Hello Lee,
Even though the flight shows up on flightradar24, this does not mean there may always be enough "data" to make the flight valid.
GEC8380 is also known as LH8380 which is Lufthansa Cargo, and unfortunately FK isn't picking up ths flight. At this time FlightKiosk does not play well with cargo flights. It has nothing to do with the flight in progress or not. In fact, I have found that most times only when the flight is active will FK find the flight as valid (if it finds it at all).
I hope to modify things in the future to better accomdate the cargo flights. But as it stands, for whatever reason some cargo flights show as valid, others do not. For example, if there is a UPS or FedEx flight going on at the time you read this post, it is likely that FlightKisok will show the flight as valid and allow entry.
