Hi
Especially when flying in mountainous area (the alps), you like to follow the vally and mountain pass. You can plan this with ease with all cool City-Waypoints or even GPS-Waypoints.
But when it comes to a flightplan, I prefere to have a more clean sheet.
Let me do an example: Flight from LSMM to LSPM (I know, LSMM ist military, but this is not important, it helps to understand the request)

In the PilotLog, I like to have:
LSMM - Grimsel - Nufenen - LSPM

But in SD, I prefer to see something like this:
Meiringen
N463846 E0081754
Grimsel
N463329 E0082150
Oberwald
N463025 E0082019
N462842 E0082159
Nufenen
N462845 E0082535
N462809 E0082744
N463012 E0083115
Airolo
LSPM Ambri

Feature Request:
In the context-menue (right click) of a waypoint, one should select "hide in PilotLog".

Consequence:
- In the moving map, I still can see the desired path to fly, but when generating the PilotLog, this waypoint will be skipped.
- MSA will be calculated like there is no WP
- Level will be calculated as the highest value of the section
- TrkT will be "VFR" (as no track will be correct)
- Wind will be calcualted like there is no WP
- HdgM will be "VFR"
- GS can be calculated
- Time can be calculated
So, for some fields, you can calculate the value correct, for other you have to print "VFR" or "NA"

Thanks for voting to this feature!
