Well, lets start off by saying that your kACARS is the best. It just works right out of the blocks. Thank you very much!!

I was wondering about the possibility of the actual departure time being read from the sim and not from the system. Most of the flight we fly are normal daytime flights, but are flown in the evenings, or wee hours of the morning, but we set the departure time to a few minutes before the scheduled time to depart, this way we can monitor if the pilot did fly the flight at the correct times or not.

Example of a flight that takes place at 15:00 UTC teh sim time was set for 14:50 UTC but the log shows as follows

[21:55] - Cessna Skyhawk 172SP Paint4

[21:55] - Flight Number OCC014

[21:55] - Departure FAPS

Again thanks for a brilliant products. Whole heartedly supported by orrenCharters (Hopefully soon we will purchase your custom kACARS as well

I think it should be server side as then all PIREPs that come in would follow the same format. It would in theory be easier for the management of the VA that way.

Perhaps though you could develop both and allow each VA to choose which one they implement.

Sounds great,

The primary thing for me, is the ability to check to see if the pilot adhered to the flying times stipulated on the schedule list. I agree with TheBulk Server side will keep the uniformity of all the pireps.

Jeff thanks so much

:smiley: Thanks again

Yes, please add this. I did not realize it logged system time, instead of FS time.

Has this been added as an option?

Where is that Jeff? Is it something I can change? I have the custom paid version. Thnaks.
