iPhone and iPad
Approaches are logged in your entries and you can use these to help capture the types of approaches that you fly every flight.
Once you tap a flight to see its details, scroll down to the Operations section and here is where the Approaches entries live. If you don't see them you can configure the Operations section to show up to 10 Approach fields.
You can configure the Operations section to show many approaches as you want by going to to the Flights and Entries section (the list of your flights), select any entry, Tap the "..." in the top right corner → Configure Fields → Scroll to Operations → Configure Section → Approach (Select as many as you'll need!).
macOS
Approaches are logged in entries in the Logbook Tab
Once you click on a flight to see its details, on the right hand side, scroll down to the Operations section until you see Approach 1.
You can configure the Operations section to show many approaches as you want by clicking, at the very top left of your screen, on LogTen → Settings → Operations → Approach (Select how many you'd like to see in your Entries)
Logging Approaches
You only have to log the quantity, although there are more fields available that you can use:
Quantity
Approach Type
Runway
Airport
LogTen Makes logging easier! The quantity automatically defaults to "1" making this field auto-filled for most of your logging situations. Additionally, if you enter an Approach into an entry that already has the From & To fields populated, LogTen will automatically fill the To airport into the Approach Airport field.
Quantity
This is the number of times that the approach was made. For example, if you performed an ILS approach 3 times to the same runway at the same place, you can type 3 in Quantity as opposed to using the Approach 1, Approach 2, and Approach 3 fields to log multiple quantities of the same approach.
Approach Type
Choose the type of approach made here. Many different types of precision and non-precision approaches are available by default. If the type of approach desired is not listed, type any text you want into the APR field.
Runway
The runway used for the Approach can be entered into this field. For approaches with no runway assigned, type in other identification if desired - for example, "A" or "B".
Airport
Type the identifier of the airport the approach was made to in the ICAO field (ICAO may be different depending on what the preferred Place identifier is). As you type, a pop-up window listing places will appear. Choose the airport that the approach was made to, or add a new one if this place has not listed.
Data Format
The Approach 1 field in the grid view will now be filled out with the approach data. The data is always in the same format: Quantity; Approach Type; Runway; Airport.
Smart Groups
This approach data is used in the default Instrument currency group in LogTen. You MUST have the appropriate Approaches and Holds populated in the entries in order for this Smart Group to work properly.
