Flightspan™ Ops Release Notes 4.2.4

New Features

  • Enhanced the Edibility of Logbook Approaches and Flight Time. IMC approach types can now be updated and approaches can be recorded based on type. All logbook time is now recorded individually for each crew member. Block out and block in times are required to be entered before a user can edit logbook time.
  • Added ability to sort and manipulate aircraft type removable equipment by categories. Users can move entire category of equipment on/off the flight leg with one button if desired.
  • Added ability to associate payment types with specific Debit and Credit Accounts and export a CSV file and reports associated with processing those transactions from Debit to Credit.
  • Added ability to set Captions for Runway/LZ Chart Additional Images

Enhancements

  • Renamed the printed Condensed Manifest to Destination Manifest. Added a new printed manifest called Condensed Manifest which contains signature lines for flight crew and loading crew.
  • Updated the Format of Aircraft/Pilot Availability on Scheduling Calendar. The blue number on the left indicates the scheduled and flown time. The green number on the right indicate the number of minutes before maintenance or fatigue rule exceedance.
  • All aircraft future maintenance event types will now be displayed on the aircraft availability hover details. Currently active events will be displayed as well.
  • Maintenance Events now allow a blank target start date on new events. This will limit the full functionality of the maintenance events on the schedule, but prevents bad data. It is recommended that you add an estimated start date as soon as possible to future maintenance events.
  • Added a company setting to ignore “Rate Aircraft Income Accounts” and use only the Rate’s Deposit Account when processing financial exports.
  • Added Departure and Destination fields to the new Flight Request form in the FSO Dashboard. This will prevent newly created flight requests from lacking necessary leg data.
  • Added a company setting to allow organizations to reduce duty time by break period value.
  • Changed the wording on the flight request additional leg button to clarify that it is for the same day.
  • Added a break between each additional image in the PDF Runway/LZ charts in order to prevent images from being split across multiple pages
  • Applied Average Overage Time Percentage to scheduled flight time in the Schedule Export Report
  • Added Default Billing Currency for Each Cash Payment Type and set up automatic switching to that currency when changing payment type on the payment form.
  • Added a Rates Sheet by Distance Report as well as a Rate Sheet by Waypoint Report that calculate many options for one Rate.
