FTDT App for Canada
Sorry if this has been asked already but I'm looking for an app that will track Flight Time Duty Time with the new CARs. Specifically, something we can upload our schedules to. I've seen a few apps out there that permit this in other regions but have yet to come across something similar here in Canada. Is there such an app? Anyone willing to design one?

And fltduty.xls was great in 98, but has needed an update for awhile
Re: FTDT App for Canada
Yeah, well there must be someone out there that could design an app for our phones that we could use personally. I agree, the regs can be a bit overwhelming to understand. Something similar to the EASA FLT Calc on iOS would be ideal. Just saying, it would be handy for all if someone designed one or knew of one that us Canadians could use. Seems like they're out there for Americans and Europeans already.

The ALPA app is free and has a FDT calculator in it.

That app has limited functionality for non-alpa members. The FDT is one of the features thats limited to only ALPA.goingmissed wrote: ↑Mon Aug 01, 2022 11:05 am The ALPA app is free and has a FDT calculator in it.

Does this support roster upload or must you plug in your day? Looking for something similar to the EASA FLT Calc app, which permits this.PRM1 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 02, 2022 9:09 pm Max Duty is great! Developed by a pilot for us pilots.

https://skylegs.com/ supports Canadian duty regulations, including the new 703 ones when they come into effect.
As an AvCanada discussion grows longer:
-the probability of 'entitlement' being mentioned, approaches 1
-one will be accused of using bad airmanship

This is from their website you quoted…digits_ wrote: ↑Wed Aug 03, 2022 8:43 am https://skylegs.com/ supports Canadian duty regulations, including the new 703 ones when they come into effect.
“Skylegs Cabin and Flight crew app is free for all organisation that use Skylegs platform.” This is just a schedule app that your company must use. Doesn’t help much here…
So I’m assuming there isn’t much out there then. Bummer.
Re: FTDT App for Canada
It's more than a schedule app. But yes it's something that's implemented on company level.fruz wrote: ↑Thu Aug 04, 2022 6:10 amThis is from their website you quoted…digits_ wrote: ↑Wed Aug 03, 2022 8:43 am https://skylegs.com/ supports Canadian duty regulations, including the new 703 ones when they come into effect.

I am curious though, why would you need a standalone duty app? Your company is just as responsible to keep you within limits as you are.

Re: FTDT App for Canada
haha, I’m not naive that’s why. Take a read through the posts above. There’s a reason ALPA has their own app. Don’t be so naive.
I’m not going to my company to have them “buy in” or subscribe at their level. I’m looking for an app that crew can monitor themselves like ALPA crew do.

Our company uses this:

I don’t like it personally but that’s not saying much.
I would hope they update it when the new rules come into effect.
