I see that most of them doesn't have changed. So yes, it will be a good idea to have, in the w/B section : - a field to save the date of the airplane document - a field to save the date of the last cross check between Sd and W/B airplane sheet. I have replied to this once already today but for some reason it was flagged as spam. Have you considered just copying the existing aircraft profile to create a new one? This can then be updated with the new values and saved with a name including the date/version number. I have two weighings for my aircraft, one with the rear seat in place, and one without. I therefore have two sets of profiles, each with a number of individual dated profiles reflecting each time there has been a relevant equipment change that resulted in a change to the W&B.

I have two different Weighings for my aircraft, one with the rear seat taken out, and one with it in place. I have two sets of aircraft profiles, the latest dated ones are coped and renamed with the latest date every time an equipment modification changes the W&B. You effectively have an audit trail of the changes then as well.

Group: Forum Members Posts: 56, Visits: 753	Hello, What about having a field to put the date of the weighing that has been punched in the Empty weight field of the weight and balance section? And also the empty weight in the envelope diagramme could perhapsper automatically updated with the value that is punched in the empty weight field? Thanks for this great app. Cheers, Alexis
