In-Aircraft Cockpit Clock?

Featured Replies

Greetings!

 

I have a perhaps clueless question about how to get a clock, any clock, into an aircraft that does not have a clock.

 

I have been logging my flight times (start from cold/dark, taxi, take-off, land, taxi, shutdown) mostly using my wrist watch, just like a real pilot!  :) However, I find that my flights are often interrupted by real-world demands (cook dinner, let the dogs out, let the dogs in, go to the loo) and it would be nice to PAUSE and have flight time stop as well. Some of my modus-interruptus scribbles can be pretty cryptic, particularly if I forget to note the start or stop time of an interruption.

 

Some of my aircraft have a clock, some don't. Is there a utility app that can pop-up a clock with a keystroke? 

 

Hopefully this is an ignoramus question, and such a feature obviously exists. The Google did not tell me much, deviating into CPU clock speeds on the eighth entry...

 

Thanks!

Go old school and use the one in the default Cub.
