We strive to keep /r/flying as commercial-free as possible.

r/flying is intended to be a friendly and accepting place check your ego at the door and take your snark and attitude elsewhere. See this FAQ page for more details on what’s allowed and how to make sure your post complies with this rule. A direct question in the title will suffice, otherwise you must add a comment! Further, self-promotion of social media accounts or blogs is not allowed outside of an officially designated self-promotion post.

Post something that you would like to discuss! If posting only a photo, video, or link, you must include a relevant top-level comment to start conversation.Questions and content about air travel (passenger experience, frequent flyer programs, etc.) are better suited to r/travel. Flight simulation belongs in r/flightsim. “Aviation enthusiast” content is better suited to r/aviation. r/flying is intended to be a place to discuss things like pilot training, regulations, procedures, techniques, aircraft ownership and maintenance, piloting as a career, and similar topics. Certain questions, such as 'how do I become a pilot' and the like have been asked repeatedly in the past. We also welcome the new and uninitiated to explore and learn (but please follow the rules). We are a community for discussion among pilots, students, instructors and aviation professionals. Once you have entered your Night flying manually in the Logbook, the Dashboard will indeed calculate the TOTAL Night flight time from all of your flights - as the Dashboard does with every other category/type of flying.Welcome to /r/flying. You'll need to enter the amount of Night time you want to log (per flight) manually - as you would do with any other type of hours (Cross Country, Multi-Engine etc). Neither of these downfalls are good for performance & usability. However, it is very resource-heavy and results in a much larger file size (because the file has to store every single airport latitude/longitude data). Of course, it is possible to formulate an algorithm to do this, based off your on/ff blocks times to/from different airport locations around the world. Excel Pilot Logbook WILL calculate the Total Time to be 4 hours but it will not calculate the Night portion to be 2 hours. To elaborate, it will not calculate the Night PORTION of a flight between, for example, 16:00 and 20:00 when sunset is at 18:00. Unfortunately, our Excel Pilot Logbook spreadsheet does not automatically calculate the Night PORTION of your flights (based on your Off Blocks / On Blocks times) - as some other apps can do.
