This is a very minor detail but would it be possible to set up the home page so that the cursor is already waiting in the “Flight/Tail #” box please? When you’re a big user like me it becomes a bit of a chore to be constantly moving the mouse about to manually put the cursor there. Like I say, very minor detail but would be really useful. I await my flaming for laziness … 😆 ---

Or to have the cursor in the Login box when the page appears. For what I pay for this service, it’s the least they could do! 😉 ---

If you use Firefox you could create a QuickSearch for that box, so you can type something like “f BOE123” in the address bar and it will take you to [flightaware.com/live/flight/BOE123](http://flightaware.com/live/flight/BOE123) ---

It’s not something they did for Firefox. am withholding comments re which is the better browser… ---

Hitting tab once or twice will probably get you there too. ---

> [@TimCoble](#): > > hitting the tab twice is all I need to do to get there…but I am two-handed surfer, so it doesn’t slow me much… There’s a lot of people out there in the world - MANY of them here in my own office - who think the only way to navigate on a computer is via a mouse. It would behoove those who use a mouse exclusively to actually do some research on keyboard shortcuts. It will save you time and make you more efficient using the computer. Like Tim, I use th keyboard just as much as I do the mouse. ---
