Morning,
I was just planning a flight when two separate but related ideas occurred to me. First, most flights I make are "out and back" which I create as a single flight and then use the "reverse" feature for the second flight. This doesn't allow me to specify two different alternates, however, and I often forget to change the estimated take-off time for the second flight. Would it be possible to have an option whereby a route automatically included a reverse, with a different alternate and take-off time, and to automatically print both PLOGs from a single route?
The second idea is to attach a small "data block" to each turning point on the printed chart showing the heading and estimate duration of each leg as it starts. Again, having both the outbound and return information shown on a single chart would be great, maybe with an arrow to show which figures relate to which flight. Taking this idea further, displaying a small data block for each airfield along the route giving their radio frequencies would be icing on the Christmas cake.
Happy Christmas!
