All commands can be given using the view's menu or context menu. A new flight can be created using the the tool bar button , and an existing flight can be edited using the button or by double clicking a flight in the table. Using the function to create a new similar flight – button – 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 corresponding preferences.

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.

The most recent flight is hown at the end of the list.Using the toolbar or the menu you can sort the flights such that the most recent flight is hown at the top of the list.
