Since SkyDemon will not implement a "remember to close flight plan" switch/popup, this option could be used.

Group: Forum Members Posts: 13, Visits: 28	I have already asked for this one times ago. ‌‌In France, for example, you have a huge number of Danger Areas or Restricted Areas that need a prior radio contact with the Military zone manager (using a specific frequency, of course) if you want to transit. ‌ IMHO, the best way to implement it is to add a "comment" field to the waypoint dialog. The comment should be displayed when hitting the waypoint and printed in the PLOG (and saved with the flightplan of course). ‌

Group: Forum Members Posts: 63, Visits: 157	+1 Nice‌ Idea. ‌ ‌ There could be two kinds of trigger points: waypoints on the route and user defined triggerpoints that are independent from an active route. There should be also the possibility to define the trigger radius together with the message.
