– a new flight is created from the selected flight; the date of
flight is accepted only if it is not before the date of the pilot's
last flight. If special times are accepted is determined by the

Flights can be moved into a neighbouring flight log:
.
Skylog can compute the target flight log in most cases. Otherwise
select the target log in the move flights wizard. Also the flights to
be moved can be reviewed in the wizard. Only if a set of
consecutively numbered flights are checked these can be moved into a
neighbouring flight log. Only flights from the beginning or end of a
flight log can be moved. Moving flights does not change the order of
the flights albeit they are contained in another flight log. Two
flights from the end of a flight log can be moved to the beginning of
the next flight log for example.
How to record a new flight is explained in a separate manual page. Editing works analogous.
