Swipe Actions

Flight cards in the Logbook have buttons hidden on each side. Slide a card sideways to show them, so you can act on a flight without opening it. This is especially useful on a busy day of flying with several legs.

Swipe left to reveal Duplicate, Next and Return

Slide the card	Button	Colour	What it does
Right	Delete	Red	Deletes the flight, after you confirm
Left	Duplicate	Teal	Starts a new flight on the same route
Left	Next	Teal	Starts the next leg from where this flight landed
Left	Return	Teal	Starts the return leg, with the airports reversed

To close the buttons without using them, slide the card back or scroll the list.

Swipe Right: Delete

1. Slide a flight card to the right to show the red Delete button.
2. Tap Delete.
3. Wader asks Delete this flight? Tap Delete again to confirm, or cancel to keep it.

Deleting is permanent and cannot be undone. The flight is removed from the cloud too, so it disappears from all your devices and the web.

• A flight signed by another pilot: Wader asks Delete signed flight? first, because the signature is deleted with the flight.
• A flight shared with you by a crew member: deleting it removes it from your logbook only. The pilot who shared it keeps it.
• No internet connection: a flight that is already saved to the cloud can only be deleted while you are online. Wader tells you if you are offline.

Danger

Deleted flights cannot be recovered. Check that you are deleting the right flight before you confirm.

Swipe Left: Start a New Flight

Slide a flight card to the left to show three teal buttons. Each one starts a new flight from the one you slid and opens it, ready for you to complete. Time fields are always left empty for you to fill in.

Duplicate

Starts a new flight with the same departure, arrival and alternate airports. Everything else, including the aircraft, crew and times, is left empty.

Use it when you fly the same route again on another day.

Next

Starts the next leg:

• the departure airport is the arrival airport of the flight you slid
• the aircraft and crew are carried over
• the planned departure time is set 30 minutes after the flight you slid arrived at the gate

Fill in the arrival airport and the times. This is ideal for back to back legs on a multi-sector day.

Return

Starts the return leg of an out and back:

• the departure and arrival airports are reversed
• the aircraft and crew are carried over
• the planned departure time is set 30 minutes after the flight you slid arrived at the gate

Notes

• On a phone, the new flight is added to your logbook as soon as it opens. If you do not need it, swipe right on it and delete it.
• On iPad, the new flight opens in the pane beside the list and is only added to your logbook when you tap Save. See Wader on iPad.
• Simulator sessions only have Delete. Duplicate, Next and Return are for flights.
• An incomplete flight (amber edge) has the same buttons as any other flight.
• While you are selecting several flights, swiping is turned off so every tap ticks a card. Tap Cancel to swipe again.

Tip: For a day with several legs, log your first flight fully, then slide it left and tap Next to start each following leg. Even quicker: log the whole day at once with Multi-sector.

Tip: To delete several flights at once, see Selecting Several Flights.
