Movement list

The movement list is the main view of the Flight register. It displays every recorded movement at the aerodrome in a structured, chronological list. This is where you go to read, search, and verify the aerodrome movement record.

What you see first

When you open the Flight register, the movement list is presented as a structured list of entries. Each row represents a single movement or airfield action.

The movement list shows the following columns:

The register also uses entry icons or indicators to help you distinguish between different types of movement at a glance.

More than just flights

The movement list is not limited to standard flight departures and arrivals. Depending on the type of entry, the register can also contain:

How entries reach the movement list

Entries appear in the movement list through two paths:

• Automatically from the Pilot App — when a pilot completes a departure or arrival flow in the Pilot App, the movement is recorded in the register without staff needing to do anything
• Manually by staff — when a movement was not captured through the app, or when a correction or additional airfield action needs to be recorded, staff can add entries using the manual entry function (see Manual entries and export)

Both types of entry appear in the same list and are treated equally as part of the official register.

Searching the movement list

The movement list supports fast lookup so you can find specific entries without scrolling through the full register.

You can search by:

• Aircraft registration — find all movements for a specific aircraft
• PIC — find all movements where a specific pilot was in command
• Departure airfield — find all movements that departed from a specific airfield
• Arrival airfield — find all movements that arrived at a specific airfield

How to search for a specific movement

1. Open Flight register to reach the movement list.
2. Use the search or filter controls at the top of the list.
3. Enter the aircraft registration, PIC name, or airfield you are looking for.
4. Review the filtered results to find the movement in question.
5. Check the entry details, including times, route, and remarks, to confirm it matches what you expect.

Understanding the distinction from Fleet flight logs

The movement list in the Flight register and the flight logs in Fleet serve different purposes. It is important to use the right one for the task at hand:

• Movement list (Flight register) — this is the aerodrome compliance record. It answers: what happened at this airfield? Use it when you need to verify that a departure or arrival was registered, check airfield opening or closing times, or produce a movement report for aerodrome administration.
• Flight logs (Fleet) — these are the aircraft history records. They answer: what is the complete flight history for this aircraft? Use Fleet when you need Hobbs times, billing data, maintenance scheduling, or dispatch review.

Common tasks

Verify that a specific departure was registered

1. Open Flight register.
2. Search by the aircraft registration or PIC name.
3. Look for a departure entry on the expected date.
4. Confirm that the departure time and airfield match the expected values.
5. If the entry is missing, consider adding it manually (see Manual entries and export).

Check all movements for a specific aircraft on a given day

1. Open Flight register.
2. Search by aircraft registration.
3. Review all entries for that aircraft, filtering by date if available.
4. Compare departure and arrival entries to build a complete picture of the aircraft's movements at the aerodrome.

Review airfield opening and closing entries

1. Open Flight register.
2. Scroll through or search for entries on the date in question.
3. Look for airfield opening and airfield closing entries, which are distinguished by their entry type indicator.
4. Confirm the recorded times align with the actual operational hours.

Good practice

• Use the movement list as your primary tool for verifying what happened at the aerodrome on a given day
• Keep remarks short and operationally relevant so they remain useful for follow-up
• When reviewing the register, pay attention to the entry type indicators to avoid confusing flight movements with airfield actions
• Use the search function rather than scrolling manually, especially on busy days with many entries
• If you spot a gap or an incorrect entry, follow up promptly using manual entry or by coordinating with the relevant staff
• Use related modules when your question goes beyond the aerodrome record — Fleet for aircraft-specific history and billing, or Flights for live operational status
