It requires additional steps during the planning, adds more complexity to the pilot log than I think is necessary, and doesn't help for my intended purpose (when looking at the pilot log alone I still cannot see where to initiate the altitude change since these additional waypoints do not carry the information whether they are the BOC/TOC/TOD/BOD). Thanks, anyway, for your hint. Edited 6/13/2021 11:39:20 AM by miaelch

When changing the cruise altitude at waypoints, Skydemon offers the possibility to select whether the altitude change should be executed before or after the waypoint; the virtual radar view is adapted accordingly. The pilot log, however, does not show this information. I would appreciate if the information whether an altitude change should be initiated either before or at a waypoint would be included into the pilot log. A simple possibility to do so would be to write TOC/BOC/TOD/BOD* behind waypoints where the altitude is changed. This would not introduce new waypoints and legs into the pilot log (there was already some discussion about adding TOC/BOD waypoints to the flight log automatically). Kind regards Michael * In addition to TOC/BOC/TOD/BOD, two additional notations would ne necessary for waypoints that are passed while climbing or descending. Such situations could arise when there is only a short distance between waypoints with altitude changes. - Maybe pictograms would be a better choice. Edited 6/13/2021 10:59:46 AM by miaelch
