LogTen uses the Home Base field to determine the Acclimated Timezone. Home Base is an existing field within the Places tab. To make this field visible, go into any entry within the Places tab then configure fields to display Home Base.
If you do not already have a Home Base designated then you will be asked to "Set Home Base" when you first display the FAR117 feature. Selecting the Set Home Base link will allow you to quickly select any airport as the Home Base from the Places list that pops up.
Note: While Home Base is used for Acclimated Timezone purposes it may sometimes be different than your actual "Home Base" and can manually be changed at any time. When you change your Home Base within this feature it will remain this way until it is changed back.
The importance of making sure your Home Base is set to your acclimated timezone can be seen in the following example. Below you can see that FDP starts in KJFK at 630 however, the Home Base in this logbook is set to KLAX. That would make the acclimated timezone start time 0330. Using our Unaugmented table you can see that for a 2 segment day this would change the Max FDP from 13 hours (using JFK) to 9 hours (using KLAX).
