Hi,
updated SERA.4005(a) now requires a ballistic parachute recovery system to be included as a remark in section 19 in the ICAO flight plan. Quote EASA guidance and acceptable means of compliance docs:

GM1 SERA.4005(a)(14) Contents of a flight plan
ED Decision 2024/007/R
BALLISTIC PARACHUTE RECOVERY SYSTEM
The information on ballistic parachute recovery systems may be included in the field for remarks under Item 19 of the ICAO model flight plan, as specified in Appendix 6 ‘COMPLETION OF A FLIGHT PLAN’ to the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 923/2012.
[applicable from 1 May 2025 – ED Decision 2024/007/R]

I have not found a way to include this with the aircraft profile, to get it automatically added when selecting an aircraft equipped with such system. Ideally we would get a check box similar to the avionics equipment options somewhere in the emergency equipment section of the aircraft profile which then triggers the remark to be added in section 19.
Thanks for your kind consideration.
