Hi,
updated SERA.4005(a) now requires a ballistic parachute recovery system to be included as a remark in section 19 in the ICAO flight plan. Quote EASA guidance and acceptable means of compliance docs:
---
GM1 SERA.4005(a)(14) Contents of a flight plan
ED Decision 2024/007/R
BALLISTIC PARACHUTE RECOVERY SYSTEM
The information on ballistic parachute recovery systems may be included in the field for remarks under Item 19 of the ICAO model flight plan, as specified in Appendix 6 ‘COMPLETION OF A FLIGHT PLAN’ to the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 923/2012.
[applicable from 1 May 2025 – ED Decision 2024/007/R]

I have not found a way to include this with the aircraft profile, to get it automatically added when selecting an aircraft equipped with such system. Ideally we would get a check box similar to the avionics equipment options somewhere in the emergency equipment section of the aircraft profile which then triggers the remark to be added in section 19.
Thanks for your kind consideration.

Hi, I would also appreciate such an update to Skydemon, that I could permantly specify defaults for the regular Remark section and the Survival remarks.
For the new SERA requirement for the BRS, at least German AIS portal for flight plan filing has recently updated their interface to provide a checkbox for availability of a BRS. This leads to a field 19 entry of text "N/BALLISTIC PARACHUTE RECOVERY SYSTEM". I would love to see this configurable in the survival equipment configuration of the aircraft configuration.
Plus, I would love to add the same string for every flight in the field 18 like "RMK/WEB BROWSER LIVE TRACKING xxx.ADL.FLIGHTS" as the manufacturer of our Iridium satellite receiver suggests to add this data for SAR purposes. It provides satellite location via data link and never changes by flight. So configuring this as part of the aircraft configuration would be highly appreciable.
