dialogue boxes seemed discouraging.
Are there any rules / limitations in adding new airports?

If you are interested in the history, check this page Abandoned & Little-Known Airfields: Colorado: Northeastern Denver area
Coming into WHR was an experience. We buzzed the Vail back bowls, looped round Beaver Creek and dropped into the valley on a brilliant sunny day.
It was replaced mid 90's by Eagle Vail (EGE) to handle jets on direct flights from across US, where Avon was only suitable for the DHC-7 from Denver.

It seems that the banner image showing user flight tracker stats is not working at the moment? I'm just seeing an image placeholder for my own, and other user's signatures, where it has been linked...

Procrastinating here, instead of doing a uni assignment, there's some javascript in the official version of openflights that's not in the AFF Flight Tracker that may be preventing me at this stage from editing airline data. I'm not great at that web stuff, so keep getting errors, but we'll see what can be done. Obviously, we don't want to open it up too much for fear someone could abuse the system.

Hey Sam, did you manage get any further with this?

Has anyone been having issues lately? I've added new flights with rego details; but it's gone wild...Now showing that I've made heaps of flights with in the same few days, all in cattle class. But sems part of my history of flights are now gone (I've trashed all boarding passes once they are added).about to board, gotta go.

That's odd... no problems here.

Same for me.

I will screen shot it within a day or so; or others can view it in my profile.

I just added a bunch of flights, no probs. Suggest you contact Admin direct as well.

One of these days I'll get around to downloading all my flights, putting them in the correct order and upload....

I look in envy RF . I must fill in some gaps. Parts of W Africa hold some intrigue.

You know if you have the data on another website you could just ask someone like Serfty to add it to AFF flight tracker, shouldn't take him too long, maybe an hour.

I still don't see the profile banner image showing my AFF flight tracker stats anymore... I don't see mine, or other users... I don't see it when I go into the settings page of the AFF Flight Tracker, either. Is it just me?

In the signature panels, all I see is this:



Cheers,
Matt.

What is the underlying url?

I'm sure he appreciates you volunteering his time!

It's a known issue right now.

Hi serfty - this is the image location, but looks like from samh004's note that it ain't just me!

I had the same problem a while ago and dropped it out of my signature area (see below).

To answer serfty's question, I copied the code from the Bulletin Board box in settings within AFF Tracker. It is as follows with [ ] brackets removed:

Anything further on this - has anyone had their Flight Tracker banner return?

This has been discussed but at this stage there is no update.

Any ideas? I have had a problem for a while that cannot add new flights. When I go into flight tracker (via "home" button after going in thru AFF) my map is there, can zoom in, etc on the map part, but everything outside the map area (ie new flights, stats, etc etc) is completely non-responsive
