Logging into FlightSpan™
When you first open FlightSpan™ on the EFB, it will open to the End User License Agreement (EULA) page. Tap Yes to accept.
Log in using your company name and password.
Allow FlightSpan™ to use your position. This is especially important if your aircraft are not equipped with v2 trackers.
Later you will be asked if you want to allow FlightSpan™ to use your location even when you are not using the app. Change to Always Allow so that FlightSpan™ can continue to function in the background while you are using other apps.
FlightSpan™ Ops will synchronize with FlightSpan™, downloading all of your company data. When sync is complete, tap Done.
FlightSpan™ initially opens in ScratchPad. ScratchPad is designed to be a place where you can create and explore using flights that will not be flown. It’s a great place to learn FlightSpan™ on your company’s version of FlightSpan™. ScratchPad Mode will be displayed at the top, and the app has a yellow border so you know you aren’t working in a real flight.
Header Bar
The top bar on each page (just below the iPad status icons) shows:
- Trip Manifest status (after landing, the cooldown timer will be displayed)
- Phase of flight
- The sync button, which will refresh all data from FlightSpan™ Ops
- The Settings button and version number
- v2Track connection status
App Navigation
Navigate through the major sections of FlightSpan™ using the tabs at the top of the screen. The tabs are arranged in a logical progression of the flight, beginning with the Daily Flight Record (DFR) at the left. Some tabs have sub-tabs to select from.
