PIREP Actual Times

[zacmia]

Hey guys, I've tried searching for this and can't seem to find an answer anywhere.. does anyone know if it's possible or how to show on the pirep_viewreport the actual times for the phases, like preflight started at __:__, takeoff at __:__

Thanks in advance for anyone that is able to help.

What ACARS program do you use? Most of the info should be available in the log of the ACARS program. Chances are you aren't going to see any start time for pre-flight, but starting taxi, takeoff, etc should be available.

Some specific times should show in the log file. No idea if you can pull from the log, capture the data and display on the site. Also, specifc times for different flight phases should display below the acars map while the pilot is in that flight phase.

Hi @zacmia . its somewhat possible but you have to code it and do some text partial matching. Example, you can do partial search for Preflight, then cut it into chunks (array) and retrieve the timing for the preflight. Once you got the algorithm right for the Preflight, just use it to get take off and that will be it.  You need to get the data from the databasse and show it into the pirep_viewreport page.
