??? As soon as I tried to get details of a flight, it pushed me to subscribe?

There's also data you seem to have gotten from there that I don't think FlightStats has?



I almost exclusively use FlightStats by changing the URLs because it's quicker. It still charges credits if you do that for an individual flight though. I think the difference you're noticing is that if you're not looking at individual flight details, just a group of flights (e.g. all PHL-LHR flights on a given day, or all departures by US from ZRH on a given day), it doesn't charge you for that and never has. But as soon as you go down to the individual flight level, whether through the search function or URL, you'll see it deduct a credit.
I forgot to mention that it has a monthly/yearly subscription, but it's worth it.

And yes, I change the URLs for groups of flights only, not individual details. I combine both FlightStats and byAir to reconstruct flights that sometimes span half a month lol.

I'll throw a few more in the mix here. I've checked FlightAware, FlightStats, acarsd.org, and BTS, as applicable, for all of these. Where I can conclusively determine the inbound or return, I've noted it. By the way, I try to always post the actual arrival/departure times, as sometimes when a flight is delayed this can help figure out ambiguous ACARS data, inbounds, etc.

Even though this app seems fairly new, seems like they have a lot of historical data? Any idea where they're getting it from and whether it's reliable? Like is it coming from a good source that you could otherwise access but it's quicker to get it from there, or have they tapped in to something that wasn't publicly available, but that should be solid?

@zeus1309 not that I doubt the info, but can I ask where this came from? FlightStats doesn't go back that far, and the scheduled and block times would be nice to have for some of the other flights I'm looking for, even ones where I might already have the registrations.
@Adam Smith I'm working for a major airline and have access to historical flight data :D

US9010 seems to have been a ZRH-PHL flight. Not sure whether it would have been a ferry flight or a charter or what with that flight number, I'm not at all familiar with US's operations. But here's the FlightAware track:


Track for US729:


But...



The same is also true of the ZRH-PHL route that year, which was usually US711. And if we assume one of these aircraft did a LHR-PHL and the other a ZRH-PHL, would the 752 have the legs to do ZRH-PHL?

I noticed that the day before (27th), US711 was cancelled. I'd therefore hazard a guess that US9010 on the 28th was a replacement segment for the previous day's US711.

It seems this forum often has great access to data on flights involving Switzerland, so I wonder whether someone might have info on the aircraft that operated US9010 on the 28th or the US710 that arrived on the 27th.

For what it's worth, the lhr-lgw archives also show a 752 operating 728/729 on the 23rd and 18th of July. In August, on the 5th and 11th. Interestingly, on the 11th, there was also a 9010 operated by the 762 that came in the previous day never left - presumably 729 on the 10th was cancelled and they needed to run the extra segment the following day. FlightMemory also has someone doing a 9010 MUC-PHL in 2008, so it seems this is a generic IRROPs flight number of some kind.

I'm thinking the 752 is more likely at this point. I don't know whether they scheduled it on certain days or they would use it as a last-minute substitute when the load was light. But 5 data points across 2 months suggests that one date we started looking for isn't as much of an anomaly as it might have first appeared.



There are definitely gaps and other issues with the data, so it's possible. Just odd that it's only that one flight, and both the outbound and return, so was worth checking. Unfortunately that one might just be missing.
Again, thank you to all for the input here. I really appreciate everybody's efforts in tracking down some of these flights. I cross-checked the BTS T-100 report that shows monthly arrivals/departures and aircraft used on a given route. It shows USAir used the 757 3 times in July, and a 767 25 times. The three times is consistent with the 18th, 23rd, and 28th you're seeing on lhr-lgw, so it fits. Combine this with @fakepcy showing the arrival gate of US729 matches departure gate for US776 to SNN with the same N938UW reg and seems highly probable this is the reg after all.

@fakepcy some of your requests with "do not add to the list" made it on the lists 🔝
if you manage to solve them outside this forum etc please send me a list of solved or to be removed for clean up. 🙏 Thank you.
Hi @bursche99 könntest du noch meine 4 offenen Flüge aus 1995 mit auf die Liste nehmen? Ich hatte die am 22.11.2025 ins Forum gestellt (#7842) und konnte die auf der Suchliste #2 nicht finden :D

Das waren die hier:

1995-05-08 YP0158 HAM JTR 15:35 19:55 Pioneer (AEF158)
1995-05-22 YP— JTR HAM 20:45 22:55 Pioneer
1995-09-25 YP0158 HAM JTR 15:35 19:55 Pioneer (AEF158)

1996-06-11 SR0117 IAD GVA 1855 ---- B743

The one above flew a bit to much in the south (receiver was somewhere in North East US)

1996-06-11 SR0117 IAD GVA 1855 ---- B743 fakepcy HB-IGC or HB-IGD

Looking at this and Planespotters.net data, I think we can narrow this down to HB-IGC and HB-IGD? HB-IGE and HB-IGG's schedules should clash with SR117's then. HB-IGF was flying SW120 ATL-ZRH on FlightMemory. If there are other sources that can point out the remaining two's whereabouts, then it could be solved :).

1996-06-11 OS0516 IAD GVA 1855 0915 A310 fakepcy SR117

His response:

"ok, so, turns out I was totally wrong about that Swissair flight. It was not on a 747-300.
I'm not sure where I got that from
After you told me about flightmemory's feature to search other people's flights I started looking more closely into some of mine. I searched for the Swissair SR117 flight and also the IAD-GVA route and found a lot of people in 1996 logging SR117 as a flight operated by Austrian, OS516, on an A310-300, not a 747-300 (I'm not sure where I got that before).

After looking around more I found a Swissair timetable from July 1996 and sure enough it says SR117 IAD-GVA was operated by OS (Austrian Airlines)

Austrian only have 4 A310-300s at that time, and the people who logged the SR117 flights all had listed tail numbers of one of those 4 Austrian A310-300s. I feel confident now that the flight was operated by Austrian using one of OE-LAA, OE-LAB, OE-LAC, OE-LAD.

Maybe your European contact has ACARS data on Austrian Airlines flight OS516 on June 11, 1996?

the ticket was booked as SR117 but it was actually operated as OS516 on June 11, 1996 from IAD to GVA"

I forgot to mention that it has a monthly/yearly subscription, but it's worth it.

So I tried the app, and looked up a flight I was missing, it finds it but lists Tail No as "unknown", but then under "About Aircraft" it says "Aircraft details and stats are available to Pro users". I have no qualms about paying the subscription if it's useful, but I also don't want to pay only for it to tell me that it still doesn't have the information. In your experience does if it says unknown but then that more info is available, is that indicative that it actually has anything useful?

They share similar info with FlightStats, and tail numbers aren't always listed for older flights past 2015-2016 (depending on the airline). I use byAir to look up general info about an old flight such as the time, and then use other methods like ACARS or FlightAware links to find it. I don't use it directly to find a tail number.

Not all flights are listed, especially if it's by a smaller airline or a charter flight, but it should cover the major flights. I don't have anything to say about the unknown but more info is available since I got the subscription on the spot out of desperation lol. You can post your flight here for me to check, though.

they are in the master list, i did some quick spot checking on some other missing flights but they are all older and none came up so I'm guessing these two are the last ones which might be solvable without access to private databases.

ok yeah that's what I saw in the free version too, just below stats there was a box saying pro users got more info .. i guess not :)
I think the main purpose of the subscription is for the unlimited searches which is extremely useful for someone like me who searches plenty of flights, including inbound and outbound, to solve regs every day. If that is not your main goal, maybe sticking to free is fine for now. :)

Unfortunately AUA was not tracked, but I'm not surprised since the source of the North Atlantic reports was based close to Boston.

Here you can find the logs.

@SaschaX99 Is there a chance that these can be solved? They're the only ones remaining from a bulk of NH1/NH2s I solved today...
