Hello SkyDemon team, dear Tim, We are very pleased with the option to file a flightplan with SkyDemon. (Credits). This is really great to use. Our suggestion is to implement an option that we can use SkyDemon also to close our flightplan after landing. When we land at an uncontrolled airport or private airport we have to search for the telephone number to call for closing our flightplan. We hope you will think about this idea. Kind regards.

You have always been able to close a flightplan using SkyDemon, so I really don't understand the question. The close option is in the same place as the cancel and delay options, in our website, linked to from the email you're sent whenever you file a flightplan.

Tim,
I'm pretty sure not having been able to close my one and only FPL I've ever filed thru SD. I only had the options to DLA and CNL the FPL once filed. But that's about a year ago, maybe the options have been completed.
Thanks for that. Keep up the good work!
Eric

Hello Tim,Thanks for your reply. I think it is a great value that your users think with you to improve your great software so please be aware about that.Just like you ask your users on Facebook I think.The idea came from me and my friend and we just didn't see this option. Perhaps we are not using all the options enough or it's not documented enough?We are using SD on our android phones.I'm going to check this and will respond to you.

Hello Tim,It is in the received email link indeed. What I ment is closing the flightplan directly with the (android)phone (note 2/3) on the same and easy way as creating and filing the flightplan Tim. A one touch button after landing. The flightplan info is still available so it should be possible I think.

Hi Tim. The options available are Delay / Cancel / View. There is no Close function showing, either within the app or on the web. Tks, Mark.

You'll get a Close option if the flightplan can be closed (i.e. you have just arrived at your destination).

+xYou'll get a Close option if the flightplan can be closed (i.e. you have just arrived at your destination). Just to clarify: Does this only work if arrived at the planned destination or alternate(s), or also if I diverted to another field?

I think SkyDemon only offers the option to send a message saying you have arrived at your original planned destination. If you have diverted, you'll need to use another method to advise everyone.

I understand. But why this limitation? As a suggestion: The ARR-Message just needs to transmit the Code of the actual airport in addition.

Indeed. It's just that almost nobody has asked us for this feature over the years, so we have never written it.

After editing my route and selecting my aircraft from my aircraft library in SkyDemon, I filed a flightplan. However, in the confirmation email I received from Skydemon, the callsign listed was that of a different aircraft from my library. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Your Question is not related to the topic.
