May 4, 20215 yr Just me? I have a bunch of entries in the log book where it says I made a flight that landed without making a takeoff 😀 😀 😀

May 4, 20215 yr I have dozens of such entries, actually most of them. Departures without Landings, Landings without Departures and flights without neither. It's a well-known "feature" which has been with us for a long time. It must depend on the startup/shutdown procedure as I observed starting from a runway (i.e. running engines) is usually acknowledged.

May 4, 20215 yr Nearly 100% of my flights now are just a landing with no takeoff. Guessing it has something to do with using Pilot2ATC instead of the built-in ATC.
May 5, 20215 yr Author I could count on my fingers the number of times I've asked ATC for landing clearance since MSFS was released, so I doubt that's it 🙂
May 5, 20215 yr Isn't that because of the pop-up screen after shutting down the battery or avionics? MSFS makes a new flight then.

Yep, and it does not always work either. At least for me, so I don't bother anymore! Once again, I don't really care. But if they ever do a Career mode people will care that it registers, IF?

May 5, 20215 yr Yeah, I've got about a third of the number of takeoffs compared to landings in my MSFS logbook. If I spawn in on the runway it'll register the takeoff. Very rarely, if I hold on the runway for a minute or so MSFS will register that too. i7-10700K; RTX 2070 Super; 16GB; P3Dv4.5HF3 & MSFS2020.

I have a bunch of entries in the log book where it says I made a flight that landed without making a takeoff 😀 😀 😀 It happens when you start your flight from parking instead of from the runway. I know, I know! Makes no sense does it? I also have quite a number of logged flights where my arrival airport is some obscure small airport up to 30 nm from the airport I landed at. And one flight where the landing was at an airport over 1,000 nm away. I have always maintained a Microsoft Excel logbook so I only look at the MSFS logbook to get the hours of flight time. I never has such issues in previous flight sims. Par for the course here!

May 5, 20215 yr I can confirm. I have about 25 takeoffs and 700 landings lol. It usually never logs a takeoff. Is it done yet? When will it be released? Will it be freeware or payware? How much will it cost? Any updates on the progress? Will it work for Xbox? Can I be a beta tester? How's the performance in VR?
July 21, 20214 yr Good to see I am not alone. Should not be that difficult to implement. Wheels leave the ground - you have taken off.😁 Johan Pienaar
July 21, 20214 yr The weirdest things is it seems to count touch and goes as landings but not take-offs yet if you land and taxi to parking and shut down it often does not count as a landing. Go figure 😄 The other interesting one that occurs if the logbook pops up automatically is if you hit continue to finish your shutdown checklist it creates an entire new log book entry with no take-off or landings.
July 22, 20214 yr I have yet to see a flightsim logbook in any sim, that really works reliably. I have maintained my own logbook for 23 years, entering the data (aircraft, origin, destination, time of flight, date) for each completed flight by hand. It takes very little time to do, and has the advantage that I can search for info on flights I did years ago. Problem solved, as far as I'm concerned. Edited July 22, 20214 yr by cobalt
