Hello,
We plan to expand our multi-sector planning functionality in future versions of SkyDemon. If you think that making the PLOG cleverer - so it has knowledge of all sectors in your planned route - is a good place for us to start, here is a good place to post. How do you think it should work?

Should there be a simple setting to toggle between display of the selected sector or all sectors in some sort of combined view? What should this view look like?

What should happen to the radio frequency section in a multi-sector PLOG? It doesn't really make sense to display it.

The PLOG is what I refer to while in the air on a particular flight. I wouldn't expect that different flights than the one I'm currently on should be displayed there.

Hi Tim,
I support Chris here, as in flight, I would best prefer the current content and view.

A different element is the 'print centre' as discussed in another thread, simply printing out the PLOGs of the legs, here a selection box "witch leg or all legs to print" would be a good start, but again the print itself, would be a leg is a flight, just as would be the flight plan.

Cheers

To clarify, I don't think we would change anything about the in-flight PLOG (which will be updated soon anyway with more functionality).

I think that implementing a global view of all the sectors will be useful, and I agree that the radio frequencies information will not be necessary when you look at all the sectors.

What I am missing sorely are cumulative columns for distance, time and fuel used. These are the ones I used to determine when to stop for a break. And up til now I have to add them in my head!
