The view displays all airfields in a table showing the ICAO registration, the name and possibly the coordinates of the airfield. Airfields can be created, edited and deleted from this view.
Using the context menu or the menu the view can be limited to aifields having an ICAO registration or to sort the airfields by name (default sorting is by ICAO registration).
The new airfield wizard is opened from the main window's menu
Skylog/New.../Airfield or the tool bar
,
or the view's the menu or context menu, provided no airfield is
selected (otherwise the wizard is opened to edit the selected
airfield). The wizard has only one page; you can enter the ICAO
registration, the name and possibly the position of the airfield. The
position resp. coordinates are optional; to accept the entered
coordinates check the check box “Accept entered position”. Name
or ICAO registration are mandatory (one of them). If the ICAO
registration is entered it must be unique; if the ICAO registration
is missing the name must be unique.
The Editor for airfields is opened like the new airfield wizard but an airfield must be selected. Alternatively you can double click an airfield. The name can only be edited if the airfield has an ICAO registration. Otherwise only the position can be edited. To remove the coordinates from the airfield uncheck the check box.
Using the context menu or menu the selected airfields can be deleted if they are not referenced by a person (home base) or a flight log. After proceeding a safety dialog Skylog checks if the airfield can be deleted. If some of them cannot be deleted, an error messages are displayed showing which person resp. flight logs reference the airfield, you tried to delete. Those airfields are not deleted.
