Record your flights online with FlightMemory

by mark.avey on September 13, 2007

FlightMemory is a relatively new web site that “enables you to easily keep track of where you have flown and then easily produce maps showing your flight routes.”

Although the site is primarily aimed at “real life” flyers, it also seems the perfect way to record your own simulated flights. You can even order a full size high quality poster showing your trips. This is a great idea and I shall certainly be taking advantage of this free service.

Here’s the full press release:

FlightMemory.com provides a new way for travelers to maintain a statistical database of their flight activity and visualize their flight paths on highly customized maps

New York City (May 21, 2007) - FlightMemory.com today announced the formal launch of an English language version of FlugStatistik.de, the popular German flight tracking and mapping tool. The website allows users to track their flight activity and graphically depict their trips on maps of the world to visualize their journeys. From the occasional traveler to the avid flyer, FlightMemory generates a flight activity logbook in real time.

FlightMemory.com displays each user’s key statistics such as total distance flown and approximates total air time. The website also provides users with total mileage flown in relation to circumnavigations of the earth and distances to the moon and even the sun. “FlightMemory is great fun for frequent flyers, flight crews, recreational pilots and aviation enthusiasts” said Tom Botts, FlightMemory’s US partner. “We are already keeping track of our newborn daughter’s flights.”

Consumers may also order customized full-color satellite imagery maps of the world with their flight paths superimposed. Maps are available in a number of sizes and designs and make ideal conversation pieces for frequent flyers.

“We are excited to bring this product to market in English” said Robert Heret, General Manager of FlugStatistik.de. “We have received almost daily requests for an English site from our 15,000+ registered users and are excited to make this request a reality.”

Statistics and maps aggregating all FlightMemory user data from the previous day may be found at the yesterday map. Sample custom posters may be found at here.
