Greetings,
Has anyone noticed that there are no (I mean, not one) flight assignments for most of the a/c in the list? Is there a reason or a glitch or ... ? Just trying to figure out what's going on.
Thanx,
Mathieu Hampton

We have the new Delta time table in place, and when we erased the old data the flight assignments went with it. Not sure what were going to do at this point.

To build on what Mark said, because the flight numbers will change from month to month with this new technology, the flight assignments are now obsolete and will probably disappear. None of the staff have the time necessary to create assignments on the scale that we had them every month. Luke did, however, mention creating a new system that will allow the server to create assignments automatically but I don't know how that's coming. Luke?

That's the problem. Due to the high demand for assignments, we just don't have time to make enough. That's why we need to build on this server technology.

www.air-source.us has this system that searches the website of the online timetable for the flights, that's the best way I can explain it, that way the flights are always the most current. You can search by a/c by departure or arrival. I'll see if I can find out more, maybe we can use something like that. I'm not saying that their system is better but it just seems effortletless on their part other than the intial code.
