Flight Deck Reports Bot

If you’re visiting this page, chances are our crawler has visited your website or network.   Please know that Flight Deck Reports provides a free service that anyone can use.

Flight Deck Reports’s bot is non-abusive because we do not make visits to any other page on your website – only your homepage and typically we visit a site’s homepage only a handful of times per month.  Furthermore, we do not scrape or cache your code or content.

Why We Visit Your
