Synchronize flight plan with simulator data
If your aircraft model (the one you fly) is known in the DB AND the flight plan was NOT sent yet, then your flight plan plan will be automatically updated (ICAO, callsign) whenever you change your aircraft in the simulator.
If you wish to override your flight plan data with the simulator data regardless of the state, you can use the "circle" icon next to the callsign.
Altitude popup, metric altitudes
You can use the altitude dialog to enter metric altitudes or get help with the altitude entry
Flight plan numbering
The swift numbering is based on the FAA flight plan. Aircraft/equipment (3) is split into 2 fields (swift), remarks (11) are at the bottom.
Remember remarks
As it can be useful to reuse recently sent remarks you can now use the remarks history. Just click the remarks buttons to fill in the remarks fields.
Flight plan of other Aircraft
You can see the flight plan of other aircraft from the aircraft views context menu.
