Dynamic NavLog Manual

The app was tested in real life by a PPL pilot.
The app was designed for VFR conditions.
The app will always save the current state and will recover in case of device unexpected restart or app crash.
The app can reliably work in the background (when the device's screen is off) only if necessary permissions to the GPS are granted in the Android system.
All times in the app are in format h:mm'ss". Seconds are not displayed if the minutes are more than 10.

To create a flight plan select Menu->New flight plan.
To manage flight plans go to Menu->Flight plans.
In order to add an airplane to the flight plan it must first be added to the airplane list.
To open a flight plan click its name on the list.
On the Settings page fill blank fields and choose an airplane.

Use the map to create a flight plan route.
First click on the map to create the takeoff position.
Click on the map to create a waypoint.
Click on a marker to edit a waypoint or a radial point.
Press-and-hold (long-click) on the map to create a radial.
Press-and-hold on a marker to move it to a new position.
To change waypoints order go to Navigation Log page and press-and-hold on a row that you want to move. Then move it across the table to desired position.

When the flight plan is ready click on the OFF-BLOCK button. The block time will start to count.
If T/O, LND and WPT detection is on, the app will continue to work in the background. The flight stages: Takeoff, Waypoint arrival and Landing, will be automatically detected.
If T/O, LND and WPT detection is off, you will have to manually advance the NavLog by using the buttons BACK, NEXT and LANDING. The buttons will appear on the Flight display and Map pages.
At the end of the flight click the ON-BLOCK button to stop the flight plan.

To open or start the flight plan use the button OFF-BLOCK.
The Takeoff will be detected if the speed exceeds the threshold that is set in the Options.
Waypoints are detected when an airplane gets close to the waypoint (marked as a circle on the map) and the distance from the waypoint starts to increase. The circle radius can be set in the Options.
When an airplane enters the circle around a waypoint, on the top navigation bar on the map page the Next HDG will be displayed until a new waypoint is active.
Landing will be detected if an airplane's position is inside the last circle and the speed decreases below the threshold set in the options.
To close the flight plan use the button ON-BLOCK.

Flight Display Items

[left] Time elapsed since the last waypoint.
[center] Estimated time enroute to the current waypoint. This is calculated with or without GPS data.

GPS indicator - Green if GPS signal is present or red otherwise.
[center] Current ground speed from the GPS or calculated.
[right] Difference in the speed compared to the speed calculated in the navigation log. If the difference is significant, check the TAS and wind conditions on the Setting page.

[center] Estimated time of arrival to the last waypoint.
[right] Difference between calculated and actual ETA. A positive number means that the flight will take longer than the time estimated at the beginning of the flight.

The app also has many other features not described on this page.
