Hi there!

I have an idea/request for the current API documentation - would it be possible to list example JSON (for REST) and XML (for WSDL/SOAP) results for each API call? This would help a lot in testing and initial development without having to make the API call.

For my immediate use, is there an example JSON payload for FlightInfoEx?

Thanks!
