Administrators Nabeel Posted September 23, 2008 Administrators Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Hey,That means that http://www.geonames.org/ doesn't have any info on em'. Wah :mrgreen: Regarding your other post - unfortunately, you have to have a schedule. Since PIREPs etc are based on having that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warchild Posted September 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 ::huckles:: i just may do that ::LOL; Theres a wonderful Wiki page with practically every airport in the world on it arrange alphabetically by ICAO.As for shcedules... Oi.. I'm probably going to over complicate it like I always do so bear with me.. I'm a dispatch company. So joe shmoe walks into the office and he's got a shipment of 10 tons of fertilizer he needs to get from podunk illinois, to eukia california. both of the airports are postage stamp airports. i create a job order, which in turn generates a flight and flight number that goes on the hot board to be bid on. the flight gets flown, the pirep gets filed, and if the pilot made it on time he gets the hours, if he is overtime, he gets docked. then the flight is checked off, put into the records and is removed from the board.. Thats pretty much exactly what i would like to accomplish. my partner has some excel scripts that randomly generate cargo loads and airports. I'd use those as the basis for the job orders and to generate the departure and arrival icao's for the flight. Once the flight is done and logged, i need to remove it from the schedule as it's a one shot deal. otherwise, all i've got is the same old boring VA thing going on. Theres no game. nothing to gain lose or be challenged by.. Thanks again Nabeel..Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nabeel Posted September 23, 2008 Administrators Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Well you can create a schedule then, direct the pilot to the flight number, place the booking and then PIREP it, and then disable that schedule aftewards. I guess that's the workaround I would suggest for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warchild Posted September 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 it is a workaround, but it'll work for now.. :DPam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nabeel Posted September 23, 2008 Administrators Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Or, instead of creating schedules, you can manually edit the pilot's hours after they tell you. But schedules would be the best way.You can't really delete schedules (I think, I'll have to check) because the PIREPs are tied to them. I'm reorganizing a few of these things, so it may be possible again. The first time around I may have made things a little too strict in terms of that way.
