Flight Plan Supplementary details not remembered when leaving flight plan submit screen

I've found that when submitting a flight plan, I have to go to the supplementary page and enter details of the dingy + capacity + colour.
It's also required to enter a mobile phone number for crew contact that gets copied into the remarks field.

The problem is that when moving away from the flight plan submit pop-up menu, these details are lost and have to be re-entered every time. So if you are about to submit the flight plan, and just wanting to give everything a second double-check, you can easily overlook these two fields and omit them.

Not happened to me, but I've come across a couple of others who have had to resubmit the flight plan completely due to this omission.

Is there any way of retaining this standard information - often dingyes are associated with specific aircraft and perhaps this could be added to the aircraft details and copied in?

Other than that, SD really makes flight plan submission almost trivial (which is as it should be).

Am I missing something, or should i make this a feature request?

Yes, it can be changed. You'll find the pilot mentioned in both the supplementary information and in the remarks field (item 18). Both fields are editable.
