In NuvolOps, there’s a new Dispatch Check that will be set to “Review” every time data is automatically updated in ForeFlight: image-20240801-184004.png

...

We retrieve data from ForeFlight and update it in NuvolOps every 5 15 minutes:

  1. Once a route has been selected in ForeFlight, the Flight Time will get corrected in NuvolOps

  2. Once the flight plan has been filed, we retrieve it and save it as the ATC Flight Plan, which then becomes available in the Flight Board, the Crew Brief and the Crew App.

The following information will be available on the Flight Leg:

  • Link to ForeFlight Dispatch

  • Date and time of last time data was sent to ForeFlight

  • Information about if we’re sending updates for Flight Leg details, PAX and Crew.

    • Modifying these, will only affect that particular Flight Leg
