H C Chai 4 Report post Posted November 21, 2008 (edited) Ehem, I mean between H C Chai, Keith T and I. Definitely not me! With recession predicted to be in full swing by 2009 and the £££ losing grounds against most of the major currencies, I guess I will be taking more trips on trains than planes. I still have some miles to burn on bmi and Skywards (expiring soon) but will probably use them for trips in 2010.

Seth K 3 Report post Posted November 22, 2008 You should have a FlightMemory account, Seth. Your page must be really cool with Nigeria and such. Plus, no one in MalaysianWings have Emirates as their no. 1 airline in FlightMemory. I'll sign up during winter break when I am a bit free. Emirates is my no. 1 airline since 3 years ago, before it was AF, BA, CO. Yeah, 30+ countries visited and yet to go to australia lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 Just a head up, like all successful projects, copycats followed. 2 new website/tool have emerge, offering (not quite) the same application as FlightMemory. They are: OpenFlights http://openflights.org/ Flightmap http://flightmap.net/ If any of us here has registered with any of this 2 websites, perhaps you could share the interface? On first glance, the maps on Flightmap especialy is very attractive (they are using Google Earth map) when compared to FlightMemory. OpenFlights have banners of its users, like FM. Both website have some statistics that FM doesn't offer too. Anyway, there is a new application from FM. Users can now track flights live. The progress of the flight, time to arrival and such will be available to viewers, along with the standard info like airlines, routes and aircraft types.

It all depends on the perspective ... I for once care much more for flying in as many different types of aircraft as possible. So, here´s my "success-story": unterschiedliche Flughäfen 148 (airports) unterschiedliche Airlines 107 (airlines) unterschiedliche Flugzeugtypen 98 (aircraft types) unterschiedliche Flugzeuge 284 (aircraft/regs) unterschiedliche Flugrouten 257 (routes) unterschiedliche Länder 34 (countries) I think this gives quite a different image compared to just counting the kilometers/miles and the total number of flights ...

H C Chai 4 Report post Posted November 3, 2009 (edited) I just copied all my flight segments from Flight Memory (FM) to OpenFlights.org (OF). The data transfer isn't as tedious as I thought, but it is not too straightforward either. There is a step by step guide on how to do the transfer on the OF site. It took me less than 30 minutes from signing up to completing all the data transfer (I have 215 segments in FM). However I need to do some tidying up later because OF does not recognise some airports and airlines. This is mostly due to the fact that I entered the incorrect information on FM. The main reason I am doing this is because OF offers a better and more user friendly map which can be zoomed in and out. It also has some statistics not offered by FM, as mentioned by Azizul previously. One of the tools I like is that the viewer can filter the route map by airlines and year. For example, I can ask the map to show me the flights I have taken with AirAsia: I am not abandoning FM (I still like them - except the map!) and will be updating my future flights on both sites - should not be a problem since I am not a frequent flyer.

Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted November 3, 2009 Traitor! (LOL) Hey Calvin, the map is better, but I thing flightmap.net has the best among the 3 sites. The filter statistic is a bit interesting, choosing 'Top 50' led me to almost your entire record (except for maybe those sectors with only 1 flight only). The banner - what's the number of days for? To show how long one has been a member? Their banner looks better than those of FM. I think FM needs to do some cosmetic changes to its interface and these small details to make it look fresher.

Yes the filter statistic is interesting, and it reveals a lot more information than Flight Memory too... maybe a bit too much info for some.

Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted December 5, 2009 So, it took me 241 days to move up from flight no. 199 to flight no. 200 - it's that long. Now looking forward for my flight no. 300, which if current speed is taking into consideration, I would reach it within 5 years. I have 209 flights at the moment, which is not too shabby when compared to those in the 200+ list (like Keith T and HC Chai). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted March 2, 2010 Some updates on my recent FlightMemory's milestone: 1. I finally reached 200,000 miles! The feat was achieved through flight EK 804 JED-DXB on 23 February 2010. Now looking forward to arrive on the moon, soon. 2. I finally flew on the A380 - twice! My much anticipated A380 flight was realised with the great Emirates Airlines. Superb aircraft, wonderful product, very special memory and I think I had the best Economy Class flight ever with them.
