TSE Digitals Pocket Flight Log (PFL) is the #1 selling professional pilots flight log for the Pocket PC. PFL can quickly record and track important flight information. PFL has many timesaving features such as auto-formatting, auto-scrolling, default data entry, and much more. In fact, our goal is for you to be able to record your flight information with PFL as quick or quicker than filling in a traditional logbook.
PFL is the perfect flight log for military and civilian pilots. A pilot who flies in the US military Reserves and for a major airline developed PFL. Therefore, each perspective of tracking flight times has been taken into account. Additionally, PFL is flexible enough to work in many regions throughout the world.
With PFL, you can easily check for multiple flying time legalities such as 8-in-24 conflicts or maximum allowable time in 30 days. You can customize these and other options to make PFL suit your needs. Whether you need to log Night Vision Goggle time, ensure your company flight time matches your actual flight time, or you are just building a resume, PFL is the best way to log your flying time on-the-go.
Main features:
- Add Airports, Airplane Types, and Currency Events (Approaches, Landings, etc.) on the fly.
- Use a pop-up calendar for date entry.
- Automatically shows/hides the input panel based on data field needs.

CoPilot is a software application program for Palm OS handhelds that performs general aviation flight planning calculations -- the calculations that you would usually perform with a ruler, a protractor and an E6B calculator. CoPilot stores the data for flights so that you can refer back to previous trips (or modify them for new trips).
CoPilot is based on the concept of a flight. A flight consists of four components - a flight description, a route, a weight and balance calculation, and a flight plan. Each of these components has an associated form. The information that you enter on these forms is automatically stored in the flight database. The number of flights that can be kept is limited only by the total memory on the Palm handheld. CoPilot can be customized (Preferences form) to use any set of units.
The Flight Description form is used to enter basic information about the flight. The aircraft and pilot information must have been previously entered into their respective databases in order to have them available for selection on this form. This form also contains buttons to enable the user to create a new flight, display an existing flight in the database, or delete the currently displayed flight from the database.
The Route form is used to specify the legs of the flight. For each leg, the distance, the magnetic track, the magnetic heading, and the estimated time enroute are displayed. The waypoints and aircraft performance information must have been previously entered. Waypoint databases (airports, navaids, etc.) are available for download.
The calculations (e.g. time to climb, cruise speed, fuel flow) are based on the detailed performance characteristics of the aircraft as entered in the aircraft database. The aircraft performance is adjusted according to the altitude, pressure and temperature. The heading and groundspeed are based on the wind speed and direction.
The Weight & Balance form is used to calculate and plot the aircraft weight and balance for the flight. The fuel reserve is calculated using the fuel consumption from the Route form and the fuel on board which is entered on this form.
The Flight Plan form is used to collect the data that is required when calling the FSS to file a flight plan. It supports the standard ICAO flight plan format as well as the Canadian and American formats. Most of the form is automatically completed using information from the aircraft database, the pilot database, the Flight Description form, the Route form, and the Weight & Balance form.
What would the flight time be in a different aircraft? Simply select a different aircraft on the Flight Description form and all of the information is automatically updated. Is the aircraft out of balance? Simply move some weight around on the Weight & Balance form and see how the graph changes.
CoPilot also provides a number of E6B functions. Crosswind and headwind components can be calculated using the Cross Wind form. Simply enter the wind and the runway.
Density Altitude and True Airspeed can be calculated using the DA & TAS form. The temperature can either be the true temperature or the indicated temperature (CoPilot will compensate for the air compressibility).
The Winds Aloft form can be used to calculate the winds. Enter the track, heading, airspeed and groundspeed.
Enhancements:
- Fixed a number of problems with 5-way navigation. If you own a Palm device with a keyboard, you should now be able to do virtually everything without using the stylus.
- On devices with a keyboard, all input fields that are numeric now default to having the numeric shift set automatically.
- Fixed a problem that could cause a reset when entering a ground leg.
- Added an optional form feed between the major sections of the flight when printing the information.
- Removed the 4K limit on the size of files that can be "Printed" to a memo file. New versions of the Palm OS have removed this memo size limit.
