Hi,

When I use SkyDemon on my desktop to plan a flight and I open the airfield information page that handily displays the Twilight Start, Sunrise, Sunset, and Twilight End times, these seem to be based on today rather than on the date of my flight (as specified for "Take-Off").

That rarely makes sense to me and when I'm planning such a flight for a trip in the future and want to know how late in the afternoon I can savely fly, this requires me to find a random website with the Sunset/Twilight information and that's always a bit of a pain.

What's the advantage of showing those times based on today rather than the planned date of the flight?

Thanks and best regards

Patrick
