» FlightStatus v2.00 Description

Retrieve from the Internet live Flight Status for most all commercial flights which operate in the U.S. Over 70 airlines are supported. All you need to know is the airline and the flight number. Flight Status will do the rest. Also included is a flight number lookup feature - useful when you don't know the flight number and an airport/city lookup table. Features:
  • This software is useful whether you are trying to catch a flight or as an aid when picking someone up at the airport.
  • This program supports any Palm OS device that has an Internet connection (SmartPhones such as the Treo and Samsung lines, Wi-Fi enabled palms and bluetooth enabled palms that have Internet access via a bluetooth enabled cell phone.)
  • This software is about 10 times faster than using your palm's conventional browser to get this information.
  • This software was written by a high school freshman and is being offered as freeware/begware. No subscriptions, no fees.
  • This software is handy when you need to pickup someone at the airport. It will tell you very accurately when the flight is going to land or when a flight is estimated to take off. NOTE: All actual departure times are the time of takeoff not the time the flight departed from the gate. Actual arrival times are the time of landing not the time the aircraft arrived at the gate.
  • This application is a palm application not a .pqa.
Update Description:
v2.00:
- Added Gate Information for airlines marked with an '*'.
- Added baggage claim information for airlines marked with '**'. v1.05:
- Improved speed of data retrieval while reducing the amount of data transferred by a factor of 10 or 20 times. Enjoy v1.02:
- Check the time it takes to clear Atlanta Security in real time.

Great program, but I noticed in the 2.0 update that instead of giving the actual altitude, it now give 1/10 of the altitude! You now have to add a 0 to the given altitude to show the real one! Wonder why that changed.

I downloaded 2.0, and I've tried several airlines and the flight path option works but the Get Live Flight Status always gives an "Unexpected Data Returned" error. I would find this program helpful if I could get it working.

I downloaded 2.0 and was impressed that you added gate info. The program was working great until just recently. Did internet addresses change for accessing data?

Same. "Unexpected Data Returned" for Get Live Flight Status. Flight path works. Any fix?

"Unexpected Data Returned" When attempting to access any data for any Airline. Appears the fetch part of this app is need of a re-write as the data format has changed.

I used the previous version, which worked great. Then it stopped. I just downloaded v. 2.02 from the author's site, http://andrewsoft.net/downloads.html. He's fixed the bugs and it's functional again.
