If you are logged-in under the holding, this field shows which station a flight is assigned to. Please note that data records cannot be created or edited if you are logged-in under the holding!

Upon leaving the date field, the entered numbers are sorted automatically and non-flight days are marked by a blank.

• SVC:

Service type code

• ORD:

"Original Date" is an indicator for the original plan date of a flight. As a flight planning date always refers to the date when the flight actually started, it happens that the arrival at its destination is a day or two later. In order to have an unambiguous reference between the start and actual date, this field can be used to enter a numerical value (0, -1, -2) for calculating the original date.

Example: A flight with an arrival date of Jan 1^st and an ORD marker of "-2" left its origin on Dec 30^th.

• ROT-FLN:

Arrival and departure of an individual aircraft can be linked to a so-called "rotation" in order to keep track of the aircraft's stay on the airport. This function is described in chapter Chaining of arrivals and departures. After a flight has been "chained" the flight number of the related arrival/departure is listed in this field.

• ROUTING:

Only available in the Search panel. It can be used to search for flights, which have the airport entered as search criteria in their route (OD1-3). This is done by entering the international 3-letter code of the desired airport. Multiple filters can be set by entering more than one code, separating each code with a blank.
