Abelbeck Aviation Checklist got another feature: it now supports multiple synchronised sessions.

Based on server-sent events, changes in one session are committed to all other sessions of a user. In the future I can do the checklists on my smartphone fixed to my thigh, while the tablet nearby shows my flight planning. And both reflect the current state.

Now I can again tend to the flight recorder part of my app.

Success! I converted the checklist timekeeping (block off, block on, departure, arrival) from minutes after midnight to minutes since the Epoch.

It was one AM, I should've called it a night.

But VLC was still playing some Ärzte songs, and I remembered this one lyrics hardcopy somewhere in the bookshelf...

In the end, I played my old six-string till two.

Ok, now better off to sleep!

Osterausflug zum Deutschen Panzermuseum. 👍

Das letzte Mal war ich 2010 mit Rolf Hilmes (RIP!) dort.

@DasPanzermuseum@mastodon.world : anscheinend war der Osterhase da und hat was beim Leo-Schnittmodell hinterlassen.

Fascinating, my 14yo ebook reader is still functioning perfectly! Even after years of hibernation among paper books. 🙂

New features added to the Abelbeck Aviation Checklist application:

+ pilot logbook: flight log, licences, ratings, documents
+ checklist event logging
+ geolocation logging, automatically triggered when entering the engine startup section, automatically suspended when completing the engine shutdown section
+ user-triggered flight recording with automatic logbook entry generation based on the checklist event log

Next on: visualisation of recorded flights, most likely based on MapLibre GL JS.

Friesland offered good weather conditions today.

The other side of the Jade bight was covered in clouds.

My reservation time frame offered me a trip along Wangerooge, Spiekeroog, Langeoog and back. 🙂

Just one traffic circuit, due to parts of it getting cloudy. 🙄

Thought cloud base was 1400 ft, but it dropped to 700 ft of a sudden.

No sense risking the aircraft.

Another rather spontaneous after-work flight Rating-relevant time: block 8:21, PIC 5:26. Crawling back to normal after an unusual long winter break. 💪 Due to decreasing visibility I only made it to the coast and Wangerooge. Since Spiekeroog was barely visible, I turned around. Spiraling upwards I could peek above the clouds at 5000 ft. #generalaviation #AquilaA211 #at01 #Wangerooge

Weather perfect, aircraft available, FI got time. 👍

Some airwork (standard 360, 45° turns, stalls and stall turns), three traffic circuits plus two short traffic circuits.

Finally ungrounded! 🙂
