title: Aero airports History API
version: 4.17.1
description: '# Introduction
AeroAPI is a simple, query-based API that gives software developers access
to a variety of FlightAware''s flight data. Users can obtain current or
historical data. AeroAPI is a RESTful API delivering accurate and
actionable aviation data. With the introduction of Foresight™, customers
have access to the data that powers over half of the predictive airline
ETAs in the US.
## Categories
AeroAPI is divided into several categories to make things easier to
discover.
- Flights: Summary information, planned routes, positions and more
- Foresight: Flight positions enhanced with FlightAware Foresight™
- Airports: Airport information and FIDS style resources
- Operators: Operator information and fleet activity resources
- Alerts: Configure flight alerts and delivery destinations
- History: Historical flight access for various endpoints
- Miscellaneous: Flight disruption, future schedule information, and aircraft owner information
## Development Tools
AeroAPI is defined using the OpenAPI Spec 3.0, which means it can be easily
imported into tools like Postman. To get started try importing the API
specification using
[Postman''s instructions](https://learning.postman.com/docs/integrations/available-integrations/working-with-openAPI/).
Once imported as a collection only the "Value" field under the collection''s
Authorization tab needs to be populated and saved before making calls.
The AeroAPI OpenAPI specification is located at:\
https://flightaware.com/commercial/aeroapi/resources/aeroapi-openapi.yml
Our [open source AeroApps project](/aeroapi/portal/resources)
provides a small collection of services and sample applications to help
you get started.
The Flight Information Display System (FIDS) AeroApp is an example of a
multi-tier application using multiple languages and Docker containers.
It demonstrates connectivity, data caching, flight presentation, and leveraging flight maps.
The Alerts AeroApp demonstrates the use of AeroAPI to set, edit, and
receive alerts in a sample application with a Dockerized Python backend
and a React frontend.
Our AeroAPI push notification [testing interface](/commercial/aeroapi/send.rvt)
provides a quick and easy way to test the delivery of customized alerts via AeroAPI push.

description: 'Returns historical flight info status summary for a registration, ident,

flight is returned, unless the flight has been diverted in which case
both the original flight and any diversions will be returned with a
duplicate fa_flight_id. If a registraion or ident is specified then a
start_date and end_date must be specified. The span between start_date
and end_date can be up to 7 days. No more than 40 pages may be requested
at once. Data is available from now back to 2011-01-01 00:00:00 UTC.
