Replace CTOT with SOBT

[Patrick1246]

ACDM is becoming increasingly important and is already widely used. We are currently using it for our FRA event.

In the context of ACDM, it does not make much sense to use CTOT. It would be more appropriate to use EOBT instead, as it better reflects the operational needs and planning processes within ACDM.

Hi Patrick,

I think it's a bit extreme to replace the CTOT field with SOBT (or some other similar term). BMAC started as a booking system for one-way events, where we use CTOTs to separate the flights.

If the system only uses SOBTs, that generally means that flights that have a booking don't have priority. Kinda beats the purpose of making a booking in the first place. I don't think systems like vIFF and vACDM can 'see' who should get priority in such cases.

The earlier mentioned systems are, as far as I'm aware not regulated / managed by BoG / Vatsim Tech at all.

If we really want to make a change, I think the following works best:

• Add in eobt in the Flight model.
• Add eobt in /api/v1/events/{event}/bookings
• For the bookings page, show the ctot first. If not available, show eobt (if available)

If this works, I'll make the changes. But again, I'm not going to replace the CTOT field
