If Landing Markers are defined in the eFlightLog backend for the Aircraft Category or the Aircraft Type, the ‚Add Landing Markers‘ button is displayed in FlightAssistant step 4 – Flight, allowing the pilot/FI to save special landing types. Landing Markers set by the pilot are shown in the FlightLog form and in FlightLog PDF Copy.
Type: The Type serves as grouping tag for totals if more than one Marker Type is displayed in the Landing Markers form (e.g. MountainLandings and BellLandings)
You can add new Types for new markers. Use no spaces in the field ‚Type‘. The ‚Type‘ must contain the word ‚Landings‘ to be displayed in the Landing Markers form. You can delete existing Marker Types if you do not need them.
A special, reserved Marker Type is ‚MountainLandings‚. If you define MountainLandings, a list of all Airports marked as official mountain landing sites is shown in the Landing Markers form and the pilot can record in detail on which sites was landed.
Marker Name: The Marker Name must be individual, do not define more than one marker with the same name. If this is a Landing Marker for export to the Pilots capzlog.aero account, the Marker Name must be the same as the corresponding capzlog.aero marker name.
Marker Description: The title for the marker type which the user will see.
Min Elevation (m): Only for the marker ‚MountainLandings‘. Determines the minimum elevation for an official mountain landing site for a landing here to be counted to the marker.
Total: How to add the number of landings for the marker to the landings for the flight in FlightAssistant.
- Minimum: The number of Landings for the flight in FlightAssistant must be at least as high as the (Total) number of landings recorded for this marker type. If more marker landings are recorded, the Number of Landings in FlightAssistant is augmented accordingly.
- Exact: The number of Landings for the flight in FlightAssistant must be equal to the (Total) number of landings recorded for this marker type. If the number of marker landings is different, the Number of Landings in FlightAssistant is corrected accordingly.
- Dont add: Marker Landings have no effect on the Number of Landings in FlightAssistant.
Parent: Entries for all Landing Markers of the same Marker Type are totalized in this field, if set.
Default Is Total Landings: If checked, the value of this Landing Marker is set to the Number of Landings in FlightAssistant when opening the Landing Markers Form.
Ac Type: Optional. If no aircraft type is specified, the Marker is shown for all aircraft of this Ac Category.
Ac Category: The Marker is shown for all aircraft of the chosen category
capzlog.aero Marker: The Marker landings will be exported to capzlog.aero when exporting flights. Be sure that the Marker Name corresponds to a Marker Name used by capzlog.aero!
