This is great stuff (I used to work at a travel company that served up flight results). Followed your link to learn more and wanted to annotate this shot so others can do the same:
Thanks! I really should've linked to those, but didn't think about it. For the record, though, the labs.martyalchin.com link isn't actually live, it's just static HTML at the moment. I'm making a lot of improvements and working on a complete workflow, so when it goes live, it'll be really live.
I decided to take a stab at refining the search results a bit. The striped area indicates the average delay for a particular flight, so it visually eats into the layover, just as it does in real life, so you can plan accordingly.
In the real world, this would have considerably more space to fill out, but I condensed it down for the shot. And yes, that means the design is completely elastic.

Some preliminary work on a more visual way to search for flights. Lots of work yet to go, but it's looking very promising so far.
