Alternate arrival airport. Common ICD. FF002 v3 Flight Information REQUEST Customer ID. This field is used to identify the customer making the request. Source of the aircraft location data. Example: US FAA ASDI feed, dead-reckoning, or other. Indicates the priority assigned to the corresopnding data source. The Flight Following service uses this priority to retrieve position information when a request contains multiple data sources. Type of request. This field may be used by the Flight Following product to understand how much information to provide within the response. Proving all information for every request can result in an overload of the interface depending on the filter requested. basic = basic data such as callsign, position, time, course, and lat, long. extended = all basic data plus additional flight data (TBD) advanced = all basic data plus flight data such as pod, poa, etd, eta, aircraft, altitude, speed, and waypoint data. full = basic, advanced, plus all other flight information. Coordination between the requesting and responding products may be required. The date/time of the last update. If this is used, the Flight Following product will only provide information on flights that have changed since this time. Criteria that specifies only diverted flights or only flights that are not diverted. If the value is True then this specifies diverted flights only. If the value is False then this specifies only flights that are not diverted. If the Diverted element is not present then both diverted and non-diverted flights will exist. Latitude and Longitude points that form a polygon. Common ICD. Include all flights that are late by the duration specified. Include all flights that are early by the duration specified. Selects flights that match the flight status. all = select all flights; in-flight = flights enroute; arrived = completed flights; planned = flights not yet departed. FF002 v3 Flight Information RESPONSE Used when a successful flight plan is provided. Used only if an unsuccessful flight information request error is returned. Common ICD.
