Suggestion Touch and go, stop and go

During Flight Instruction I am making touch and go’s, but also stop and go’s. As these are very hard to ‘count’ via several apps I tested (as they often register your flight as ended) I would like to be able to manually start and end a flight. This way I end up with correct logbook times and only one breadcrumb file (from which I can filter the touch and go’s count if necessary).

Hi Aloys,

Have you tried already how EV4 behaves in these cases? Your scenario is exactly why we started using the breadcrumbs to extract logbook entries from instead of "stupidly" only monitor the plane speed. 

Its for example quite easy to add (maybe that is already, I don't know) a condition that a takeoff is only considered a new flight it its at least 10 minutes after the last landing. 

For FI's the option menu->system->[Location updates even when app in background] (turn it on) together with [location updates only when in flightmode] (turn it off, so EV4 tries to record as much as possible in the daily breadcrumb) is a nice experiment maybe.

 

At the end of the day (or and convenient moments during the day) simply select the daily breadcrumb in the menu-> [Flightlog maintenance] ->Daily breadcrumbs and have EV4 [Extract logbook entries] from it. If you collect a few daily breadcrumbs the upcoming time we can try to improve this logbook creating.
