Logging Simulator Time

How to log simulator sessions in Wader.

Wader supports logging simulator sessions separately from regular flights. Simulator entries appear in your logbook list alongside flights but with a distinct card style so they are easy to identify at a glance.


Creating a simulator entry

  1. On the Logbook screen, tap the + button to open a new entry.

  2. Set the date (the date defaults to today. Tap it to change it if you are logging a past or future session).

  3. Select the simulator qualification level that matches your session.

  4. Fill in the remaining fields — simulator registration, date, aircraft type, crew, airports, times, and logbook details — as you would for a regular flight.

  5. Tap Save.
