Search: FlightAware backbone, blob catalog, diagnostic infra
route-explorer's /api/token sits behind invisible Cloudflare Turnstile
that requires Apple's Private Access Token attestation. Third-party
iOS apps don't qualify for PAT issuance, and Linux Docker containers
can't pass it either (cross-OS fingerprint, even with patchright /
Camoufox). Migrates direct-flight search to FlightAware; multi-stop
and where-can-I-go remain via embedded SFSafariViewController.
- FlightAwareScheduleClient — scrapes route.rvt + trackpoll JSON for
real schedules without auth. T+0..2 day window. Tests against
captured HTML fixtures.
- BlobRouteClient — pulls the public Vercel blob route catalog
route-explorer's frontend reads (no auth, no Turnstile).
- DiagnosticLogger + LoggingURLSessionDelegate + DiagnosticsView —
device-shareable forensic trace. Boot header captures device, OS,
locale, UA; share-sheet export of session logs.
- TurnstileDebugView — live WKWebView gate inspector. Used to prove
the PAT-entitlement gap on a real device.
- RouteExplorerBrowserView — SFSafariViewController wrapper. Real
Safari clears Turnstile naturally; the in-app browser opens at
pre-filled search URLs. Surfaced from Search ("Open in
route-explorer") and Settings → Tools.
- RouteExplorerTokenStore + RouteExplorerSetupView — bookmarklet
capture flow (token round-tripped via flights://routeexplorer-token
URL scheme). Kept dormant for future use.
backend/ — Docker proxy attempts (Playwright, patchright, Camoufox).
All fail on Linux because Cloudflare auto-denies before the Turnstile
widget renders. Documented; kept as scaffolding for a future paid-
solver integration.
scripts/probe_flightaware.py — reference algorithm for the FA path.
scripts/probe_nodriver.py — local-Mac sanity check confirming the
gate clears with real macOS Chrome (proves the blocker is
fingerprint-level, not network-level).

generate_bts_bundle.py
|
||||
======================
|
||||
|
||||
Produces ``Flights/Resources/bts_bundle.json`` plus a companion
|
||||
``Flights/Resources/bts_bundle_meta.json`` — both are read at runtime by
|
||||
``BTSDataStore`` (Swift) so the in-app load-factor predictor and on-time
|
||||
sparkline ride on REAL Department of Transportation / Bureau of
|
||||
Transportation Statistics data.
|
||||
|
||||
We pull two BTS tables for a single calendar month:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Airline On-Time Performance Data** (Reporting Carrier On-Time
|
||||
Performance, table ID 236, downloaded as a flat monthly PREZIP file)
|
||||
https://transtats.bts.gov/PREZIP/On_Time_Reporting_Carrier_On_Time_Performance_1987_present_<YEAR>_<MONTH>.zip
|
||||
|
||||
Yields per-(carrier, flight number, origin, dest):
|
||||
- totalFlights = number of rows (operated departures)
|
||||
- onTimePct = fraction with ArrDelay <= 15 min
|
||||
- avgDelayMin = mean(ArrDelay) for non-negative arrivals
|
||||
- cancelledPct = fraction of scheduled flights cancelled
|
||||
|
||||
2. **T-100 Domestic Segment (U.S. Carriers)** (table ID 311)
|
||||
Pulled via the ASP.NET form at
|
||||
https://transtats.bts.gov/DL_SelectFields.aspx?gnoyr_VQ=FIM
|
||||
with cboYear / cboPeriod set to the target month. Fields requested:
|
||||
DEPARTURES_PERFORMED, SEATS, PASSENGERS, UNIQUE_CARRIER, ORIGIN, DEST.
|
||||
|
||||
Yields per-(carrier, origin, dest):
|
||||
- avgLoadFactor = sum(PASSENGERS) / sum(SEATS)
|
||||
- avgSeats = sum(SEATS) / sum(DEPARTURES_PERFORMED)
|
||||
(T-100 does not break out by flight number, so every record sharing
|
||||
that triple inherits the route-level load factor + seat count.)
|
||||
|
||||
Output schema (top-level dict):
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
"WN_61_DAL_HOU": {
|
||||
"totalFlights": 28,
|

"onTimePct": 0.857,

Reference implementation of the FlightAware-based route+schedule lookup.
|
||||
This is the canonical algorithm the Swift port (FlightAwareScheduleClient)
|
||||
mirrors. No auth, no Turnstile, no headless browser — two plain GETs per
|
||||
search, both hitting open FlightAware web pages.
|
||||
|
||||
Pipeline for ("DFW", "AMS", 2026-06-06):
|
||||
1. Resolve dep_icao = "KDFW", arr_icao = "EHAM" (deterministic for US,
|
||||
curated table for international hubs).
|
||||
2. GET https://flightaware.com/analysis/route.rvt?origin=KDFW&destination=EHAM
|
||||
and parse the "Itemized List" table → distinct flight idents
|
||||
(e.g. "AAL220").
|
||||
3. For each ident, GET https://flightaware.com/live/flight/<ident> and
|
||||
extract the embedded `trackpollBootstrap` JSON via a brace-balanced
|
||||
scan over the script body.
|
||||
4. From trackpollBootstrap.flights[*].activityLog.flights, project
|
||||
each scheduled leg whose gateDepartureTimes.scheduled falls on the
|
||||
requested local-departure date.
|
||||
5. Emit (flightNumber, aircraft, dep_utc, arr_utc, dep_tz, arr_tz,
|
||||
dep_gate, dep_terminal, arr_gate, arr_terminal, duration_min).
